Another Clan Wolf. Trivia question: what is the MechWarrior's rank?

Clan Wolf Alpha Galaxy and looks to have the Point Rank of Point 2.

Point 2 indeed!

And IH, that is an amazing repaint. You are the master.

[CyclonerM]

I assume that is a Crusader Wolves Alpha Galaxy camo, it looks accurate enough as usually

New request: could anyone repaint a Kit Fox and a Stormcrow with Warden Wolves (or even 3050 Clan Wolf) Alpha Galaxy camo & insignia and 4th point insignia?

Magnificent!
If Ironhawk's repaints aren't the reason for PGI to give us others omnies high res pictures, than I don't know what would it be. I'd even pay (donation 2.0 soon™) for high res art of omni mechs in clan cammos used initially for clan mechs illustrations. They all are gorgeous, can't wait to see future repaints.

I thought the 5 stars on the clan logo would mean it's the Kahn... ?

Such beautiful timberwolves! I want some summoner love, but I get why that may be rough.

We were the GDL before the canon name change. Now we are DHB and the camo is a mix of grey with red trim. Some of us use different grey patterns, but overall it's still close to the GDL camo.
Ingame it ranges from default, over tiger to sherman.
Playing since '98 as GDL myself

back to topic.
Looking at the camo now, it looks a bit too smoky.

Decided to switch to another clan at the request of friend Thunderbird from the AH. He wanted a Jade Falcon Summoner (for the time being, I'll stick with the Timber Wolf).

On a personal note, I find the Jade Falcon challenging because the camo scheme does not appeal to me. Hope I got inspired enough for your enjoyment.

Amazing! Best Timber Wolf so far!

BTW, Falcons FTW!

I'm still waiting for other 'mechs to get a nice repaint other than the Timber Wolf. I like the 'mech as much as the next guy, but I dislike how none of the other 'mechs aren't gett'in any love.
The Kit Fox looks pretty awesome I must say, and needs some repainting action.

I know and that is the reason of my comment

And yes, maybe the camo is a bit too smoky.

We've had both the template makers put their comments up on why you will only see the Timber Wolf for while... here are Iqfish LP's comments on it.

Guys I would love to do templates, but I can't work with these images, that would be a pure waste of time.

Not only they are in a very low resolution, there are many artifacts too.



As you can see, this is not usable at just very little zoom. I will wait till we have higher resolution shots.

Its terrible, I'm sorry.



BUUUUUT

I'm not letting you down. I found a nice shot of the full madcat, the template will be updated

IqfishLP, on 23 December 2013 - 03:01 AM, said:

As already said, creating a template takes about 4-5 hours of time.

I have to mask the mech out, refine the edges, mask the non-painted parts, create the bleach and lighting layers, create and add GFX, paint shadows, paint lighting.

This amount of work would be a total waste of time for the low resolution images. Sorry guys!

Basically the low resolution quality really hampers both the template creation (isolation of the battlemech form the background) and also the detail the repainters can go into colouring them up. I know I personally tried to use the low-res stuff and didn't like the feel/look of trying to work with it. Once PGI give us the real Concept Art like they used to, then you'll see clan mechs flood this thread!

Can you take a personal challenge for Jade Falcon Clan Delta Galaxy Timber Wolf? It was the choice of mine since early 90th, very flamboyant and appealig cammo.

OK, this is what we were waiting for:

Thanks Fishy for finding the complete image.

EDIT: a more dramatic effect to the sky.

PS: Merry Xmas to you all.

EDIT: I just found that the gun in the right torso is actually a machinegun, not the medium pulse laser. Removed the green lens.

Clan Wolf in Exile. Nice.

[Odanan]

Ironhawk? As you are into Jade Falcon stuff, would you consider making the Aidan Pryde's Timber Wolf? (maybe PGI get some ideas...)

[CoffiNail]

Here should be a fun one. Clan Ghost Bear Beta Galaxy. I will upload the insignia I have made up for you to add to it. I would be greatly appreciated. Your reskining of the Wolf and Jade Falcon are wonderful. If you by chance have a Warhawk started could it be possible to skin that Mech? If not no worries, who does not like a Timber Wolf.

Using Apostals template on gimp I have done a Raven Alliance Alpha Galaxy Timberwolf,

[Iqfish]

Didn't know that Apostal made a template

Again, feel free to use my templates but please don't erase my name, to prevent confusion like this.
