Couldn't decide whether I preferred the Lupus or Lupus Rex and was also curious to see what the exact differences were between OG Barbatos and the Lupus variants so I put them all next to each other
I have a really hard time picking between Lupus and Lupus Rex but as of me right now writing this my heart goes to the Lupus Rex (this was not true 8 minutes ago)
Also, since I had all PNGs opened from the wiki, I put every Barbatos form next to each other for your viewing and perusing convenience
(open it in browser they're not small Tumblr's just struggling to contain 9 mechs in a post)

An interesting thought I had a few days ago when thinking about Gundam Frame development;
We know that Gundam frames and Mobile Armours share a lot in common from a design perspective, since parts from a mobile armour can be integrated into Mobile suits, so could the apparent increase in complexity as the Gundam Frames continue on be the result of captured materials being integrated into the Gundam Frames?
Murmur was the original catalyst for this line of thinking, since it uses tech that we’ve seen previously on Mobile Armours such as Hashmal, but it’s most evident with Barbatos;
It’s able to integrate the tech with very little difficulty, and Alaya-Vijinana bridges the gap between pilot and machine, so it doesn’t have to match absolutely. So why couldn’t other technology be the result of recovered Mobile armour materials?
It could also lead to a greater refinement of the Alaya-Vijinana system, since we see Units like the Murmur or Marchosias having more inhuman designs, when compared to the relative simplicity of Barbatos and Gamigin, the earlier-numbered units.
The only “fancy” weapon system that appears to exist basically from the start (barring the Alaya-Vijinana system itself) is the Rare Metal weaponry, with Bael, Haagenti and now Zepar all having access to weapons made from Rare Metal (though it’s possible there were multiple Gundam Frame “foundries”, each of which had different technological specialties).
This post was inspired by this piece of Fanart, depicting a sort of Gundam-ified Hashmal;

Barbatos Lupus
I like to make ‘album’ covers for my playlists. My Orchestral playlist has a whole bunch of Gundam soundtracks, so I made a little cover of my favorite one, ASW-G-08 Barbatos Lupus
