Lmao that's just pure brilliance! The legs are indeed great & the arms folding out is super cool as well.

Spoiler

I would like to clean it up, but don't know how to do it properly, so I'll just leave it as it is.

I'm getting a Starslayer - Avatar vibe with this one. It seems to be standing taller that what you'd expect from a Nightstar. I like asymmetry in my mechs so I like this one too

Edit: I think it's the stockier, less elongated torso.

I like it a lot! I think the torso could've been a smidgen more elongated but I think the arms turned out really well. I like the personal touch, "War" on the shoulder.

Thanks a bunch man for all the effort you put into this mech. You were the first to take up the pen for this and your dedication was inspiring. <o

You are welcome, mate! Always glad to help!

You are right about the torso, it should have been a bit longer, I even wanted to make it longer, but somehow I forgot about it.Someday I will return to this.

Always good to see artists willing to give something a go.

Please give a mini-quote to me should any Mech Art arrive here, I will be happy to -- with permission as permission can be acquired here unless in some instances -- have them in my queue of 3D mechs to build, rig, animate and use in a future cinematic I'm working on. (Worst comes to worst, it'll go into side projects which'll basically be episodes that come out (hopefully) like a 3D version of Critical Hits meets All Systems Nominal and poke light-hearted fun at BT/MW/MWO.)

That reminds me... I made a post while I couldn't get online to pitch an idea to get basic concept art for a Flea's cockpit.
Need to get some screens of the roughdraft interior of the classic Flea's cockpit view with pilot size/view to go with it before I start that thread though.

Currently working on classic Flea, a fanart Flea, and Shimmering Sword's Blackjack (with a few other Blackjacks in the queue; going with simplest first to really get used to it again and 'evolving' from there.)

Absolutely have a go at it man! You see what kiriage's done with my Jackal? I'm also tinkering a redo on my Assassin, and got to clean up and finish my old Dervish, still.

Haven't seen the Jackal, seen the 3D King Crab though. Got a link to Jackal?

Hey if you did the Nightstar in 3D that would be pure awesome!

With who's version, though?

I could combine the first mini and the original art to conjure up something based on the original look. But those weapons look horrid.

(Any idea how tall this thing is? BT's really wonky about mech heights; so wildly variable and chicken-walkers tend to be much shorter than humanoids).

Choose whichever one you like best, feel most inspired by.

As for height, I'd probably base it on the Stalker. If you add to massive gun arms that ought to put you in the ball park of a 95 ton chicken-walker.

Stalker height sounds about right.

@ Kon.
I'd say take inspiration from all of them. Pick your favourite parts and run with it. Maybe you like LastKhan's arms, Bishop's body (sounds wrong doesn't it?) And Krigg's legs, etc.
