A bit more backstory on the Einbrecher from a design perspective.

I wanted to create giant robot that while draws its roots from gundam is clearly an idea on its own. what better inspirational resource than the very war the original Gundam was based on, WW2.

Now, the German Wehrmacht at the time came up with some very clever technology. Their uniforms were also some of the spiffiest. The head of the Einbrecher is created based on the Stahlhelm and after several head iterations, i found the right one. the command spike is an obvious reference to Gundam but its a unique concept in its own right, what a nice way to identify your lead unit.

all the weapons the Einbrecher uses are to a degree inspired by the weapons the Wehrmacht used, except the rocket launcher and the undesigned Multi-Ordnance Sequenced Shotgun.

a very fun personal project all in all.
