if only they would get someone on staff to give paint options that looked this good.

Snowflakes? Really!?!?!?!?! SMH.

Oh sorry Bishop i forgot it. It was very good indeed When will PGI release some higher res concepts so the crazy repainters can work their magic over all the Clan 'Mechs?

Wow, thank you, sir! The Timber Wolf of trueborn MechWarrior Alexander of point 4 of 1st Striker Cluster, callsign Flying Debris. Did I read it correctly, quiaff ?
Nice homage to FD and nice New Year present for me. BTW, I didn't know A. Iglesias is fan of Jade Falcon Clan.

P.S. Happy New Year everyone!

Good catch! It is a homage to Alex. I promised him a colorful repaint so a Timber Wolf with the Clan JF camo was the perfect opportunity for payback. You see, I was extremely lucky and privileged to have both him and Garth welcome me for a couple of hours at PGI. They were extremely generous with their time and provided a warm welcome I shall never forget.

Thanks. Snowflakes? Wear and tear with some damage and scratches here and there. I will do better next time on those, my friend ;-)

naw dude, I'm talking about the last "official" released paint scheme in the mechlab.... bloody snowflakes!!!!!!

[Iqfish]

Ironhawk, you make me drool everytime.

How did you make the paint so realistic?

Everytime I repaint a mech it becomes all dull, like a sandblasted car.

Any tips for a newb like me?

they need to hurry up with Hi-Res Summoner art, so me or Tyberion can fix it properly, and then IronHawk can drop that paint scheme on it.

[Will9761]

Hey Tyberion, any chance you could do an ilClan Blood Spirit symbol? It would be nice to see what would happen if Clan Blood Spirit actually took some initiative, rid themselves of those whinners Bayle Campbell and Karriana Schmitt, and put some real people on the Spirit Clan Council.

[Tyberion]

I'll see what I can do.

I will take more time tomorrow to lay out some of the steps. There are many. I'll also issue an updated template so you can compare the original and the new one. Re: your first comment, I wish my wife could be a MW fan!

Happy New Year!

IH out.

Special post to Alex Iglesias:

Sir, this is a special thanks to you for all of the great MechWarrior art you produced for the game. It is a true inspiration to us and represents by far the best rendition of BattleMechs we've ever seen. It is a genuine pleasure to work over your art and produce these humble fan made skins. You are a great artist and you now have 250 forum thread pages of fan love to prove it!

Happy New Year!

Ironhawk

Thanks Tyberion I love it! While it seems that the Blood Scorpions are on the prowl.

Shame we all know the real Phranken wont look as good

[Pariah Devalis]

It looks good, but am I the only one thinking it kinda looks like a fish?

[Will9761]

That Phracken skin on the Timber Wolf looks beast man! Nice job.

As promised yesterday, here is the template (updated from IqfishLP's) for the Timber Wolf. It is a complete base with wear and tear the way you like it. A lot of the parts have been subject to clean up and extra wear and tear that you haven't seen yet in my other TW renditions.

Timber Wolf template

If PGI issues higher res of the other Phoenix and Clan 'Mechs, then other templates will follow. Enjoy!
