[color=cyan][color=cyan]Hey everyone! I feel bad changing my 2A's paintscheme often. But I want more of you to get a chance to get your art skills, via Mech painting, shown. So I bought a Cicada 2A© (And yes, it felt very weird) that I want you guys to paint! You can use any Cicada model in your pictures, and I'll pick my top 3, and then have you guys vote on it.[/color]

So, same as previous.

I'm looking forward to seeing your work!

Cheers,
'TheGarth'

@Garth somewhere i remember someone (maybe Odanan?) made a repaint of the Cicada's concept art in your honor..

[Garth Erlam]

[color=cyan]I saw it, it was humbling. And man, Frost throwing down the gauntlet. That... that is going to be tough to beat.[/color]

Link for those of us who weren't around for the old contest? *newbie*

I'm a fan of colour co-ordination or simplicity... anyhow my Phract 3D is my Cheetah . So I give you the snowstorm, the SLDF Crusader and Raider, and the Unseen (for you never see them in the wild!).

[color=cyan]It's very easy, I can explain here: You paint a Cicada however you want, and post a picture here. If you can't post it, you can post the pattern and colours here, and someone (possibly me) will post a picture of it for you.

I pick the three I like most, and make a poll - YOU guys vote, and I use the one most voted on.[/color]

Garth I think you and I are on top of the list of "Cicada fanboyz" IH is making a very special repaint for Cicada, and I think you'll enjoy the hell outa it. Goes something like this: "NC's Nightmare Cicada" or you might want to call it "NCNC"
I am so ready to see his handy work on my idea.
Any who one out of many entries.

"The huntress's Lancer"

I can't remember what the last one was (the last winner), would you refresh my memory, please?

Another:

"Antares Scorpions Digital Strike"

Aw I was just thinkin' "you know what MWO needs.... more Garth, for sure". Good to see you around

Also, I've seen a Cicada painted like the "Garth Mobile" from Waynes World before, If I was able to jump in game I'd totally go make It... but alas, I am busy.. someone make it happen!

[InMidnightClad]

Nice to see you back around Garth. I present to you the Tuxedo of Cicada paint, Simple, Formal, Classy.

[QueenBlade]

Lets get some nostalgia in here! Robotech varitech fighter colors (VF-1).



And heres one using the newest camo pattern, Crusader

Representing the Skjaldborg's color scheme and the 2nd Drakjägare Ætt.

[BlackholeZ]

I like colors, and I love my Cicadas! so I guess I'll have a go:

On the serious side, I've always loved the Sherman Camo, and it goes well on the Cicada. On the raider I like the non-symmetry and it's just cool. I think the raider is my favorite.




On the sillier side I present you with The Fancymen's color scheme of obnoxiousness and a Cicada with a bad case of acne:

[That Guy]

because I lack all creativity:


Canadian Army CADPAT


US Army UCP


US Marine MARPAT


my 3C
