Twin Nemos: The Veteran and The Newb (WIP)

[NWAN322]

Here’s some work in progress shots for the sub-units for my Zeta Gundam diorama. They’re based on the HG Shaldoll Custom. To fit with the almost Universal Century theme that I’m going for (or in @RealG’s terms: Gqwuuuuuuxing), I kitbashed components of the HGUC Nemos (most notably their shoulders, hands, shields, and backpacks).

I’m only partially through the detailing stage. I tried to make it look like one of them had their arm shot off in combat, with a quick field replacement hence the messed up torso and heavily kit bashed arm. The other one is probably going to be only slightly weathered (just some chipping at most). The “veteran” is going to have a lot of carbon scoring, chips and dents, and that giant blast hole through the right side of its torso.

Anyways, let me know what you think!

That made me think of Kazuhisa Kondo’s “MS Battlefield” series of manga. The G-Commander was a ground combat Nu Gundam with enormous hover equipment and included two trailing pods that I thought were ICBM silos. It turned out that the pods contained AI-controlled GMs that were meant to provide support for the G-Commander.

I look forward to seeing what you do to those Nemos!

I was thinking something from Solomon express at first but dang the g-commander exceeded my expectations. It’s a massive unit
