Well, i decided to take a shot at making animated pixel 'mechs, somewhat akin to the glorious pixel 'mechs Alistair had made.
Of course, i decided to make the Scorpion, because, if not me, who else will give it attention?
Scorpion

Update: Decided to find time and make another one, a Locust this time.
Locust

Update: Decided to re-do a bit of the Locust, change the color scheme to match the Scorpion (all the upcoming mechs will be this olive colour too, just to keep it consistent).
Goliath

Update: Changed the Goliath around a bit: the cockpit to be more visible and the LRMs to be fired the way they should be fired.
Catapult


I will be attempting to keep these little 'mechs in scale with one-another. We'll see how well it goes.

Wow, that was a really good job! Since you like quads, can you do the Goliath next?

I was actually thinking about doing the Goliath next.
However, this animation thing really takes up much more time than you'd think (since you have to make every single frame manually and all of those frames need to at least somewhat match up to whatever was before them and it's pretty bloody hard.)

I'll probably will have time next Saturday. Maybe.

Lil' bit of an update. Made a Locust, though i went for a closer design to its original TRO look (because i feel the MW:O design is a bit too complicated for such a small image)

The moment I saw your name, I knew it would be quads.

Good job.

The "arch" of the LRMs is vey much canon i'm afraid

Fine, then imagine it's a Custom Goliath with SRMs instead of LRMs

[Hitman85]

Please make Cougar next. It is so cool mech, will look great

[Juodas Varnas]

Update!
Did the Catapult. It might be the longest and most complicated one yet. (Missiles are hard)
Also, updated the Goliath a bit.

I wasn't trying to be mean, but cool idea

Well, it still was a good point, so i've made the Goliath fire the LRMs properly (along with the Catapult, took me a while to realize how to make them look decent that way. It was harder than it looks, damn it!)

[Hitman85]

Catapult looks great

[Clideb50]

When you get some spare time, could you do a Vulture (Mad Dog) firing LRMs please?

[Juodas Varnas]

Not really animated, but i wanted to try something new, so it's something, i guess.

Uhh... More animated mechs coming up.
Some day.
When i'm not lazy.
