Evangelion Unit 00/0000

The Evangelion Unit 00/0000 was the first successful prototype for the Evangelion series. The series had been plagued with problems, and this Eva was no exception. There are two versions of this Eva, yellow and Blue or 00/0000. The Yellow version was the original version of the Eva, and lacked the shoulder blades of its companions. It was piloted by Rei II. It was damaged in the attack by Ramiel, the fifth Angel. After that battle it was repaired and upgraded somewhat to make it a suitable combat model. It became the Blue Eva and proved itself to be a very powerful counterpart to Eva-01 and Eva-02. The Blue Eva never went berzerk, although the Yellow did during an activation test. It nearly destroyed the testing facility and almost killed Rei. Luckily, the injection tube was very well designed and very sturdy, otherwise Rei would almost certainly have been killed.

I modelled the Evas because I wanted a complete Evangelion collection. Like the Eva-01, this model has undergone several changes since the original model was made. I've changed its legs, arms, body and head. It is almost completely new and like the Eva-01 the only remnant of its original modelling is the shoulder blades and the back. Eva-00 Yellow was harder to model than Blue, because of the chest. It was more difficult because the chest was far more round than on the other Eva's. Getting the chest just right was difficult, but I think I got it. The head was the easiest out of all of the models, because it has no mouth and it is more blocky than the others. But it evened out with the other models.
