OK, bad innuendo aside, and any issues I may have with performance (yes, insert bad joke here!),
one thing is certain:

The Archer translated well as an in game model. Maybe not perfect to Alex's concept art, but she's still one of the most unique and sexy ladies to come to our mechbays in quite some time.

Sadly, I do not have the wherewithal ATM to make this a "prize" contest like my other ones, (perhaps over the next week, that will change, we will see), so at the moment, this is all about showing off.

Still, in case I can add some prizes, please follow the usual formatting. If you are going to post more than one screenie, designate which is your "entry" and then place the rest under "Spoilers".

Thanks!

My "Damage Incorporated" paint scheme seems to translate well to the Tempest

Spoiler

my "CLU" themed 2R(S), followed by my VF103 themed one for the Wrecking Crew and the last off my Reavers Merc Brigade.

So far what I am running


****UPDATE****

Thanks to Oberosts generosity, a Prize has been added. Since it is his generosity that made it possible, I'll let him do the talking:
"Following the same rules than the last Bishop contest for the Rifleman, the picture with the most "likes" at the end of the 28th of this month (March), will receive a basic Phoenix Hawk pack or whatever mech pack of 20 $ or less value."

So there you have it. Multiple entries, Multiposts, etc without the actual "Designated Entry" will be disqualified. SO kindly place your extra pics under a Spoiler, like the one in the OP.

Thank you all!

Can you show me the paint you used on this one? It looks really good.

I tried the blues, reds, greens, purples, but liked the yellow best.

Nice, I might buy the Archer later, so that might be a future paint job I might want.

Wait for Cbills or a MASSIVE change to quirks. I want to love it, because it's so pretty. But it's really not a very good Gundam.

I like the Archer so much that two of them have custom Camo already.

I swear, if there was a way to put a green feathered hat on an archer...

...I'd totally paint it green and brown, and call it Robin Hood.

First time I've paid much attention to how the Archer looks. Is the cockpit really sitting there at the end of the nose like a big shoot me here bulls-eye?

It's probably just one of the windows that's the actual headshot hitbox. Kind of like how the DWF has a massive 6-window cockpit, but only the centre lower one is the actual headshottable one.

It is, but oddly I have never taken head damage, except by Arty strikes.

Amazing, it just seems that is where most fire would be directed even without the cockpit. Spiffy paint jobs, by the way.

[TexAce]

Would love to. But I have no archer.

[thehiddenedge]

I don't have any Archers, but that's one damn fine looking mech. I look forward to seeing what people can come up with for this one.

I really want to try my Archers but alas i cant yet download the 7GB patch, as i only have 6.3GB data left till the 31st of the month

Well that's a kick in the nuts. No way to grab the files on a thumb drive elsewhere?
