Kobayashi Makoto is an illustrator, mechanical designer, manga artist, modeler, and anime director best known for his work on Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam and Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ. He's responsible for some iconic mecha designs from those series—the RMS-108 Marasai being among his most recognizable creations.
Worth noting: there's another Kobayashi Makoto (まこと 小林) who works as a manga artist, so don't mix them up.
