That's a Quickdraw?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

SERIOUSLY?!?!?!?!?!?!

Yup. Been staring at FASA/FanPro/CGLs crap art for 30 years, sad I can pick out one crap design from another, even in THAT crappy a portrayal.

Thank Goodness CGL seems determined to break that mold of late.

Bah. The Black kniiiiiiiiighit already has a good redesign from the jihad era art work of it. The grasshopper seriously needs the love. Sadly both the black knight and the grasshopper suffer from having similar load outs on all the variants. At least the grasshopper has jump jets.

This may be cause for lynching or excommunication or something, but I actually do not like David White's Black Knight. Go figure. Of course Vassago had to go find the most hideous Grasshopper art out there to try and stack the deck. So that needs to be fixed.

Sure it is CCG art, but it is good CCG art.

The TRO Prototypes variant looks a bit better, but yeah, BT has a lot of crap-looking robots. However, Alex made even the Jenner look halfway decent, so I'd rather vote based on potential stats than potential looks.

Still think it looks like a Hammer drone...

I already lent my support to the hopper. The Black Knight is a lame duck without the hatchet.

People are voting on bad 80's artwork more than what we're actually going to get.

If only that were how the Black Knight would look; instead of the ugly gangly thing it will look like

I never thought the miniatures looked that bad... a bit of an odd lower torso section, but otherwise I liked it.

Well, in all fairness, MWO does completely redo the artwork. The Grasshopper will look much different and probably much cooler than that art.

However, the Black Knight could look pretty awesome. Again, a bit too anime-ish IMO, but still would look pretty cool. I'd support that.

P.S. Is it just me, or does the Cicada in the top artwork have a bit of Pixar Cars treatment going on. I swear it looks like cartoon eyes above the cockpit LOL.
