The Generic Frame

The Generic Frame, on Flickr.

I think there's a part of every builder that wants to create a generic frame that acts as a foundation for building interesting things. I've been trying for a while and I think I finally accomplished it. I've internalized a lot of techniques from different builders with this design. Vitor Faria, and Phayze81 are just two of them.

Generic Soldier, on Flickr.

My Generic frame design kitted out with the Soldier loadout. Accent colors are hues of Blue and Attachments are in Medium Azure and Black in a nod to the underwater frame meme that went around on the Mobile Frame Hangar forums.

Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack Stats: 2Rd (gun) 1B (shield) 1G (booster) 1Y (antenna) 2W.

Generic Harrier, on Flickr.

My Generic frame design kitted out with the Fast Assault (AKA: Harrier) loadout. Accent colors are Purple and Yellow. Attachments are in Purple, Yellow, and Black to make it look like some sort of alt-color Gundam.

Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack Stats: 2Rd (gun) 1B (shield) 2G (booster) 2W.

Another version of my Generic design. This one uses techniques and ideas copied from Mark Sakura and Jay Biquadrate.

More of my Generic frames, these were built specifically to invoke that "Gundam" feel.

Support Soldier:
2Rd (gun) 1G (booster) 2Y (targeters) 2W + SSR.
Brawler: 2Rh+d8 (blades) 2B (shields) 1Gd8 (no ranged weapons) 2W + SSR.

Messing around again with my Generic frame, this time I'm adding some Tenkai Knights parts into the mix. The head is a little big and I should find a better one.

Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Attack Stats: 2Rh+d8 (claws) 2B (leg armor) 1Gd8 (no ranged weapons) 2W.

Another Generic frame variant, this one is built using inverted techniques.

Trans Generic, on Flickr.

The other day was the International Transgender Day of Visibility. Several people on the MFZ Facebook page posted Frame designs with color schemes matching the Transgender flag. As usual I'm a day late and a dollar short. This is for my friends.
