Hey Guys!! I would just ask that we all remember that harmony gold has a stick up its arse about some of the older mech designs. Having said that, I believe that this warrior has gotten past any design restrictions harmony might have with the MWO guys using mechs like the Archer or Maruder etc. I bet he can even change the warhammer enough that will allow this new venue to utilize all previously argued about designs.

Heres to hoping. :D

I tip my neuro helmet to you sir, EXCELLENT work!!

Your artwork is fantastic! You capture an actual essence I have never been able to replicate. The only thing I do not really care for is some of the pencil-thin legs on some of those. If you have the time for requests, I would love to see your view of a few Clan 'Mechs, in particular a Timber Wolf, and if you want to take a shot at it maybe a Dire Wolf and Warhawk.

Edit: And I agree with others before me that a Warhammer would be fantastic ;)

Good work...really like you "normal" caliber ACs...they are not so incredible over sized as in most official artworks

I have always thought this. I feel like the whole "as big as possible" trend in bore sizes is too anime in style, and honestly looks goofy. Plus if you think about it, how would a (TRO drawing) Centurion move ammunition from the right torso, through the shoulder and down the length of the arm to the massive cannon on the right arm, considering the bore size is larger than the thickness of the arm and shoulder joint?!? Bigger, is not always better.

normal oversized battletech AC work like muskets.. the pilot uses his full modeled arm and place the shell :D
when they have no arms and the ammunition is in the leg - barghest...the ammunition is normal pistol ammunition and a single shot = of 1.000.000 shots of 9mm bullets

Wow these are great. I think design-wise you are right up there with FD, these could easily fit in MWO.
My personal favorites:
Jaggermech (which I always hated before now)
Vindicator

FD has his own take on it from an older picture and, well, it looks more like a Vindicator than this one. :unsure:

A Raven that looks like a Raven. The Cappies are divided on their other medium, I see, but even they must admit...YOUR Raven is superior.

All kneel before the Raven. Rudy, you still amaze!

On second thought: would you mind if I attempted to build a wood/steel model of this one?

Hey! Don't knock highschool doodles! I quite like my doodles actually, and I'll keep making them with pride thank you ;D
I've tried my hand at several of the unseen designs, though they aren't anywhere near the style of the OP lol I love to share my art with the MWO community, so check em out if so inclined; http://dannyp96.deviantart.com/
Also, amazing work OP keep it up!!

I really like your Marauder it makes much more sense than the original art, first time I saw the original I was like its defiantly packing a gauss on it's head, ready to line up some damage... then have a look at it's statistics and you come to find it's actually an AC5. With this artwork you can see that the barrel helps convey the calibre size.

I really like the revision of the 3025 TRO that you've done so far. Only one thing; where is the Big Bad Egg? Seriously please show us your take on a stalker. Every Stalker visual I've ever seen is junk and that assault masterpiece doesn't deserve it's shoddy representation.

Really nice work. I especially liked the Vulcan.

One comment regarding the Marauder (the 'Mech itself, in all its incarnations): I think whenever the gun-arms are canted down it always seems to give the design a more sedate, less threatening aura; like it is posing rather than getting ready to attack. Just something I have noticed over the years with the art and miniatures. (This also applies to many other avian designs with gun-arms, as well.)

Anyway, once again, really nice work.
