Here's something cool I just learned about, concept art for an expanded core fighter and backpack in greco that ended up scrapped, done by akiman. Neat.

The GM Underground Combat Type is a GM Cold Climate but with drills for hands and a new headlamp. Incredible.

As far as I can tell the comic that comes from was a short one volume thing thats a parody of creamy mami and I wanna read it. Magical Ensign Blaster Mari Update: thats a drill on its head too.

Level Slide posted:Granted, you can't exactly sell "compelling characters" for money. they actually have never tried very hard to offer character goods which is lame because there's a huge untapped market for it, they just wanna sell to the toy robot crowd more

the good gundam are turn a and war in the pocket

# ¿ Nov 4, 2015 18:24 |

war in the pocket is entirely a character drama exploring a single dude and his relationship with a kid that looks up to him and you could excise the setting entirely and the story would be the same, and that universality is to its benefit

Kanos posted:They pushed character merch really hard for the SEED shows and it sold like gangbusters. They tried to bottle lightning again with 00 and do the same thing except it didn't do nearly as well; it wasn't coincidental that 00's endings were Pretty Boy Gundam Meister Fashion Catwalk followed by Pretty Boy Gundam Meisters Hanging Out On A Beach Giving Each Other Haircuts. i dont think actively planning around characters you can sell is the right mindset either because there's no real actual path to predict what makes a character popular, lots of the time people latch onto minor characters because of some small facet that they identify with. its better to just write a bunch of cool characters and see what happens.

ImpAtom posted:There is literally not a single 50-episode Gundam series that doesn't have terrible pacing. Even if G-Reco got an extra 12 (which is already a huge increase over the current lineup) would be more than enough. It would be awful if they had to pad out the series to literally double its length. Just as an aside: Vifam has really good pacing and constantly moves forward and is 48 episodes

There already are tons of gundam wargames but they're all hex and chit and from the 80s. They rule.

Sharkopath posted:There already are tons of gundam wargames but they're all hex and chit and from the 80s. They rule. Tsukuda Hobby put them out and they are complicated as hell but supremely cool. Yoshiyuki Takani did the art for a lot of the covers. They all looked like this when you started playing, since Tsukuda Hobby based a lot of games around the same hex and chit style. A lot of the games started off with way less units though, that one is a simulation of all the forces present at the end of the one year war, during the final battle of A Baoa Qu

It doesn't get better if what you want and mainly care about is action and violence, It's a character drama through and through which is what sets it apart from the other gundam series.

A person whose favorite anime is Thunderbolt is not going to enjoy it, generally speaking. The heart is Al and Bernie's familial interaction and growing care for each other in all those quiet scenes. Sharkopath fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Oct 10, 2016 |

ninjewtsu posted:I don't only care about action and violence. But the other stuff I care about is mostly dramatic emotion, and war in the pocket has been pretty subdued on that as well. Yeah it's not really full of impactful and dramatic emotional conflict either, its a very subdued series. That's what I mean by it being the near exact opposite of something like thunderbolt which is all intense emotion and action. It has one dramatic scene of violence punctuating it in the finale, and that contrast is often all people remember which is why Hamburger LOL is so popular a catchphrase.
