Edit: People have accused me of being in cahoots with mouse manufacturers. As a demonstration that any agonising pain I may have caused your mouse wheel is unintentional, I've hidden all images after the first behind spoilers to make the scroll easier.

Very nice! You using the Freestyle brush tool in Blender, or is this a feature in a real modeling tool like 3D Max?

I'm using your importer to load a mech into Blender, then exporting it to fbx and loading into 3DS Max for cleanup. After that, it's getting rendered in 4 views by the Quicksilver renderer with the "Acrylic" effect for nice sharp edges, albeit in black. The renders are then passed to Photoshop, inverted to that the lines are white, curve adjusted so that most of it is black, then set to screen blending over a blue background so that only the white shows up. That's then passed over to Illustrator for the lines and text before final compositing in Photoshop.

I doubt it. I'd really like to, but to get the result above just requires doing a series of relatively simple steps. Since none of the MWO models naturally have internals, I'd need to model them myself, which would significantly add to the time.

And the Catapult's up!

Next on my list are the Kit Fox, Nova, Summoner and Dire Wolf. While I work on those, if anyone's got any particular requests on what they'd like to see next, lemme hear it and I'll look into it. :D

Kit Fox and Nova posted in the OP. I've only made widescreen versions this time, as the quality was dropping when I rescaled for the 1280 x 1024 versions and the extra time required was making me doubt if it was worth it. If anyone is particularly attached to a 1280 x 1024 desktop, let me know.
