Description
Series: Model Graphix Gundam WARS III: Gundam Sentinel MSVThis is the Zeta Plus C1 [BST]: "Hummingbird" in demonstration colors. Basically it is the Zeta Plus A1, but with both C1 (space use) upgrades and BST (booster) future grades. The C1 parts consist of fuel tanks on the wings and a smart beam gun directly attached to the shield.
The Hummingbird parts consist of high speed use upgrades. Boosters on the Arms and in place of the Lower Legs are very similar to those of the S-Gundam Bst or Ex-S (or Deep Striker) with a crucial difference. The boosters on the Hummingbird are modified to transform with the machine. For this, fuel tanks that are usually IN the booster housing are combined and instead placed under the torso, the pelvic area of which is also reinforced with a different armor plate. In their place are mechanical components allowing the boosters to rotate and leave space for transformation. The arm boosters are each equipped with a pair of cannons. The C1 shield -already equipped with the Smart Beam Gun- also has the S-Gundam smart beam gun attached as well (the black weapon). Though the machine can also equip the beam rifle that the A1 normally uses, I'm not actually sure that the dual smart beam guns can be fired accurately with one arm. I'm fairly certain it requires both arms to keep them steady.
Basically the point of this unit is to exercise hit and run tactics similarly employed by the Hazel-Rah though the firepower is substantial. However, this is a Mobile Suit Variation and it's never able to see combat in the story. If it had, the machine would be a mid-gray color like the C1.
A larger/wider/cleaner version of this image is supposed to be the index page in the ol art book. I cut it off a bit just to be a hassle

I love the overall design, but because of the amount of detail and overlapping parts, some of the form is lost in the process and becomes difficult to read

Yeah, that's a bit difficult to resolve at nearly every camera angle. I was actually going to make it one solid color (the way it's supposed to be) but it was even more difficult to make out. In the end I settled for the demo version.

that makes sense then. Sometimes over-detailed leads to lack of detail

Yeah, I'd have liked to have seen this one at least. I'm still hoping that something gets done for that in the future.

Let's hope so since we are missing out lots of excellent Mobile Suits & Mobile Armours from MSV.

OMG! This is the best scene ever! The flight boosters were nicely done and the moon is kinda realistic. Superb!

This is delicious! *munch munch*
I already mentioned how awesome I think the Zeta line is and the Hummingbird is like the behemoth of the line. Another super sweet piece by you.
Any chance you have this floating around in a 1024 x 768 resolution? I could really go for a hot wallpaper of this.
