BTW, Garth promised to upload better quality picture of Cataphract, without those speckles and unsharp lines.

I'm pretty sure they will give us the non-crappy version for sure, but I failed to find Garths poast about it.


Oh, and OhGilPin, really nice work with that Cataphract. But next time, just post here you reserve Death Commandos Cataphract for yourself, rather than posting WIP repaints.

My attempt on Cataphract CTF-3D


I stepped away from canonical design by moving Ultra Autocannon-5 to left torso - that would allow
to balance centre of mass which is very helpful when you are hopping on jump jets.

Friend, you'll need to update your sig with the latest NW Highlanders shield in Unit Insignia. This one is so old school... :-) Shameless self promotion hehe.

Well we will be working on our rebranded Windbourne Highlanders sig for this forum very soon, but I'd love to see your version.
Do you have a link to it?

[Adridos]

Just a minor thing. You left a Liao insignia on its leg and we all know that variant is a Davion piece of crap.

And Maxoconnor, sir. Here's the link: http://mwomercs.com/...a/page__st__360

Have you heard about salvage, Adridios ? Don't be so zealous, Jihad era is too far away to start religious wars out of 'Mech manufacturer's allegiance

Wouldn't want to bump in to this in a forest.

[Hartsblade]

Nicely done!

[Adridos]

Nice camo, but I think you overdid the shade of mech shapes a bit (mainly the legs), because it looks too stealthy for a mech.

[William Chase Davion]

Looks good

IH, would you mind sharing that template once you've finished cleaning it up etc, the last one you cleaned up for the cicada was ace

Judging by his post, I'd say we'll have to wait for Garth to post a picture of Cataphract in better quality.

[Blackfang]

Yeah I saw that, but I don't recall Garth having said that though?

Neither do I, but even if he didn't, I'd love him to post a more refined version of it.

Well, I haven't found that message lxxxl is talking about. Did he find it on the Russian forum? Anyway, I am back to template work. Question: can this official variant support JJ's or does its setup have max'd out tonnage?

Great piece of montage. You scooped me on that idea of using the template in the new desert concept.

I think there's an anti-repaint lobby at PGI these days. Latest 3 'Mechs, though amazingly well designed by FD, are a pain to clean up for overpaint jobs. Alright I'll admit this does not fix anything... but it felt good to say it.
