Spent a few hours in photoshop with the 3067 TRO cover art in order to paint the SGT-8R Sagittaire (my favorite mech) in a better color scheme and with a custom configuration I like to roll with in megamek. Really wish for the day I can pilot this in MWO....

Man, I would have picked up this book years ago if it looked this sharp. Amazing what a few changes in coloring and shading can do.

Haha, thanks! Regardless of the less than stellar cover this one came with, you really should pick up this TRO. It has some of the best mech art within its pages. I personally think it's better than Project Phoenix, artistically speaking.

P.S.- that's a pretty badass sig you got there Steel Raven.

Yeah that's exactly why I was sad to see MWO trying to do a day by day advancing of the timeline. All of the best (artistically speaking at least) designs and coolest tech wont even see the light of day.
