Here's one I did a week ago while anticipating the Highlander's release.




Unit is the Aces Wild. I kept the B1 since I'm part of the 1st Battlion myself.

It looks good. Altough you could have tried a bit more greyish black not to cover lines and shadows in the original picture.

Thanks for the critique. I was thinking of going back at some point and trying a darker black for the shading (along with a couple of other touch ups), but I didn't want a lighter black, even though some detail might have been covered up in the process.

My take on Phorashi's Dragon-5N. I thought about putting some insignia and such like on it, but decided not to since it seemed inappropriate for a trial 'Mech.

Been awhile. Working like crazy. Was wondering if I'd do it or not... Alex, I apologize in advance for this:

Love it! Looks a lot like a MK II, however. Not that that is a bad thing. If only it was in Nova Cat Alpha Galaxy colors.... *whistles innocently

That is actually Mad Cat MK4, a Dark Age mech.

That explains the undersized missile pods.

You got the Savage Wolf looking great, I may have to change my BT avatar.

Hello, I have made several repaints of Wolf's Dragoons, specifically Alpha Regiment with rust and black as colors. I also made a more standard black and red. As you will see, some turned out better then others. I have sort of been hoarding them for a while now. Thank you very much for the templates, they made the whole job considerably easier.

[Adridos]

Looks pretty good.

Only criticism would be the decals on Cicadas' shields which should've been rotated a bit more.

[Jack Gallows]

So, Ironhawk...any chance at a template for your custom Timber Wolf? <.<

It's not his own Timber Wolf. It's Alex's Savage Wolf from the Era Report: 3145 cover. Altough he's made a few changes.

Just pointing it out to make sure you know. Feel free to ignore this post if you do.

That is correct. When you look at the original picture, you'll see that I have put a lot of effort in a restoration process rather than an actual mod process, except maybe for the size of the PPC nozzle, which I wanted closer to the game feel. Otherwize, I didn't want to make heavy mods to Alex's art with my own; I have way to much respect for his art for that. (That is why I apologized in advance in hopes I didn't offend him.)

Thanks. Alex Iglesias's art as the design base as explained above. I have only created the repaint job.

[Deadborder]

It's fantastic work, and I'm gonna second the request for a Template version! I've been trying to do a recolour version of that art ofr ages but my own skills are sucktacular
