First off, I can't thank Alistair Winter enough for the glorious pixel mechs that have been made over the years. If you haven't seen them yet, you need to check them out asap. Alistair's Clan mechs are here, and Inner Sphere mechs are here.
I've been inspired to try my hand at creating some pixel mechs, and I started with the classic mechs (Marauder, Warhammer, Archer and Rifleman).
With some excellent feedback from AW, a lot of obsessing over each and every pixel, and basically redoing almost all of the Archer, I've come up with the versions below. Hope you like them!
Even though AW is going to be making more mechs at last, I still plan to do some more (possibly all of them?). Partially because I'm impatient, but also because it's fun and I want the challenge Likely candidates are some of my personal favorites, like the Hunchback IIC and maybe the Mauler. I don't drive any in MWO, but I have a soft spot for the design since it was featured in the cheesy TV show I loved as a kid...
IS update: Lights and mediums are all done now. There's a finish line in sight... which clearly means PGI will announce a new mech pack.
"Final" Clan update: They're pretty much done after all these years! I may still come back and tinker, but it's crazy to not have any gaps in the lineup after all this time... true to form I uploaded a version with an updated flamer design and noticed the Adder was actually missing its flamer entirely. Fixed now
