Nicer render, showing the details a bit better. Click to enlarge. More when I have it scripted and in-game...

I don't like the design too much, if it's actually how I'm interpreting it as.

Could I see a render from the back?

Argh · Post by **Argh** » 28 May 2008, 05:13

Why a render of the rear view? What do you want to see? Sorry, that just seems like an odd request...

Snipawolf · Post by **Snipawolf** » 28 May 2008, 05:18

It's just the part between the shoulder and cockpit that looks weird. Then again, I don't think I'd be able to see that part from behind anyways ;_;

I'll do one from the top, so you can see a bit better, then. Basically, it has an upper section coming out of the main body that holds the missile launchers up, which I did mainly to restore a visual sense of balance to the design. Here's a side view:

Aahh, I see. Thanks.

The first render looks a bit like a UEF Titan from Supreme Commander but with launchers...

I like it.

Don't forget that the UEF titan used to have launchers in very early builds of supcom...

Considering that these units are factory fresh why's the metal so rusty? Using plain gunmetal instead of rust probably would've worked better...

Took me a moment to recognize the model

I'll pull up a picture of what it used to look like, hold on...

...Can't find it. It's probably one of those I had to get rid of to get hard drive space. I did find this though!

Wow, is it me or do models just get exponentially better on here week by week? In reference to Argh's mech post.

One criticism though - the side view makes it look off balance to the back, as if it'd constantly be straining not to topple backwards due to the highly off centre placement of the missile launchers.

I'm off on holiday for a month or so. Hope Pure will be around when I get back :)

*nods* That's why the original had a big head (though it didn't have the big back missile launchers)

I really like it, but saying "it looks like X" is kinda pointless, since about six million videogames and other sources have identical-looking mechs with that same structure. Earliest example I can think of is the Mad Cat from Battletech, but I'm sure there are earlier ones.

Guessmyname · Post by **Guessmyname** » 28 May 2008, 15:28

The fact that the original was loosely based on the madcat probably doesn't help

"Good artist copy great artist steal" (picasso) + "The secret to originality is hiding your sources" (einstein)

Even I made a mech that looks EXACTLY like that but crappier and untextured:

tell me if you want the animation for it, might work

1. The original design was changed substantially to avoid being a little too close to a certain Wizkids property

2. I think it's interesting that the design of the calves makes that connection for people, even though very little else substantially resembles that design at this point.
