Gundam 00 Raiser and Setsuna F. Seiei
I really like how most of the Gundam machines in any Gundam series always go through level two transformations. :D (Big Grin)
Especially for the "main" Gundam of the story. :D (Big Grin)
They tend to develop wing like apparatuses on their backs and end up looking like angels who will save the world from evil. XD
We see this in Gundam Freedom, Wing Gundam Custom, G Gundam (with that rainbow halo on his back) and of course our Gundam here - 00 Gundam Raiser with the 0-Raiser jet engine at its back acting as the "wing" contraption. :D (Big Grin)
I love how those GN particles shoot out from 00 Gundam's back when it's activated. It really amplifies the winged guardian look. (Although I also loved the GN particle output of one of the Throne Gundams - the one piloted by the girl. That was awesome too. :D (Big Grin)
) Those large rings of light are also a great touch. They look better in the anime off course, they're ginormous. XD
And I just can't draw 00 Gundam without his pilot now, wouldn't I? :D (Big Grin)
So there, Setsuna looking fierce - just wanted to draw him as if he's ready for battle and is damn serious about it. :D (Big Grin)
That hair of his is always such a fun thing to draw and color. XD
And uhm... Oh no. Maybe I should've drawn Saji Crossroad too. I mean he's part of the tag-team - the pilot of the 0-Raiser Jet. XD
Ah! Sorry Saji, I'll draw you in another fan art soon. :D (Big Grin)
Btw, I'm almost done with Gundam 00 Second Season. How are things gonna end! :D (Big Grin)
OMG! I can't contain my excitement!
Also, it's funny how Setsuna always says the word "Gundam" throughout the series. XD
It's like everytime he sees anything important he'll pause and say "Gundam". Laughing my ass off!
