Strike Freedom: Ale Modificataby =sandrum

Digital Art / 3-Dimensional Art / Characters / Machines & Robots

I think it's "Liberta Modifica" in the show....
Alright, this is where I explain what in the world is up with the model.
First off, this mesh is based heavily off of the Master Grade (MG) plastic model of the same name, especially proportionally. However, diversions are made in different places in order to give it more of a menacing look. Most of the modifications are ideas from magazines/sites etc. For example:
The shoulder verniers are attached to intakes on the opposite end, explaining the bulge out of the armor. This idea was from dengeki hobby magazine (actually from an image at a model show from that magazine).
The Head is based off the MG but the size is altered a bit because I thought the MG head looked "cherub-ish".
The Decals (stylised 'LM' insignias) are based off an idea by NAOKI (a pseudonym I think) of dengeki hobby magazine in a scratch kit he made last year.
Also from NAOKI is the idea of giving each DRAGOON wing a name of an ARCH ANGEL. I tried to choose names that NAOKI did not, leaving out AZRAEL - (the [good] patron angel of death and suffering) for reasons probably clear to those who watched the first series.
The skeleton for the wing is based very loosely off of Katoki's design for the Cosmic Era figure of the same name. I don't really like the way it looks at all in the MG plastic model version.
Finally, the pseudo-frame in the DRAGOONs is absent in the MG version, but something I thought it could use and would be interesting if they would glow after detaching from the Mobile Suit. This idea was also inspired from Dengeki Hobby, but uses the leg frame I made for the original Freedom as a jump off point -- specifically the booster in the lower leg. The rest consists of the gun barrel, generator, clamps (for the wing skeleton). Hence, "Ale Modificata" - Modified Wings. The Cockpit is being constructed at the moment so it's not "completely" finished.
As I said though...pretty much everyone who's done gundam in 3d has done a Strike Freedom... just trying it out as well

I love your all of your work, it is beyond amazing and is easily the best I have ever seen.

I am actually going to get a tattoo of Strike Freedom but I haven't been able to find a picture that I like to take to the tattoo artist. Could you change the pose of this so this it was from the front, with the wings open but the dragoons still docked on the Gundam, and also with the beam rifles in each hand so the rail guns are on the hips instead of the back. I would gladly pay you through paypal if you want. Just private message me if you are interested and I will send you my email address to work things out.

Holy fuck...
You should get yourself on the Bandai development team.
I'd love to see your models in future Gundam video games.
This looks about...30x better than anything I've seen in Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2.

Bandai has to sell kits, I guess.

It is very cheap, but LEGEND seems equally so, and in that case I can't say too much.
