This needs to be done. Those fat ankle just make it look awkward and under-armored everywhere else. The faux-missile add-ons would at least give it some decent looking bulk up top.

I ... don't see any difference? And that seems to be the nose (or chest, technically) to me ... as ankles are between the leg and the foot.

They should totally thin the legs on that thing....it just doesnt quite look right with those huge ass legs and it's stubby little torso.

What I proposed was taking the piece added to the Mad Dog A's side torso when putting an LRM into the 2nd missile hard point which I outlined in red (that big grey piece) and adding it to the Invasion variant without requiring it to have a missile equipped to be added and not being a 'functional' piece like it is on the Mad Dog A. Effectively becoming an aesthetic with all the tubes closed as the fat ankles are.

Unique Geometry aesthetics, would balance out the Kankles.

I don't understand, you talk about the ankles in the title, then in the content you talk about the face.

The ankles make it bottom heavy. Take the ST Missile torpedo style tubes, remove the tube art to make it a solid 'armor' piece that doesn't add any real hitbox addition, and then you have a (I) variant Mad Dog that looks like a badass, armored up machine of death.

Take the Timby and MDD, crouch them down more, thin the legs out a little, take the MDDs guns, triple the barrel length and lengthen the nose a little. I wanna see the nose in my cockpit like a Dragon.

This...was specifically aimed at making the (I) variant Mad Dog a little...uh, better. It was claimed 'special geometry' but just got the TBR's fat ankles... So creating some 'extra armor' visuals with the ST missile object without missiles would give it a little flair in addition to the ankles.

Its really the thighs that need thinning on those legs. it makes the upper portion look horribly disproportionately sized.

The part that needs to go is the area on the front of the thighs, if they thinned them back to that bulge on the side of the leg, it would look alot better.
