| Wednesday, August 15, 2007 |
Another update since last month's. This is the WW2 propeller fighter plane appearance, after the 2 remote weapon pods are detached. What's left now is to map the 2 remote weapon pods and the Total Chaos will be completed. Can't wait ya!

| Total Chaos: preview 05 |
| Tuesday, July 17, 2007 |
Finally an update on Total Chaos. Most textures seen here were actually done quite sometime ago, just that some minor parts aren't completed yet, so I did not post an update. I added paint scratches on the grey parts.
The texturing of Total Chaos has dragged on way too long... must finish it soon, so that I can start work on other stuffs.

A little update on the texture mapping after a few weeks off 3D. The pilot's logo can be seen and is code-named "Grim Reaper". More to come... soon.Labels: MA, Revelation 75, Total Chaos |

The 3D model has been done and what's left now is to map and texture it. I'm gonna do proper texturing this time... wish me luck!Labels: MA, Revelation 75, Total Chaos |

| Total Chaos: preview 02 |
| Tuesday, March 27, 2007 |
A small update. This is how it looks like without the remote weapon pods but still some stuffs need to be adjusted for the final look. I replaced the side thrusters at the back with funnel-type thrusters... that's just so Gundam eh?
Now what's left are the 2 remote weapon pods... so till then.Labels: MA, Revelation 75, Total Chaos |

A little preview on the 3D Total Chaos. Since Total Chaos has lesser parts, I shall finish this faster than Alpha Murasame... hopefully.Labels: MA, Revelation 75, Total Chaos |

| Total Chaos: Design Sketches |
| Friday, March 02, 2007 |
 click on image to enlarge for details
When I 1st did concept of it in my mind, I had images of WW2 fighters appearing and I thought "hey! it will be pretty cool if I have this MA in those WW2 propeller fighter style" plus the Alpha Murasame has a modern design of a fighter plane with forward swept wings, the contrast will be great... modern fighter vs WW2 fighter.
For the actual design seen here, I took only the backpack of the Chaos Gundam and gave it a pair of wings from the Force Silhouette. I'm keeping it simple as most WW2 fighters ain't complicated or fanciful in appearance. It should look more like a WW2 fighter after the remote weapon pods detached from the main body... but if this happens, there won't be any weaponry left on the main body. To counter that, I gave it 2 20mm CIWS guns at the nose, making it look even more like a WW2 fighter now. The rest of the details can be found in the picture above.
Now that the design is out, next up will be the 3D creation and hopefully the model kit too. Gotta enjoy the weekend before starting on the 3D, so till then...

Rough sketches of Total Chaos, a new MA from Zaft. Played a bit with variations and finally decided on the design at the lower right hand corner.Labels: concept art, MA, Revelation 75, Total Chaos |

| 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.

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.

| 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....

| Friday, January 12, 2007 |
The 1st preview of the 3D Alpha Murasame. Progress has been really slow as I felt like a real beginner in 3D because I have not been touching on 3D for 4 years. Now I am getting back the hang of it, so hopefully progress will speed up soon.Labels: Alpha Murasame, MA, Revelation 75 |

| Alpha Murasame: Design Sketches |
| Thursday, December 28, 2006 |
 click on image to enlarge for details I have been thinking of creating a Gundam story for sometime now and it happens that I am doing my portfolio at the moment... so I thought why not make this as part of my portfolio too. I had been drafting a side-story of Gundam Seed eversince I created the crucified Black Astray(I sounds like a fanboy... haha). Now I have more ideas after watching Gundam Seed Destiny and Stargazer, so I decided to do a story that is after the 2nd war... hence the title Revelation:75 Yes! If you have guessed it... the 75 means C.E.75. The story will revolves around the Black Astray but I will try not to make it another Astray side-story. There will be ORB and ZAFT mechas but I will not include the EAF as I assume there will be no more EAF after the 2nd war. This Alpha Murasame will be the 1st mecha from ORB... and I will reveal more soon. I will be doing a 3D(already in progress) and a model kit of this Alpha Murasame and I have planned quite a few other stuffs for this side-story too, but will see how it goes as the project progress... who knows, I may just do a short graphic novel of it.
