A quick 3 pages of comic to summarize the prologue of Revelation: 75... giving you a brief idea of what is going on in the beginning. For specific details of the prologue, I will do that later in a text-passage novel style.
For a side note, I did the model kit of the Black Astray quite long ago and it can be found in this link. As for the mecha in the last panel of the last page... Yes! It's the next MA of the story. I think most of you have already guessed what MA is that, the shape of it is very obvious, ain't it? So up next is to finalize the design of it. Till then...

| Alpha Murasame: Red Widow? |
| Saturday, February 24, 2007 |
Actually this red color scheme was done before the final low-visibility color scheme of the Black Widow. I took the red a bit overboard and ended up having a lot of red instead of just the cockpit and the ALTER's compartment. I scrapped this color scheme because it doesn't match the color placement of a real Black Widow, plus I didn't want people to misunderstand that I am a fanboy of Char or Athrun(no, I don't mean that being a fan of these 2 characters is a sin...).
Although I did not use this color scheme but will still keep it in case I have a need for it later on... perhaps as the color scheme for the ace pilot of a certain Alpha Murasame squadron etc.

| Concept Art: Alpha Murasame |
|
Some initial rough design sketches of the Alpha Murasame. Seems like the final design wasn't from any of these. lol
Top picture:
I took away half of each leg and it's looking good, in fact I quite like the design on the left. I played a bit on the wing design too... they look ok in the drawings but definitely not ok in the physical model. They look really weird without half of each leg.
Bottom picture:
I retained the full legs in these set of design but took away the feet and replace them with thrusters, figuring that the feet will be of no use since it is a MA-only and not a transformable MS. The left design pretty much made it to the final cut as the Mass Production Model.

| Character: Lynn Taylor "Black Widow" |
| Tuesday, February 20, 2007 |
An illustration of Lynn Taylor in pilot suit. Hmm... somehow the colors of the suit and her hairstyle really make her looks like a villain more than a protagonist... but well, I think the colors suits well for the name "Black Widow", don't you think?
By the way, it's really tedious coloring using a mouse. Hope some kind soul sponsor me a Wacom tablet soon. hehe
 
Did 2 wallpapers of size 1280x1024 during the Lunar New Year holidays. You are free to download them but no alteration of the artwork please... thanks and enjoy! =)Labels: Black Widow, character, Lynn Taylor, Revelation 75 |

| Concept Art: Pilot Helmet |
|
I have given a new look to the pilot helmet of ORB, now it looks more like a real pilot helmet rather than the usual space helmet design. Although the design has changed but it can be still used in space.Labels: concept art, Revelation 75 |

| Alpha Murasame: Black Widow |
|
I have completed the Alpha Murasame at last! I named it Black Widow because of the ALTER-system(ah! I forgot the sketches of how the ALTER-system will look like when it is in operation... ermm next time then). After deciding on the name, I continue to choose a color scheme that resembles it. I had it in low-visibility colors and placed a red on the ALTER's compartment, simulating the famous red marking at the Black Widow's abdomen... with the overall look resembling the Black Widow itself.
If you have noticed, the name of the pilot for the Black Widow is a female's and I will be designing her together with some conceptual works next.

| Alpha Murasame: Mass Production Model |
|
Finally a new Murasame look... the mass production model! Hmm... not really something new as I just changed the forward-swept wings to delta wings. Felt that it's kinda boring to see the mass production model same as the new prototype Black Widow, but I kept the original color scheme as I quite like it.
There are quite a few differences between the new prototype and the mass production model with the most notable are the delta wings. Next is the central 'fin' compartment, the mass production model has the original Type 72 high-energy beam cannon, they are not equipped with the ALTER-system as it is an experimental new weapon only available for testing on the Black Widow. This model also lacks 3 extra small thrusters and they are replaced with 3 connector-compartments for future upgrades... similar gimmicks like the Wizard packs or the Striker packs.
Next up is another MA but this time it's from Zaft. So till then....
