Designers of the gundam world.


People that helped to increase the World of gundam.


Max Watanabe
Hobby Japan Magazine's resident master modeler. Considered by most as one of the best modelers working with anime subjects, Max Watanabe has long been the example to look up to for many anime modelers.

Hajime Katoki
One of the most popular modern mechanical designers working on gundam designs, Hajime Katoki got his start with a series of designs that ran in Model Graphix magazine, under the name gundam Sentinel. He now works for Bandai, as their main designer for most of their gundam models. His illustrations are also often the inspiration for garage kits, which are usually then designated "ver. Ka" meaning Katoki's version.

Mamoru Nagano
Considered by some to be the best mechanical designer ever, Nagano's distinctive work on Z gundam, L-Gaim, and the manga series of his own creation named Five Star Stories, has won him a following of extremely devoted fans who hold his designs above most others. Nagano's work is usually characterized by a heavier bent towards fantasy inspired styling, than most other designers.

Kunio Ookawara
The man responsible for the gundam, Ookawara has had some level of involvement with every gundam show ever made. His work on such pivotal shows as gundam, Dougram, VOTOMS, and others, helped introduce the modern idea of the "mech" as a machine of war, as opposed to the older idea of the "hero robot."

Yutaka Izubuchi
A very influential mechanical designer, with a large fan following, Izubuchi has brought his clean, modern stylings to many shows including gundam 0080, Char's Counterattack, Patlabor, and Gasaraki.
