>Tomino deliberately sought out a designer who wouldn't follow the traditions already established in mecha anime. He sought out one who would create futuristic designs with some engineering feasibility. They don't fit in with Gundam by design.
That guy is specifically Syd Mead. He's better know for his work as the concept artist for Blade Runner, Tron, and Aliens. He also did work on Elysium and directly inspired some Star Wars designs with his industrial design work.

That's a lie. He designed the suits and other did some clean up work on them so they were a bit easier to animate. Pic rel are some of his concept sketches that he did by hand. You don't go out of the way to hire Mead to not use his stuff.
