head feels all wrong, and I'd love to see a trend getting back to the laser being on the side of the paddle as it was in "Loose's original.
only two openings on the front , both with warheads clearly marked.
His line art style was merry hell for people to sometimes get perspective from though, so the focal lens was mistaken by the 3050 artist as being a flat "do-hickey" on the side, despite it being the box (you can see the lump for it on the outside of the right arm) and lens of the laser. It's one of a few accidental 3D illusions he created. But yes, that is the location of the medium laser.
The legs are pretty good but the head and upper torso just seem very off to me. Not a bad looking design, it just doesn't scream "Dervish". Does make me think I need to finish my old rough though.
Actually..... "fix" the forearms, and remove that odd Urine Collection cup from the crotch, and that original you took the legs from id a pretty fantastic piece. Not taking anything away from Alan, but this just says "Dervish" and would be what I would hope Alex uses as a starting point should we ever see one in MWO (doubtful now that the time shift has occurred)
the sensor probe is of course an add on, but makes sense... I will say, the elbow joint is also a bit nonsensical, though it looks pretty cool.
Okay, I just ran across this (old, I
know) post while looking for Battletech art, and I don't know what surprises me more; that it was drawn by Sid/Insidious/Simplejay (great artist, dropped off DeviantArt to work on Heavy Gear Assault and his work is
really hard to find) or that it's an ImageShack link which
actually works.
