Hey Guys! It's been while since I posted any repaints, but I had a few free minutes to do a quick one.

This is a Centurion done in the color scheme I used for my Hunchback Desktop.

Very nice work to the both of you. Seeing that Cat is reverse engineering those IH fx hehe... Cat, you're becoming the fx master now... Harts, missed ya, buddy!

Alright... Are you feeling the blues? Then here's some:

Blue Starr Irregulars, that I had sitting there as a WIP, were an inspiration for this latest repaint work for the Relic Legionnaires:


Relic Legionnaires's new theme. Based upon request (and great insignia work) from Vosgedzam. Navy blue with sea grey trims were the theme colors. Added a just a touch of yellow highlights to better integrate the insignia with the theme. Also took the liberty of adding a special diagonal banner area for company designation.


Relic Legionnaires' Trebuchet for the same company.


Hope Vos, and you, Awesome Community, enjoy...

Oooooooh shiiiiiny...

You have my thanks for the awesome works you've done on these wonderful mechs!

[Ironhawk]

Thanks. Only odd thing though, especially with the blue color, there is a real difference between the laptop LCD screen I used for these repaints versus my iMac and my iPad screens. What was a navy blue on the fringe of indigo on the PC now appears blue with a tint of teal-ish in it on the other screens. Same for you? If so, I need to adjust the gamma of my PC... And will edit the pics.

[Vosgedzam]

Frankly, I think I like the current blue color right now. I'd leave it be.

I'm a Houston Texans fan myself, but that has a distinctly Dallas Cowboys look to it. I could see sports teams paint jobs being big if that were ever to become an ingame option.

Yep, Hartsblade, back in the day

Okay I love the new Centurion, but there are a few folks having trouble re-invisioning FD's as replacement. So to maybe help more people see the "Centurion" in our new Centurion...



Okay, the next re-paint will be a more "serious" one

edit: If you're curious. this is the symbol on the shield. A nod to the Legio IX Hispana

Anybody managed to put all concept art on one page scaled to size. Would be cool to see how they all stand against the Atlas or the Jenner. Maybe even a lineup of the mechs like they did in the manual for the original MechCommander.

Indeed. Same thing I thought the day you posted them. Man, I love this thread.

[Ironhawk]

Veterans can be eccentric sometimes. What can you do?

[Col Nighthawk]

Ok, I'm sold, you going to open up a paint shop once the game goes live?

[Adridos]

Really nice Stalker Ironhawk, but why "Mew, mew" and not "Moo"?

You made it in a cow theme after all.

I did a quick moch up back in March here: Estimate of 'mech scales

Hartsblade, on 28 March 2012 - 12:20 PM, said:

Based on Bryan's commenst that the Atlas is 18 m tall, and the Commando is a shrimp. I studied the in game footage and came up with this "best guess" for relative 'mech sizes based on the Concept Art.
**special thanks to OhGilPin for the 'mechs sans backgrounds.

But as you can see it was done before we saw any real ingame footage, I'd say most are close except the lights are too tall.

I would say this is a little closer, but not perfect...
