Any chance of seeing this famous pic redone with the new Catapult?

It says Northwind Highlanders on the torso and its the 2nd Kearny Highlanders tartan.

Hayden, I just thought of a brilliant idea. You know how I talked about those variations of mechs, right? I just got an idea on how to make it easily. Just photoshop the rocket launchers, so you can make Catapults with both of them closed, both open, or the left open while the right will be closed. Also, could you try it on a Liao color scheme first? Thanks.

Brilliant ideas need not be shouted.

in regards to this... the MW Online logo is in a really bad spot... doh

[Adridos]

That is a pity. So we can just close them, or find someone who can draw the rest for us based on that frozen city concept art. Why cannot they just give us the picture without the logo, when they give us the HD version.

We should ask for HD version of that concept ASAP, so we can zoom in and probably do something with it, so it will fit here.

it's still possible... just more work to create the rest of the door.




on edit: i moved the missle door variants to their own thread

I'd have the inside of the right flap say "HEY YOU" and the inside left say "CATCH".

[Adridos]

Well, Hayden, you have a lot of material to work with, you can start using all those variants of launchers Dagger made to make this topic even more diverse than it ever was. Lets hope you will not run out of paint when new mech comes in.

Anyone know where I can get a front-on view of the new Catapult? I ask because I need to rebuild...



Replacing the Timberwolf with the new Cat nose. If anyone's got a front-view, I would be grateful. Thanks.

Haha, don't I wish. Actually, getting a job offer would put me in an awkward place, since I'd have to choose between passion and the job I have now with the excellent benefits...

Yeah, I think I can get around to that.

I actually started on this last night, and I do have the one with "closed" doors already done. I'll be putting up a Chesterton Reserves 'mech with that feature shortly.

No template yet. I'll put one up eventually.

Um... I might (MIGHT) surprise you with something later. Maybe.

Here is a Catapult from the Caesar's Cohorts Mercenary unit. Again, practicing this masking thing for stripes. Again, .jpeg conversion feels a little wonky - but not as bad as the one below. I tried to get the numbering to look like those fiber-optic lights that race cars are using for their numbering during night races now. Don't think I'll do that again.



St. Ives Compact, 1st Janissaries. SIC Insignia courtesy Hayden. Janissary insignia courtesy Sarna. Experimented with using the lasso tool to mask off parts for stripes. Something happened during conversion/compression/etc. that has hurt the quality of this a bit - especially near the SIC logo. First 'Mech I've seen with 'dress pants'. Original is here: http://camospecs.com...ure.asp?ID=3857

LOVING that Caesars Legion 'mech! Well done, sir!

[MitchellTyner]

So how about a Kell Hounds Hunchback... my preferred merc group with my preferred mech ... well until the commando comes out lol

I would be extraordinarily grateful, Hayden; IF you're able to do something, thank you. My best solution, at this point, is to attempt to remove, point-for-point, from iso to head-on, and though I tried it last night, I just didn't get it right. The graphic I posted was from a scan of the front cover of the BattleTech CCG book, then I turned it grayscale, chose a good concrete texture, and embossed it.
