And now Wolverine and Griffin!!

Oh my gog. I need to do something. I wish I knew how to mask! Then I could make a Template for you guys! D:

[Jack Gallows]

Hate to crush your soul on this...

You need to edit the cockpit, you covered up a lot of the glass. Two panels on the front, one on the top, and one on the side.

Rest of it's choice

[Iqfish]

Fixed, thank you.

Once this week is over I'll have more time to attempt my own template, work and concerts have me locked out till after sunday.

*EDIT*

Also, larger versions of their art from Mechwarrior's Google Plus page

https://plus.google....762003975772161

Just going to have to find a blank background to apply them to to make our own templates.

Not the best work but here is a mod of my best friend's custom Griffin "KATIE".

Not bad, not a bad attempt. I like it.

[Iqfish]

I don't really like my own template :/ I think I will do a new (and hopefully better one) tommorrow or the day after.

EDIT: NO, I don't like it, I hate it. This looks so bad, I did a horrific job on masking the joints out, and the mech is destroyed after I "cleaned" up the Phoenix Paintjob from it.

I mean, look at this:



Vs this:



I'm afraid I'm way less good at this than I expected.

And yet, how do we improve if we do not try?

It can take guts to admit you're bad at something but the real measure of yourself is what you do after.

Try using the non Phoenix variants from this https://plus.google....762003975772161 it will be a lot easier to do. Then, take one of the backgrounds from an existing template and use that.

That you're making the attempt is pretty big I think, and I'm hoping you and I both learn how to do it a lot better so we can help give back to the community that has given us so many great repaints.

My worst mistake was not researching enough and using the Art on the ProPhoenix Page, which was too small, and had Decals on. When I get home in an hour, I'll start a new one.

Thanks for your help Jack

[Jack Gallows]

No problem, hope it helps a lot!

I just wish they'd give us the actual concept arts for them like they did the rest of the 'mechs, it'd make it so much easier. And can't make a good Wolverine nor Griffin right now either since they don't have larger versions of the non Phoenix versions.
Though, having no background might be a good thing...may make it easier to block out sections since you don't have anything beyond the 'mech itself to worry about.

Battlemaster Template

Completely redone the template. The previous one was terribad, I hope this one is better.

How to use:

You can change the colors in the "COLOR HERE!" layer, which is marked blue on the right of your screen.
You can change the text in the bottom right of the template too, this layer is marked green.
The red marked layers should not be changed, this is only for professionals, because you can screw up your whole paintjob with them.
Remember to use "Control + Z" to undo mistakes.

No its the blast pattern from a Merkava

So I wanted to do something to show my appreciation to Ironhawk for all his time and hard work ; template work, insignia work and repaint work.

So here is my take on the Atlas Hunters, rather than do their scheme, I want to do an operational camo, "war-torn", weathered, and otherwise in-combat. Hope, you like it IH.

Atlas Hunters : Urban Raider Camo

[Iqfish]

"ECHELON LEAD MY LANCE IS ALMOST COMPLETE - AAAAHHGHH!"
The horriffic letters "No signal" showed up in his Cockpit.
"Echelon 2 are you hearing me? Echelon 2 I repeat! John, Carter, Katlyn, anyone?"
He just heard static noises.
"Guys, we lost Echelon 2. Stay close, we are getting out of here!" he said into the microfone, his voice fulfilled with fear.
"Affirmative" he heard 3 voices saying.

They ran for their lifes. Speeding with almost 150 kilometers per hour his lance crushes through the woods of the battlefield.

"Warning, incoming missile"
"****! Incoming, get cover and activate AMS!"

It was almost to late. He could see the swarm of the Clan LRMs raining down on his Raven, but the main salvo was just about to come.

"Run! Activate MASC, we habe to get out of here!!"
"I'm doing my best sir, but - cchhhrrrrrr"

He could see Sgt. Marc Bennett's Raven tripping over and falling into the muddy ground. But he could also see the Evacuation Seat rising up into the dark sky.

Suddenly, the LRMs stopped. And the Mortar Fire stopped too.
He looked in the direction where the enemy fire was coming from and saw three big explosions. These kind of explosions exploding Clan Reactors do when they are completely destroyed.

"This is 1st Leutnant Walther Hoffmann, 1st Company of the Tamar Jägers. We are here to save your Davion a**es. Ladies and Gentleman, sit back and enjoy the firework."

A gigantic explosion shook their mechs...

It ain't even my Birthday and I feel like receiving a first gift: community succession in the production of templates! Thanks so much IqfishLP for this template. I will gladly honor it with a repaint soon if you don't mind.

Whoah! Yesterday, the AH played their first full Lance in close to a decade. This is huge to me and means a lot, Bushmaster. Thanks so much. I love it and if you don't mind I'd like to post it, with due credit, on our AH site.

[Iqfish]

Thanks for the kind words Ironhawk I would love to see what you could get out of my mediocre template!
I always used your templates, and your repaints even brought me to try it for myself, but I wanted too repaint the Battlemaster and you did not have it in your DA galery, so I gave it a try.

Now I have even more respect for your work. The process to create a template is long and can get quite boring, and you have a full galery of the, available for the public.

BTW: you just made my day sir
