Isn't the assault rifle a standard choice throughout history? Or did I got that wrong?
The intended timeframe for this piece is around 3058 - 3060...

Obviously I'm not a CC specialist, can you give me a more suitable example, just for the archives, in case I use CC units again...

As far as the rifle goes, it's a mistake on my part as I've guessed a 3070+ time frame (as the time you're using is the time of Capellan-St.Ives War, so I jumped ahead using the Davion BAs as a reference guide).

The tactics critic is done through the fact that you have a Raven sticking with the main force, which is definitely not the way anyone would use it, plus Ravens were already replaced with Men Shens, assaults would be more along the lines of Yu Huangs/ Emperors as Atlases and other oldies were largely left behind in the spirit of Chinese rebirth. McCarron's being the premiere propaganda poster boys, since they got to become citizens because of their service as mercs would definitely mean they'd be outfitted with the latest stuff in that regard. And lastly, 2nd McCarron doesn't have much in the sense of conventional infantry. The only standard infantry battalion they have is an occupational force and those are urban fighters backed by heavy armor.

As I said, though, these don't hamper the picture's awesomeness in any way (and, let's face it, where would you get proper mechs and BA from, anyway?).

Thx for the rundown, good to know...

@tactics critic - ah I see, really interesting how people see the situation depicted...
My thought was, that the poor Raven fail-scouted into the FedSuns and then followed shortly after by the main force...

@proper mechs - technically I could go for the liao-esque mechs and make some reference from scratch, but that would be way too time intense for fanart...

Spooky777 - Inspiring me to do my "art" since January 2013

[SpOoKy777]

Hey guys...

I'm working on a huge scene (24 mechs involved ) right now...I predict completion around early january...

As much as I love to do nothing else but free fanart, unfortunately I have to go back to a bread and butter job in the next few months until I find a good job opportunity in something art related...

In a nutshell...less frequent releases, but I'll keep it up...

you talk to Shimmering Sword? He put out a call fo rall artists earlier last month, probabyl not too late to get added to the list. Don't see how you couldn't get some paying work with your skills.

[SpOoKy777]

Thx, Bishop for pointing that out...

I sent applications to all the major boardgame/tabletop/rpg studios (catalyst,fantasy flight etc.) and PGI, a couple of months ago...only negative replies so far...PGI included...

Basically I have two issues atm...I don't do much original/from scratch work, thats a thing hiring-managers are looking for...I can't really proof that I'm useful in that area...

Second thing...a relocation for a job is complicated and living in germany where the gaming industry is in an infant state, doesn't make it easier...


Maybe I step into Shimmerings Swords's footsteps and try to get a kickstarter book project going...an idea is floating around for some time now...

Time will tell...


Edit:

That might help, Heffay...

In the meantime, we can apparently summon more SpOoKy777 artwork by looking in the mirror and saying 3 times:

"SpOoKy777 SpOoKy777 SpOoKy777!"

...

Let's see if it works.

Yeah,im standing already infront of a mirror
