The IS mechs have always their charm!

[Nik Van Rhijn]

It was the favourite on several of the polls/threads about Mech 12. FD's done an excellent job once again.

I actually like FDs line art better than the finished product (less beefy) but +20 for the "Grim Determination" logo

[CrescentHawk]

Finally an impressive looking stalker.

[NinjaCool]

Looks like my previous guess was right
Nice mech!

FD is the ultimate bro-tier artist.

I love the torso portion, as well as the upper legs, but the feet look weird. They look.. reversed? As if the heels and toes are reversed. I think the forward part of the feet should have been extended a bit more, to give it a better sense of stability and direction.

Still, the cockpit and those side-mounted missile/laser weapons pods are truly drool-worthy.

I have to say this ..... BEAUTYFULL ..... that has to be the best looking Stalker ever!

[Silverfang22]

Is it just me, or does it look like his legs are on backwards? (look at the feet!)

Not quite as hardcore as the Citytech Stalker drawing Jim Holloway did back in the 80's, but if you see this thing when you turn the corner, you'll definitely remember (AND it'll likely be the LAST thing you see).

I like how they redesined it compared to the orginal stalker and kept some of the classic look

[ethnic minority]

I don't think I'll ever get to pilot the stalker, but this is the best news ever. Love the references too.

As for the reverse jointed legs, I don't think the original btech art ever made it clear which way the legs bent, but the chicken legs make more sense than having a top heavy machine with traditional legs.

Sweet!

No really, this one's really sweet!

[SquareSphere]

Hmm assault class missile thrower, it's not Zeus but i suppose it'll do.

Still nice work on the former wonky legs.

[SilentWolff]

PGI must have a thing for obscure old school mechs. Never been a fan of the Stalker and I'm still hoping for a Banshee-S, but in typical fashion FD has made this ugly mech actually look good.

[Steel Prophet]

My Mech.... until we get the Archer

[Atlas3060]

Okay this isn't a Victor but damn it was my second choice.
Never in my life have I wanted a beta key for something so badly, but now as I see this beautiful monster I'm practically drooling and screaming in excitement.
