Cataphract in green, black and gold or any specifics? Can't do phraken though -- it didn't look quite good enough for me to throw money at it just yet (I set a bunch aside for future hero sales), though I've got a lot of paints.

Lordred has videos. But he records are a normal 1080 resolution for them. His channel is here. Occasionally you can also see him in my vids typically rocking Feldgrau, Black and Turmeric.



Any particular mechs? If not then that's gonna wind up on a Steiner Scout Lance.

Kk thanks for the update and the info on the channel I will check it out .

Thanks for that Odanan, been curious about that.

Paint concepts thus far...

Liao Cataphracts.

Atlas. Dirtied. Mountain Line.


Cleaned.


PCGamer.


Woodland.


Fractal.


Default.


Default after some rearranging.


Highlander. Default.


Highlander, Fractal.


Highlander, digital.


Highlander. Tiger stripe.

Victor. Dazzle.

Some shots were already taken with the Liao colors but frequent drops on Frozen City with the FC texture glitch impeded progress.

Looks good. Where did yo get the special skins though (like PC Gamer)?

PC Gamer Magazine, came from an October issue 2012. The rest are bought.

Lordred did ask for some requests but I'm not sure if that meant we can drop with him and Kon to have our mechs photo'd.

That's how some of those mentioned in the past got their mechs up. Drop with us any time.

Eastern Standard Time here. Lordred usually starts between 8 PM to 12 AM depending on how good or bad MWO is being to us. Sometimes he stops playing earlier than that.

I has a request.

White as a primary and blue as a secondary personally looks awesome to me. It's like the Steiner Royal Guard in MechCommander 2. I actually plan to buy those colors myself when I get the MC

Titanium White and Cobalt are the colors you're looking for. (I don't have Cobalt yet myself, will next time it's on sale).

The 5th RCT uses Blue, White and a third color for the unit, so depending on the mech we'll run them as colors 1, 2, and 3 to get the effect we want. It generally looks pretty sharp, but then again, I run on the lowest settings and really never get to see my mech

Edit: I see Kon got some for you. Why does your mech bay look so much better than mine? Mine looks like a big blurry mess. I also think he used a different Blue, but it looks nice.

"Very high" settings. Also restored the 60 FOV for it. I've got Hellblau, Cobalt reminded me too much of Basic Blue due to its dark nature and was too expensive, though I may get it in the future.

My FOV is normally 100. Making my mechlab look like this.

And my cockpit looks like this.

I like being able to see my mech's hands.

I'll try cranking up the settings for the menu. My PC should be able to handle that

Edit: Yup, HUGE difference in the lab. Sad that it does make a difference, since the menu runs just fine at those settings (I doubt the game would). Wish I'd known that durring the last Camo sale, as I decided against a few because I couldn't preview them very well (Wanted a camo to have 3 colors on my stalkers, ended up with Sherman).

Edited by Bront, 11 December 2013 - 02:33 PM.

[Koniving]

Every camo except Dazzle can use up to 3 colors. Sherman for example uses 2 colors for the pattern and a third for the star. Woodland on some mechs gets a non-optional fourth color (black) added in. Blackjacks are notorious for this but it looks really good, too. They are not alone, however.

What I really love is Buccaneer. On certain mechs with lots of uniquely shaped variants, it will say very different things depending on what variant you use.

Yup. Shame, I liked Dazzle.

Default Stalker doesn't really have a 3rd color either.

It's a highlight in a few small places. Very tiny. A decal decoration, and some minor lines. That's common among many actually.

Spoiler

Look for the color in the third box on each mech.

[Bront]

You can't make the Stalker's out on low res (and likely a few of the others, you can make out the Atlas)

Lastnights pickings were bad due to the return of Frozen City Texture bug edition.

One of my biggest pet peeves.

I confess I'd rather have the weapons not converge. o.o;
