no argument here but Zeus X=3119! http://www.sarna.net...01px-Zeus_X.jpg

No, Zeus-X were tooling around as weapon/technology test-beds during the (admittedly very late) Clan Invasion as that Maximum Tech cover shows, it was only in 3119 that they actually started mass-producing it. And the Fins are just cosmetic, any additional cooling is non-stat fluff-town.

Ignoring that though, Zeus would be a very nice 'Mech to see even if 80 tons slot is (pardon the pun) a little heavy already

But next IS mech is one of these: Mongoose, UrbanMech, Lancelot, Grasshopper or an assault of a long list (Zeus, Mauler, King Crab, Charger, Hatamoto or Cyclops).

But Hellbringers are clannerscuuuuuuuum!!! ;_;

Anyway, i like Bishop Steiner's rendition of the Lancelot. got a bit of a Dark Souls vibe to it!

[Odanan]

This is a selection of most of your best works, Bishop. I always loved that Lancelot and you Grasshopper is probably the only sexy Grasshopper out there.

[Hagoromo Gitsune]

Pillager, Mackie, Devastator, King Crab... A.S.A.P. for CW's.

[Hagoromo Gitsune]

Actually I preddict that Zeus will be a good brawler having builds with 1B+3E+1/2M or 2B+3E+1M slots.

The industry map will add a FPS flavor to the game. I'm looking forward to play it (without bugs).

Wow. That Zeus and Battlemaster could stand to spend some time on the treadmill. Been hitting the potatochips hard it seems.

They are very fat, but the Zeus looks even heavier than the Battlemaster.

Considering his Dragon and Awesome, this artist is like the Fernando Botero of mechs.

yet Funnily...my fave is probably the Cyclops, but I appear to be the only one who likes that particular reinterpretation, lol. (Mongoose, Lancelot and Urbie are all right up there, too, IMO, but, only Urbie gets much love, lol) and actually, for Grasshopper.....


not normally a huge proponent of Shortpainter, not because of any slight on his quality (he's way better than me) but his "vision" and style just doesn't feel "Battletechy" to me, in general. That said, his Grasshopper, Charger and Blackjack are all top notch.

Yep, this Cyclops is amazing. (and the electronics backpack is nice)

And I love the "head" of this one:

[Bishop Steiner]

a profile version for the one in my "action shot" (sometimes think the migraine red background may have been a tad TOO distracting)

Remember, it only packs 10 tons of armor, stock, HALF of what the 10 tons heavier Atlas pack, or the same as a 40 ton lighter Hunchback. So to me, making it too bulky seemed...off.

It actually screams macross/robotech to me

Love your Lancelot, Bishop, especially the head and arm joints (which the original art does not have). I think I have turned color blind in the process of admiring it, though... yowzers
