MS-06G Zaku II
Illustration by Mark Simmons
As development of the MS-07 Gouf progressed, the development team added supplemental thruster engines to its legs, enabling the new mobile suit to perform jet-assisted jumps. While they awaited the completion of the Gouf, Zeon's Earth-based engineers borrowed this feature for land combat variants of the Zaku II. One such was the G type Zaku, a modified J type equipped with extra armor, as well as leg thrusters to increase its mobility.
Though text descriptions of the G type Zaku exist, the only visual depiction of it is a little rubber "Super Deformed" version. Inspired by a scaled-up illustration on Japanese fan Walfisch's Zaku Page, here's my own full-size rendition.
