OH OH OH OH um....this one is based off, oh, I cant remeber teh name exactly I think its the most basic model but I know its what was used in teh original attack on teh colonise in the first episode.....*whimpers* zaku cookies so good

I meant the woman in the foreground.

oh...ummm......no clue. >_< but shes a good looker for a zeon fighter. the detail on her and the zaku is pretty good

Thanks. Sieg Zeon!

Tidus' eyebrows..........

You?

You get Zaku cookie. ^ ^ I sent the artist a pic of myself and he made a digital model of myself. ^ ^

I shall Cherish the Zaku Cookie.

I prefer the cute human version. Can we see more of her?

I actually have a few extra pics, but I don't want to post them here since they're not furry.

so?

...I likes the bunny just a smidgen better.

Oh, that's gotta be Dusty! I just so imagine you like that...

Which, on an off note, is why I kept drawing Dusty blonde, because I couldn't get that outta my head because I just thought of YOU as blonde, and for all intents and purposes, Dusty is YOU.... My mind works in odd circles.

Well that explains it. ^ ^ Still, I love the art you and your sis has done for me. *noms* And good call on my IRL model, though someone beat you to the cookie.

What? No cookie? Aaaaawwww.... *pouts*

I have my own that I made anyway. *munch*

I could give you my taco to nibble on, or Skrap's eggroll if you want some of that. ^_^ *snicker* I'm so ebil.

Your a blonde?

You must've missed that when I posted that information on my front page. ^ ^; Yeah, I'mma blond, big whoop, wanna fight about it? (Cookie to who can guess that reference.)

Family Guy. The owner of the golf course ^_^

Bingo! ^ ^ Shame he died in that Wal-Mart/Tank ep.

I still get the cookie though, right?

Oh yeah, *gives cookie*

WOOHOO!

DAMMIT I could of had a cookie.

Ah... The MS-06J Zaku II Ground Type. With a commander's antenna, too =3

Not a J type, a S type. J types were ground but only specialized for grounds. F types were space specialized ones. S types, to my knowledge were all purpose ones reserved for aces and created with boosted performances. Though they didn't do much against a Gundam.

An S type? I guess I kind of went for the J based on the lack of a knuckle guard on the left arm. That and I often go for the more complicated answers XD
True that the J-types were no match for Feddie mobile weapons on the level of the RX-78-2, but they were on pretty equal footing with the mass produced Gundam Ground Types. Then again the RX-79[G]s were pretty much RX-79 GMs with improved reactors and Gundam-type heads as a form of psychological warfare. They were fielded on Earth while Amuro and his RX-78-2 were wreaking havoc in space, so anything resembling the Gundam inspired fear in regular Zeon soldiers... And you know all that stuff already, don't you?

Yep. ^ ^ Which is partly why it was kinda ironic for a Gundam to be hijacked by Zeon during the Stardust Operation in 0083.

To be saved by a symbolic representation of the Federation made doubly galling by its use of a nuclear weapon? Very ironic I think

The Delaz fleet wasn't saved, it was literally decimated not only by the back stabbing Cima, but by the remainder of the Feddy fleet. Though, Gato did take out many ships with that one Gundam. Even more with the mobile armor, which I can't even bother trying to spell.

I meant to put "saved" in quotations ^_^; But you are absolutely right. Ultimately the entire Operation was a massive failure leading to the loss of the Delaz and Cima Fleets along with several useful prototype weapons (poor Gerbera Tetra... Still, its spiritual successor, the MS-18E... no that got blown up, too. )
Ah, yes, the Neue Ziel. A real pain in the ass in ACE 2 even with the Dendrobium Orchis. Beating him with God Gundam was a lot of fun, but beating anyone with a Sekiha Tenkyoken tends to be.

I thought the operation was a success. They dropped the colony on Earth, showing the Feds that they're still vulnerable. Personally, I thought it was entirely a scheme from the Fed higher ups to enforce their power. My point to this theory was the hiring of Cima and because of the Zeon attack, gave them a 'good' reason to make the Titans, which were basically ruling until the end of Zeta.

But that's just my opinion. And yeah, Neue Ziel is a bastard in any game you play against it. SG Gundam, ACE, SRW. Gato is a cheap bastard.

Stardust did show the Feds that they could still be attacked, but I don't think their method of retaliation was something the Zeon remnants had been expecting, so from that point I believe the operation was a failure. Not because they couldn't perform a colony drop, but because they ended up hurting themselves more than their enemies in the long run.
Your theory definitely has merit. In the end the Feds benefited greatly from the increased tensions and the Titans were able to rise to power. Not only the Feds, but the major arms companies were all commissioned to design newer models, a definite boon. Anaheim was able to play both sides of the field again, so they were pleased with the outcome. In the end the war was dragged out with the two sides at a stalemate. Not what Gato had in mind.

It was a real nasty piece of work, that mobile armor.

I'm so glad there is another fan I can debate with. ^ ^

I enjoy it a great deal ^_^ and I pride myself on being a Mecha-Maniac, so if you ever want to chat lemme know!

Seig Zeon! Your word is law, my lady.
