Eh 3D was nice for Front Mission, but mostly what made it better were better mechanics and oddly 3 wasn't as popular in Japan from my understanding (but I loved it so there you have it). Well that and the tactical Wanzer sprites in the original weren't terribly detailed due to system limitations, but that's a non-existent issue now.

Hehe! I never played Front Mission, unfortunately. It looks pretty cool. From screenshots, it looks reminiscent of turn based strategy games like the X-com games.


I would say it's worth it if you can find a copy of the first one online somewhere, 3 for PSX was pretty good too. I suppose it's similar to X-Com but the game is more focused on story and the missions themselves. You didn't really manage anything outside of the missions beyond outfitting the Wanzers. Gameplay-wise though you had Action points to move, shoot, punch and counter/defend.

Course then you also had Gunhazard which had nothing to do with any of that...fun game though.

This is really awesome and all.... but how did you put the "Santatlas is watching you" picture under your name, I wanna do that too but with the pictures you provided. I'm very ignorant when it comes to forums ;)

Unfortunately, the Catapult is the most poorly pixelled mech in the bunch. It's just so hard to make it read well at this size, without doing the traditional zeppelin-shaped head from earlier MW games. :ph34r:

Only just discovered these, awesome work. I'm always impressed how people are able to create such depth with simple pixel art.

I think it turned out great. If it makes you feel any better the mechs in the first FM were drawn in 3 different scales and the battlemap versions at times only vaguely resembled the hangar versions that had all the details.

I love these! Inspired me to make a sig just so I had an excuse to paint a few of them. Looking forward to the remaining ones!

Huh. For once you did something nice for the community. (note: AFAIK ^_^ )

Kudos. You're now a little less annoying. (jk ^_^ )

+1 pixelated mech to you. :D

To be fair, I also handed out medals a while back. I thought that was pretty nice. So it's 2 nice things in a little over a year. Maybe in 6 months, I'll do something nice again. :D

Untill then... you're all a bunch of ******* *****. And your mothers are grossly overweight.

There is! I will edit this post shortly, since I already drew the K2-arms a while back. I won't be doing variants for all these mechs, of course. But the K2 is basically a completely different mech, in my eyes. B)


Sorry to be okkuu, but I was wondering about the K2 myself. I would like to update my sig image with one in it. I love your art!
