Using the PC gamer camo pattern.

A decal of a sword would look pretty cool

[Vactus]

This is my Iron Man CMD-2D, I also have a variant that is colored like the actual Iron Man suit.

is the davion's official color really red white and blue? aka american flag?

[chewie]

No

Davion gaurd units go for that as parade colours.

Go check out camospecs.com and you'll see.

Base davion colours are Green, but cna vary depending on area. Draconis march units favour Reds.

No it is the Australia, Cambodia, Chile, Costa Rica, Cuba, Croatia, Czech Republic, Dominican Republic, France, Iceland, Laos, Liberia, Netherland, New Zealand, North Korea, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Russia, Slovakia, Taiwan, Thailand, United Kingdom Flag, United States Flag. Missing a few but you should get the point.

The Federated Suns is more UK related than anything. If you want supposed democracy go Free Worlds League. Lyran Commonwealth/Alliance = German, Draconis Combine = Japanese, Capellan Confederation = Chinese. All have a mix of nationalities, but those are the main themes.

My take on the 41st Avalon Hussars' colors. Though a lack of funding has me piloting some salvaged Catapult, it's not stopping me from keeping the colors!

[daehawk]

There is no way to repaint my Founder hunchback 4G is there? Cause if there is I cant find it after working in the mechlab for an hour.

Not yet

Apparently they will be allowing painting of Hero mechs eventually, but beyond changing the stripe colour, its not possible to paint the Founders yet.

Last night I noticed all three colors for the Founder's Jenner are now selectable. I didn't check whether patterns could be applied.

[Benjamin Davion]

I've been running Obsidian Black and Ox Blood on all of my mechs and loving it. Been considering painting a few of my mechs in 1st Fed Suns Armored Cavalry colors as well, since I love the white-and-green.


All the same, I've been wondering about militia colors. I read above about militia units in the Draconis March using a certain color set. So I've been wondering, since I consider Achernar my 'home', is there any canon regarding the colors used by the Achernar militia?

EDIT: Nevermind. Found it. Capellan March Militia uses dark green and red, so Achernar Militia likely would as well. =P

The colors in the House insignia (red/orange and yellow) are not used on mechs like in your designs, to my knowledge. Please refer to the link I posted previously to Camo Specs' gallery.

Wrong

My VTR-9K sports this deco:


Maybe a bit too muted to be parade colors but I like it. If needed, consider it like the mech was forced into battle too soon for them to swap out camos beforehand.

It also has a Davion hologram on the dash and when I get my Project Phoenix medallions I'll likely have a Davion Medallion hanging in the cockpit as well.

[Oppi]

What would you guys consider the best choice for the "Davion Green" many canon units seem to employ on major parts of their mechs ?

Is anybody else sad about the fact that you can't paint the Dragonslayer's stripes in three different colours ?

[chewie]

Basic davion green?

verona or Hunter Green or Zelenod perhaps?

[Oppi]

Which one would you prefer as a Kathil Uhlans themed paintjob ("black with gold highlights" according to lore) ?

[wickwire]

if you want to match the davion logo u need Caput Mortuum and K'an
