Ishigaki has been sharing precious never seen before proposed Gundam designs on twitter and no one made a thread about it.

Sad

>>23315981 (OP)

I was considering it when he posted the Victory Gundam land battleship and monowheels but then remembered that old /m/ is dead and I can't be assed to carry a thread.
It's some pretty great stuff though, as expected of a master.

>>23315981 (OP)
>>23315984
I've been watching his stuff silently for a while now, not just him but other creators too as well. The amount of production details and sketches they share is insane, but it's a bit pointless to make a thread here since the average /m/ user would rather shitpost about the same 7 shows they watched because they were following some gay chart.

>>23315981 (OP)
I'm banned from twitter for inciting violence against the president

>>23316028
Nu-/m/ is a borderline cesspit. Not that it was great before, but it certainly is shallower than it ever was previously.

Aw these are fucking based as hell. I love these sleeker yet simultaneously bulky designs. Any info and what they might have been for?

>>23316569
They're giving me Victory vibes.

These look like Gundams from a Warhammer 40k AU fanfic or something

>>23315981 (OP)
This is some absolutely gorgeous stuff, it's a pity it was not worth sharing with /m/ because of /m/'s own decay. Suppose I should've looked for greener pastures when the site went down.

>>23315982
Samus Aran build

>>23316641
I felt the same but didn't wanna assume just in case someone research-mogs me
Makes sense i like these though, cuz victory gundam is one of my fav designs

>>23316569
A show proposal from 1995 known as "Mobile Grappler Gundam A", one of many projects from that era that didn't pan out.

>>23315982
>>23315981 (OP)
They feel very post-Victory UC

>>23315984
This happened to me when he posted concepts for some sort of American Gundam. I forget the context and I might have that wrong but I love the goggle/sunglasses Gundam he posted.

>>23316028
>not just him but other creators too as well.

Who else are you guys following? I think i just follow him and the eva/gquuuux designer and I'd love to see more.

>>23316900
This guy looks just the like McDonalds mech

I love these face designs a lot for some reason

>>23316909
Last one in this series of sketches

>>23316569
>>23316801

>I remembered the Mobile Grappler "Gundam A", but this was a sketch for the 1995 Gundam proposal that I didn't even remember. I vaguely remember it being requested by the studio's setting production staff. The proposal was about a space drifting planetary exploration for children.

>>23316915
I really like the V-Fin mask look. Surprised nothing I can think of ever used the concept.

His conceptual F92 Gundam is now one of new favorite Gundams.

>>23316900
>some sort of American Gundam
This project would eventually become G-Saviour

>>23317091
Some guy created a gunpla based on it

>>23317091
>>23317278
looks like shit, lmao.
More realistic designs like 86 are way better than this.

>>23316028
>>23315981 (OP)
I don’t get why they can’t make artbook filled with gundam sketches and designs. All other big (mecha) anime does that.
The closest thing we have for Gundam is Hidetoshi Ohmori book.

Is it some weird Sunrise rule?

>>23317382
Like afraid that someone will steal their designs?

>>23317382
>All other big (mecha) anime does that
Not really.

>>23316909
>>23316915
Getter Gundam...

>>23316997
mark iii halpuley

>>23317394
Don’t reply if you don’t know what you’re talking about. Eva, Macross, etc. have artbooks filled with design and concept works. No such thing for gundam.

>>23317448
I don't think you understand the sheer magnitude of discarded designs a single show has, let alone a mechanical designer. Just because Eva has a few groundwork artbooks it doesn't mean that everything Yamashita has done is out there, in fact he releases a ton of never before seen shit in twitter.

>>23317448
>No such thing for gundam.
the fuck are you talking about? every couple of years some fuckers will post scans but never provide the name of the different books full of gundam concept art

this one is page 25 of something

>>23317448
then this one is page 62 to 65 of something else

>>23317448
here's page 79 of something else

>>23317448
this fucking thing, someone took a screencap of apparently pages 110-111 of some book from the extras menu on some recent blu-ray boxset for gundam X

pages 112-113 of some book that included the original concept sketches for 0079 vehicles and characters

>>23317448
pages 96-97 of another book just jam-packed with ZZ concept art

Did this design ever get a kit? A custom?

>>23317477
No, there's way too many magazine art that are like minor restyles to keep track of

>>23317487

>>23317458
>>23317460
>>23317462
>>23317465
>>23317466
>>23317471
pretty sure all of these are on e-hentai

>>23317448
Nigga, we always got those.

This is the earlier designs of the Seed freedom film

U>>23317448
The really rare stuff is for non gundam stuff, but gundam always had books with it

>>23316909
>>23316915
These are superb. The side profile of the design on the right in the second image looks so human-like to me, moreso than usual.

>>23317278
What a beauty, the shelf nozzles look much better when they're more pronounced that way. Although I prefer the softer edges in the line art.

>>23317298
>>23317278
It's the fins everywhere that mess it up
Get rid of the fins and the design is really clean

>>23316028
>The amount of production details and sketches they share is insane
I remember a few years ago, like in 2023, Yamashita shared that the Evangelions are more akin to plants than animals.

>>23318847
Do you still have that? it sounds cool. I tried going backwards in his gallery on twitter but it only goes back so far and is drowned in cute cat pictures. It might just be a glitch on my machine though cause I thought nothing got deleted there.

I love Mamaru Nagano concept art. I didnt save anything Gundam related off hand so have some Phantasy Star

>>23316915
thats just weltall

>>23318981
I found this design by him for some weird Muv Luv novel that has Weltalls chest for some reason. He actually mentioned it himself

>>23317452
For example there are discarded Annon desings for the proto-Sazabi that are just floating there. Gundam has a lot of compillation but probably the only the ones that passed the selection phase and not just rough designs.

>>23318967
Cute quebs

>>23319240
They recently release a whole book with it for the first time. There was no sazabi early design by anno just ships and gundam

>>23318958
twitter is weird these days. I doon't know w hat Elon's team did, but they fucked somesthing up so now you are limited in how far back you can search someone's media tab.

I really wish I had saved those posts he made because that shit was absolutely mind-blowing.

>>23319463
they literally got mad about people being able to dig up old posts to embarrass others so they've been sabotaging the platform for a while, "public platform" and freedom of speech my ass

>>23318989
That's Muv Luv? Looks more like something out of Diebuster

>>23316909
This reminds me of the Amakusa

>>23315981 (OP)
Kyoshi Takigawa is another good one to follow for some behind the scenes art

>>23319376
I really like the G40 Zakus

I lost my /m/ folder but Yasuhiro Moriki has some really cool drawings on his Twitter for things like a 70s-style mecha base, a Sonic X airship with a Thunderbird 2 runway, and a bunch of racecars from a cancelled anime. I don't use Twitter anymore so I can't find them. Thanks for the thread; lineart and cancelled designs are really cool.

>>23323030
Twoucan has duplicate posts from his twitter on their site. Just keep pressing the "more" button on the bottom of the page.

You can still search back in time, you just have to use the advanced search hamburger. It's annoying for sure, and was definitely made to discourage casual research and archiving.

>>23319376
>plamo never ever
It's not a good feeling
