Scheme Inspiration
This Jenner is painted for a non-canon unit within the Draconis Combine. All ‘Mechs of the Shinigami Brigade display the Draconis Combine dragon on the left side of their ‘Mech. Prominently displayed elsewhere on a background of bone white are the Kanji characters “Shinigami,” loosely translated as Gods of Death. Their ‘Mech number is displayed on the right side in Kanji. Some MechWarriors further decorate their ‘Mech with traditional Japanese water color art, or with dragon scales on some panels of their armor.
