Ok, here it is...Skye Jaegers Atlas:
I snipped the image to cut back on scroll-finger, but it really is beautiful... very nicely done. I have been absolutely thoroughly impressed with all I've seen thus far; thank you, guys, especially you Hayden, for helping me get my 'Mech imagination going.
Okay, the following is proving to be long-winded, even for me... I apologize and, of course, if this is too much, please discuss it with me and we'll work to tone it down, alright? I'm just extremely grateful... thank you.

Colonel, I am more than pleased to take requests, and am especially excited at the notion of doing an original request. The bulk of the stuff I do are existing units, so this would be a neat project. Here's what I would like from you:
-Colors (Hex numbers work best. This is a good reference:
http://en.wikipedia..../List_of_colors )
-Pattern (flat, tigerstripe, flecktarn, I can do it all! Also tell me if there are things like racing stripes, gradients or certain panels that need it)
Actually, a friend of mine from late MechWarrior 3, early 4 days made a somewhat unique camo pattern for me... I don't know if it's possible, so if not, let me know and we'll see about going with more solid colors, k?
The blue might need to be reduced to something that is less than neon -unless I'm the only one who sees it that way-, but I'll leave that to your capable hands... I swear, this used to look darker to me...
Also, some thick and thin caution strips as you've done on some other 'Mechs to this point... I think those are absolutely essential to combat machines, having been an Army helicopter mechanic for fifteen or so years, now, hehe.

-'Mech (we have a few to choose from, the four official releases, plus my "poor-man's" Hunchback IIC and Great Wyrm).
The standard Hunchback would be fine with me, please? I really would love to see what Mr. Iglesias would do with a Wolverine; I understand the Unseen can't be used, unless pretty heavily modified, but the latest Japanimation Wolverine is too slender, doesn't have enough chutzpah to it.

-Unit Insignia (you can provide these, or have me whip some up, but I'll need details).
I need to try and find my flat version, though to be honest, I'm not sure I have it, anymore. Right, I do not have the flat standard, anymore; fortunately, this is a geometric shape, so it should be easy to bring out. Hopefully, this can be placed somewhere on the upper portion of the 'Mech, though I understand space restrictions. Also, the 1st Battalion logo is below the unit logo, and I think it would almost be perfect on the front of the AC/20, somehow, hehe.
This is the unit standard, and...
and this is for the Battalion.

-Any little bits of flair, or detail. Nose art, warning signs, and so on.
Along the base of the head, perhaps horizontal along the torso near the cockpit, "Gideon", in some dark gold or silver lettering, maybe some kill markers, at your discretion, and the 'Mech number 777, anywhere. Also if it would be possible, some nose art...

Oh, my... no... thank you. I'm not sure if this is too racy or not, but I understand the average age of this community is 30, so hopefully it's not too bad.
Oh, and don't go to the link... I never went there before now, but have just found out it's a **** site... fortunately, the text is only in the image, and not a bloody link. I did NOT get this from there, by the way (red-faced).
