HAha perfect! You should try tweeting it to the devs, see what they think.

Very nice.

Laser barrels should be a little longer. It also could be as tall and wide as the atlas. It was a rather large mech.

I really like what you're doing haruko. So, what do you think of this?:

Haruko's Mauler as Concept art:




Haruko's Mauler in Mechbay:

if only only kit-bashing was as easy as 3d models for printing. So much more instant gratification.

Excellent work OP. maybe we will see a mauler after cw.

[RapierE01]

very cool. I would buy this mech

[MustrumRidcully]

If am allowed to nitpick someone else's awesome work that I couldn't do - one thing that bothers me about these kitbashes are the colors- they appear too dark. The standard green mechs are sold in might seem ugly, but I'd say they would help to add some "authenticity".

On the other hand, if they look to authentic, people might buy MC believing the mech is coming. We don't want to do PGI's marketing job, do we?

I made a Mauler at the request of my corp mates yesterday, it was a quick job so I didn't give it unique legs so sorry about that, but I'm sharing it anyway! Gonna keep it brief though since I have to run off somewhere:

They're black because that;s how they are by default, the green is an applied color (as you can see in-game, it's "default green"). I have no idea how to apply camo to the models outside of the game, so as a result, they're all default black.

BTW, could you make mech screens like this for the DCMS-MX90-D (Daboku) and the Mauler MAL-1PT5/Linesman???
3 "variants"!

See, PGI, with a little creativity, you could add this beast to the game. Simply the most gorgeous IS mech in the timeline. (and this rendition is particularly fantastic)

The Dabouku was early Mauler version with downgraded LRMs and MLAS version right?
The problem is the Daboku doesn't feel right without its flawed CASE pannels.



Reminds me that the Mauler next to the Hatamoto Chi were my rides in MW2 Mercs....

Don't worry about the Daboku's faulted eject system: we MWO pilots don't eject, anyway (or the Spider pilots would be pretty screwed).

[TheGreatNoNo]

Man. Now I REALLY want PGI to make a Mauler. Sweet work there!

[Odanan]

3 "variants" for the Mauler, with suggested hardpoints:

MAL-1R
XL Engine, Ferro Fibrous

RA 1x ER Large Laser (2x Energy Hardpoints)
RT 2x AC/2, 1x LRM15 (2x Ballistic Hardpoints, 1x Missile Hardpoint)
CT -
H -
LT 2x AC/2, 1x LRM15 (2x Ballistic Hardpoints, 1x Missile Hardpoint)
LA 1x ER Large Laser (2x Energy Hardpoints)

---------------------------
DCMS-MX90-D (Daboku - "early Mauler" relatively common until the MAL-1R is introduced)

RA 1x Large Laser (1x Energy Hardpoint)
RT 2x AC/2, 1x LRM10 (3x Ballistic Hardpoints, 1x Missile Hardpoint)
CT -
H -
LT 2x AC/2, 1x LRM10 (3x Ballistic Hardpoints, 1x Missile Hardpoint)
LA 1x Large Laser (1x Energy Hardpoint)

---------------------------
MAL-1PT5 (apocryphal low tech Mauler, same as the semi-canonical Linesman)

RA 1x Medium Laser (1x Energy Hardpoint)
RT 2x AC/2, 1x LRM15 (2x Ballistic Hardpoints, 2x Missile Hardpoints)
CT -
H -
LT 2x AC/2, 1x LRM15 (2x Ballistic Hardpoints, 2x Missile Hardpoints)

Why not. PGI resues parts , though not entire sections.

[Odanan]

Reworked version of the MWO:M cover.

[Iqfish]

Odanan, are you german? Because that site you linked is entirely in german.

[Frozen Spirit Jac]

O.o OMG wow.
Had to stop and think looking at the first page and hang on that looks like yep Merc2. Seriously, seeing some these new designs, makes me feel shameful I have finished with my mech... well 10/10 good job.

No, I'm Brazilian.
Aber ich sprech eine bisschen deutsch.

I posted a link in German because there is virtually no other sources for the Linesman.
