Marik nothing, they are Cicadas. You should be terrified.

Still waiting for #6.

OK, here is my "serious" Firestarter repaint:

[Dirus Nigh]

When I look at the firestarter, all I can see is a Star Wars Rebel pilot.

I'm still waiting on one from IH, as I don't really care how long it takes him as much as he is taking the time to do this for me and everyone else.
IH, you rock man. Even if I haven't seen what you've done with my idea but knowing someone cares enough to do things like you and others gives me hope in this game and community.

Thanks for the kind words, and for your patience!

[Bishop Steiner]

well, pretty sad they altered my PUG, but here is another PUG that would have continued the collection


It's a PUG-in-the-Box. Wind up the autocannon, and it plays 10 seconds of "Pop Goes the Liao" then the Urbies head flips open and the PUG springs out.

OMG... Bishop, extraordinary as always!

Sorry if this has been posted before, but did anyone post up a template file of the Thunderbolt already. I seem to remember there was but I accidentally cleared my templates folder on my drive

This is my first time doing a repaint of mech art. I have repainted this Hunchback in my unit's colors of the Hesperus II Tamarind March Militia. So let me know any comments, advice, or feedback for painting mechs.

You could try to low the saturation to make the mech more "natural".

Also, try to leave some parts in grey or original color, specially the actuators and internal machinery - this would enrich all the painting.

PS: very nice work with the decals. The Marik killmarks are impressive. (so it was you who killed my cousin?!)

I don't know if the Thunderbolt had its art released in a decent size... (and I don't remember to see a template around)

BTW, Hayden, I just completed the book Warrior: En Garde and there is a description of "Dragon Slayer":

Quote

Ardan Sortek's Victor waded through burning Panthers and stepped over the fallen Griffin. Resplendent in the blue and gold of the Davion Home Guards, it looked utterly out of place among the 'Mechs camouflaged for jungle warfare. The battlefield flames skittered in
glittering highlights off the humanoid 'Mech's gold trim, but failed to pierce the dark canopy over the cockpit. As smoke from the Griffin twisted up and around it like offertory incense, the Victor waited.

The image in the book's cover is based on that description:

well done, but you might want to tone down the hue saturation a skosh. The colors are alittle more day-glo than canon, I believe, lol!

[Iqfish]

Dat saturation!

Don't get me wrong: Great result for first attempt, just try to make your mechs a little more "real" looking.
