When talking Mechs.. seems a common grammatical error to call something AWESOME..

Just want to clarify something..

These are astonishing, awe-inspiring, bad @ss, beautiful, breathtaking, cool, daunting, exalted, fantastic, formidable, gorgeous, grand, great, imposing, impressive, intimidating, magnificent, majestic, mean, mind-blowing, moving, overwhelming, shocking, striking, stunning, stupefying, wonderful, wondrous, wicked

I will say this view of it is one of my favorites of all the work I could find online.. :)

That is until MW:O unveils the new one.. which I am sure I will think is AWESOME :wacko:

Wat. . . the Awesome is one of the most awesome designs ever . .

The only thing MORE awesome than the Awesome is the awesome Clan 95t Awesome that goes by the name of Hellstar, but does not fool anybody . .

Do we get the same ammount of money to buy our Mechs?
Either me, because i can afford THREE of them, or Me, again, because i can afford one and you can afford none . .
And even in BV2 this still holds up, seeing how one Hellstar costs as much as TWO Awesome . .
And the Awesome has no XL-Reactor, making it a bit tougher.
And because you are a clanner, you are a sucker for a fair fight . .

Hahaha, true, true. Just consider your Awesomes lucky that RAC/2s are not invented yet. But I suppose an appropriate number of Ultra Autocannons can fill their place on my Dire Wolf. Cost efficient? Neg. Purely devastating at all ranges? Aff!

I planned on starting this thread about the awesomeness of the Awesome, but someone already did. Ah well, I'll do it anyway! I actually textured this model and gave it a Davion Heavy Guard paint scheme.

I even made a low polygon version. Each model comes in at around 1,200 lil triangles.

We like to think of it as "contributing" versus hijacking.

@ HanaYuriko

Wow, I really , really love the work you did on the Awesome and it is one of my fav mechs. May I bother you with a request ?

I would love to make that model of yours a paper buildable model. See my topic here :

http://mwomercs.com/...d-a-paper-mech/

The Awesome you have created is right up the paper mech alley and not to high detail yet enough detail to make it look really good, and your texture is also top notch.

Please if you favorably consider it, please PM me. I would love to get my hands on your Low Poly Awesome and make a paper model from it.

Here is my MW4 Awesome I built a while back.

Oh yes, ever wondered what a Awesome would have been without the arm shields ........ a ZEUS !!!!!! :D (Purely looking at it from a cosmetics point of view)

Well, gramatically speaking, we can call those mechs awesome. We just can not call them: the Awesome,or an Awesome. Awesome is not a name of mech, that is simple adjective.

...just saying. :D
