The EMS-07 Elevado

Fueled by a burning hatred for the Earth Federation, Crux Dogatie of Jupiter-sphere began secretly reforming the colonies into the Jupiter Empire, declaring himself Supreme Leader.

To aid the goal of exacting revenge for the Federation's abandonment, and their callous offering of political marriage to gain influence in the region, the Jupiter Empire developed their own mobile suits, far removed from the conventions of MS design in Earth-sphere.

Among the most striking of these was the EMS-07 Elevado.

With the mainstay mobile suit of the Jupiter Empire - the EMS-06 Batalla - serving as a base, the Elevado was developed as a high-performance alternative for use by ace pilots. It also saw extensive use by the personal guard of Supreme Leader Crux Dogatie.

The Elevado featured a number of differences from its predecessor, intended to fit its high-performance role. Namely, the addition of more thrusters on the back, affording pilots finer control and the ability to pull off more complex maneuvers.

The most eye-catching feature of the Elevado however, was undeniably its head. The long, sleek design conjures images of Aliens from the ancient films of Earth's middle-historical period. While definitely an intimidating look, the elongated head did serve a practical design purpose. The Elevado featured an extensive sensor suite, allowing pilots to gather higher quantities of more reliable data at longer ranges.

The machine also featured a beam machine gun built-in to its claw arm, which itself was powerful enough to pierce the armor of some mobile suits. It was also capable of using standard MS armaments deployed by the Jupiter Empire.

The Elevado's name can also be transliterated as Erebado. Some translated sources use that transliteration. I elected to use Elevado since it fits nicely with the Spanish theme set by the Batalla.

The EMS-07 Elevado was originally designed by Yuuichi Hasegawa for the 1994 manga Mobile Suit Crossbone Gundam.

Finally getting around to posting these!

Finished work on my Crossbone Gundam ver. ka, by far one of my most enjoyable builds to date. Had a lot of fun weathering this and coming up with a small narrative for the scene. I’ll try and go into detail of the weathering sometime here or you can probably piece it all together on my IG @ rokkupla

Bandai MG 1/100 XM-X1 Crossbone Gundam X-1 Full Cloth. Sadly, can't recommend the kit. Can't hold the big gun at all. Way to fiddly to not really work on an Action Base

The real reason Crossbone has never been animated is because they (rightfully) fear that animating a single one of Tobia’s fights would make every Gundam pilot in the Universal Century bar Amuro himself look like a chump.

Gundam Crossbones is objectively one of the best Gundam series ever, because they gave Haro a space suit.

And he knows who you are, *Quattro*.

RGM-89 Jegan

State-of-the-art during its first rollout in U.C. 0089 , the RGM-89A Jegan saw the Federation break from tradition. Instead of being an in-house development like previous Federation mass-production units, the Jegan was both designed and supplied by Anaheim Electronics.

Mainly intended to serve as a replacement for the rapidly aging RGM-86R GM III, the Jegan incorporated and improved upon many developments introduced with the RGM-88X Jeddah.

One of the most notable features of the Jegan is its head-mounted Vulcan pod. While previous mobile suits did have head-mounted Vulcan cannons, the RX-178 Gundam Mk-II popularized making these gunpods modular, rather than built in directly as they had been previously.

The standard Jegan A-type would see many refits over its lifespan. Eventually, the A-type was replaced by the RGM-89D, which became the new standard pattern. The vast majority of the D-type's changes were internal and software based, in order to keep the Jegan relevant as mobile suit development advanced.

While the A and D types were by far the most common, the Jegan saw over a dozen variants developed for different purposes, mission profiles, or to serve as testbeds for new technologies.

The Jegan became so ubiquitous during its service history that they could still be seen in service as long as 31 years after their deployment. When the Crossbone Vanguard attacked Frontier IV in U.C. 123, Jegan J-types were seen engaging the Vanguard's cutting-edge mobile suits.

The Jegan was originally designed by artist Yutaka Izubuchi for the 1988 film Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack.

This one was a request from a friend! Anyone and everyone may submit requests!
