You really think it's gonna change? I reckon he's just giving you a nice uh-huh nod. PGI are notoriously stubborn unless it hits their bottom line. I bet that what we see now is exactly what we'll get.

I thought this was settled. The Clans used their cloning technology to clone Natasha and use her clone as a weapon to help defeat the Inner Sphere. The real Natasha is in cryogenic sleep on a ship in space somewhere or crash landed on a planet or in a clan prison.

Think about it. Would the most famous Inner Sphere mercenary really turn on her own allies and friends? The Wolf's Dragoon's were given an entire planet if I remember correctly.

what did i tell you about eating paint chips again?

[Hexenhammer]

I wonder when we'll get to see the updated model.

Russ?

I'm guessing after it's done, lol? Doubt it will be anytime this week.

Actually several of us tweeted Russ, he said he'd look into it. The only chance of getting changes is to 'ask nicely' before the thing releases so they have the chance to make the changes now and not after it would take them even MORE work.

Sorry, what was that? I couldn't quite hear you over Russ...

well if the modellers can't inset the cockpit like the art work, should they be doing the job that is the one part that makes it look like they paid lip service to alex work

Actually, for some reason, the cockpit/head was made taller in the Orthos (what the modelers use to go off of) so this time it actually wasn't their fault. (Makes me wonder what the Enforcer's Orthos looked like.)

Its also the reason for the stiff arms.

Nah, orthographics are made that way so that it's easier to model, the one who drew it however could've made "final posture" image to help those who will rig and animate the model.

Now should starts the whine about how Warhammer's head looks like Awesome's, and original mech had cockpit above shoulders.
I was ok with previous version (except window textures). I'm ok with fixed. As long as WHM is seen.

[Dawnstealer]

Low-slung, but we already knew that: thing's going to have to be a brawler. Pull them PPCs for LPLs!

Depending on the arm angle changes it might make a good left/right side peeker.

looks considerably below shoulders to me

as does that

[Pariah Devalis]

Head, shoulders, knees, or toes. I don't care. I just want the Wham-bros (Warhammer and Hellbie) to have functional spotlights, damn it!

You know, so I could strobe hateful messages in morse across the map. Or blind people in Night Vision. Or embark in a most epic "flash off" with an enemy mech. >_>

[cazidin]

The most epic "flash off", huh? You do know that flashing is illegal, right?

[BigBenn]

I'm very much looking forward to the Warhammer's release in middle January!!!

PGI, make it happen.

If that tweet refers to changes like this, I like the head change.. now WHM looks less like Mr Hat.
Arms, hmm maybe they look nicer though as some pointed WHM arms have been kinda stiff angled ones, so the original ones might for once been appropriate (Normally I hate the way they tend to model arms)

Nice, might end up getting one for cbills after all, though I fear how low the arms hang, could be MAD okay
