It's a notion I like, there was a very similar paint scheme in the Jade Falcon Sourcebook from '92 that I was going to recommend. Probably more likely to happen as a one-off "Hero" pattern than a skin set, if it does at all. There's a whole decision-making process, so we'll just have to wait and see! (Or not see, if it doesn't happen!)

Oh, I actually have this book. Do you mean the Elemental (terrific) or the Summoner (kind of ugly) paintjob? (between pages 64 and 65)

Indeed it would be easier to add these totem paintings for hero mechs...

Just woke up, I will make as much templates as I can.

Now that we have them, I would absolutely love to see a Dire Wolf painted in the colors of These guys again

The resolution of the images in the Facebook is terrible. I wouldn't recommend to work on that...

[Iqfish]

Oh really? Did not realize that but im afraid you are right. Damnit

Well, that and partly obscured, tiny pics you've got on the pre-order page are the best we'll get until the 17th of June.

Who is capable of creating templates? Im thinking that we should split the work, because I need about 4 hours for a good template and I would need to do 8 Mechs...

[Ironhawk]

I am incapable before Dec 26. However, from the looks of it, it seems like Alex and the PGI crew have found a way to keep me busy between Xmas and the New Year! At last! :-)

[Iqfish]

Okay, I will do the Uller, Blackhawk, Thor and Daishi.

That should keep me busy until christmas, if noone else does the other ones I will do them too.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

[BlackPhoenix01]

I wouldn't mind doing it if I knew how :/ Sorry guys lol. I just now how to color things in and stay inside the lines O_O

Hmm, i thought Prime variants were going to come with that awesome Clan paintjob they used to have ..

+10 to PGI if i will be able to unlock that kind of scheme in CW.

That is a job for us, crazy repainters, CyclonerM! All the better after if our work here inspires PGI somewhat.

Logically, faction skin jobs will be released along with CW. IMHO, PGI should start with largest, most popular IS and Clan armies, prioritizing skins on each faction's set of 'Mech chassis of choice instead of trying to skin all variants for each BT paint theme. That way, they won't have to boil the ocean and this would make sense for those of us who crave BT feel/experience in-game...

Hayden, can you please explain, sir, why PGI has chosen to share Clan Omnies art in such awful resolution and such awful redaction? Where are initial skins with Clans and Units insignias? Are PGI management is so f@cking greedy to upload full resolution images? Do they want us to purchase every digital art piece for 55$?
The art itself is great, kudos to FD.

You're probably right about faction colorschemes not arriving until CW is here. When that does happen though I will be wanting to put the 3rd Proserpina Hussars colors on my Thunderbolt, darnit!

Unfortunately, that kind of call is above my station. I'm going to decline further comment on that, because I don't really have anything productive to add.

Maybe you can arrange a QnA session with responsible manager then?

Hayden is not PGI, stop bringing things in here that do not belong here!

Fight your "revolution" somewhere else but not here. Thanks.

His badge clearly shows his belonging to PGI's staff. My questions had nothing with N.O.P.E. And I don like the tone you chose to mention me. Please mind your own business, Thanks,

[Iqfish]

This is a thread named "Repainted Concept Art" Not "Ask your questions to an artists why PGI's management makes the decisions it makes"

It does not belong here.

I actually like the leg changes. More like the classics, but those damned bike racks....

Those aren't bike racks, they are bars the Elementals can hang on to! :-) The IS will find out soon enough!!

IH out.

Ya know, we were discussing that on coms last night and that was our conclusion too. It was sparked by the question of why it was where it was on the Timber Wolf. Seemed so out of place, until we considered power armor.
