Y'know if you model a small boulder or something underneath the foot you could easily print and display the model in that pose. Might be a bit more interesting to field in a Battletech game than the static pose.

Quickie before bed.

I quickly rigged up the model and made a little tribute to the source art:

Enjoy

The only thing I'd add is that the convexity/concavity of the hull plates appears reversed in your model to the original art..not that it's a bad thing..

Simply amazing, i wish the people that own all the licensing would recognize the money making potential for these and sell them in both classic and N-scale. I would spend more money on these than the online game.

Like so many others on this thread, Sentinel, I just wanted to say - your work is AMAZING.

MWO recently got me thinking about TT Battleltech and how 3D printing changes the hobby. You're a testament to that. Keep it up! :)

If you're printing in clear I would have been tempted to tape off the canopy. Still an awesome model. I would pay many human souls for one in a slightly larger scale ;)

That would be awesome, I was just thinking on a scale I like to paint.
