Yeah, UI modded an in game model to carry 4 AC barrels for my 4X on my old siggy. Dunno what it would take to turn one into a template though, but would LOVE to see them done. Is it Heffay who has done some?

I did one as a get-well present a few months ago, it's not official, but I never released it publicly.

Is it me, or is the concept art Centurion attractively slimmer than the real deal?

Well I went searching for more Quickdraw background in the TRO3050, came across 'Hauptmann Jessup', Commander of 1st Company 2nd Battalion of the 26th Lyran Guards. Thus inspiration hit, since I wanted to play with the Quickdraw, so having used camo-spec.com as references I tried to recreate their parade scheme.

[Max OConnor]

I'm guessing Iron Hawk has done a template for the Quickdraw? Does anyone have a link to it?

Bump back to the top of the forum here, where it belongs!

Where are the sexy Quickdraw repaints?? Just saying, the QD has NEVER looked this good. Those with the talent to do so, please regale us with more amazing repaints. After so long a drought, I'd love to see some classic B'tech units colors represented on the Victor and Quickdraw... Real life allowing of course.

And, Mr. Hayden, I have a query that I don't necessarrily expect you'll be able to answer, but that I thought might be worth asking all the same.

Will mercenary corporations such as Death's Hand Brigade, Windborne Highlanders, etc. etc. be able to submit a paint scheme concept to PGI to be considered and if approved, added to the game for that specific Mercenary Corp. to use in Community Warfare? I.E. If you belong to DHB in the Community Warfare side of MWO, you have access to that skin which you can then purchase with MC if you so choose. Or will it be limited to decal/emblems only? Just curious if you'd be able to comment on it if ypu can, or if nothing else share the idea with the rest of the staff at PGI and see what they think

Thanks, and I look forwards to seeing what's coming down the pipe.

<S> I'll be looking for you guys dirtside in the meantime.

Yessir! Rightawaysir!

I'll admit, I've been eyeing off the Victor and Quickdraw, but a 3D modelling project has been eating my time. Finally taken a break for a little paint.

And how can you think "Quickdraw" without thinking "Rangers"?

Yeah, I've always thought that the concept design for the Centurion looked a lot slimmer and much more attractive than how it looks in-game. I feel that some designs look even better in-game than what their respective concept designs look like, unfortunately this is not the case with the Centurion. I really wish we could see a re-do of this mech's in-game art, but it will probably never happen though.

In my honest opinion, the Centurion is the best looking 'mech in terms of the concept art we have. It is, again in my opinion, the most gorgeous model there is out of all the ones we currently have. The way the chest is shaped and the narrow waist, with those shapely legs... and the pose in the art helps. I feel more like I'm talking about a girl than a 'mech. >.> But hey, it's sexy. Unfortunately, in-game, I would go so far as to say it's unattractive. I bought one because of the concept art, (I'm sure you think that's dumb.) and subsequently sold it once I got tired of looking at the ugly in-game model. (Perhaps also silly.) I think it's something to do with the height and the legs. It's... stocky? Idk. I would love to see it redone too. It's like that song goes, "You could be better than you are... you could be swingin' on a star." It could be so much cooler! Q.Q

Hah Waco's Rangers. I remember my buddies leaving Rogue's Warriors after MW3 and making Waco Rangers group right after. Good times

I dunno, personally I love the look of the Centurion in game. It's my favourite model. In fact, If i happen to be piloting something else and I see a Cent, it makes me want to pilot one.

"Jenkins! Where has all the red paint gone?"

"Sorry, sir, the Atlas Hunters came by, said they needed to requisition it all. An emergency, they said."

"Blast! And here I am, meant to be doing repaints for Colonel Havok! How am I meant to do a Death's Hand Brigade BattleMech without any red paint?"

"Well, sir. I've been thinking. Maybe...we don't have to do a DHB 'Mech. Leave that to Killhunger, and focus on appeasing the Colonel with paint schemes that don't involve red. Or, at least, not much red; we've still got a little bit left."

"I like your thinking, corporal. What did you have in mind?"

"Well, sir, how about the 4th Oriente Hussars? Despite being from the Free Worlds League, they're mostly green, rather than pink, red and blue."



"Hmm, it's a start. Don't let the Leaguers hear you say that, though. Last time I heard someone call 'purple' 'pink' he was sentenced to peacekeeping duty on Andurien. What's next?"

"How about House Hiritsu? One of the Capellan warrior houses?"



"Are all these going to be green, Jenkins?"

"Well, technically, House Hiritsu is silvery-green, sir."

"That's still green."

"Yes sir. But we're trying to avoid red, sir, and that doesn't leave us many options. Moving away from the Successor States, we could try a pirate group, like the New Belt Pirates."



"Alright, I guess that'll do. And so far, we haven't used any red paint except for the insignia for the Oriente Hussars."

"There was a bit of red in the House Hiritsu and New Belt Pirates insignia too, sir."

"Noted, corporal. What about Victors? The Colonel said he was interested in Victors, too, and so far, all you've shown me are Quickdraws."

"Ah, I think the 1st Ceti Hussars could help here."



"Jenkins! Are you mad? That cost us almost all of our remaining red supplies!"

"Sorry, sir, but I think it was worth it."

"We'll see. You'd better have something good in mind for another Victor."

"Yes sir. The 1st Coventry Jaegers."



"...Jenkins?"

"Yes sir?"

"Report for mine disposal duty. And don't ever set foot in my paint shop again."
