Wave One Mechs

The bosses liked the look of my last renders and asked if they could get each mech individually that way. Might as well post them here too :)

What's your favorite mech of the lot?

Armor angle and tube angle are two separate things. All of its tubes are facing horizontal :)

Anthony Scroggins

I'm way too late to this party, but the only mech of all I've seen that I really wish could be tweaked is the Valkyrie. The bottom three tubes need to make anime-level turns not to eat dirt.

Mike

All of them are equally incredible.

Jarod DePastene

You've done it, you've made me go from loathing the gargoyle to loving it

Granted, I am completely biased, but, I have to go with the Mad Dog. I absolutely adore that 'Mech.

If you want, I can list them from first picture to last for you.

Malintus

Great work, i Really like the Mad Cat and Ice Ferret a lot, but all look very fine. The Man O War is sweet. What i don´t like is the Archer, he looks like a little fatty ;D

Andreas Hoffmann

Lovely. I am a little frustrated that I can't seem to find any indication of which art is which mech, though.

Stormcrow forearms/hands still bum me out. Evveerrything else is *Italian chef fingers kiss thing*

Yeah, I'm not sure about how I feel about the new gun placement yet. I sort of miss the barrels above the hands... I might mod it.

Also, the Executioner is my favorite. You fucking nailed that one.

I am ready for this. I missed out on all of the Unseen designs when I got into BattleTech. Thank you for this, because now I can actually have a collection of Unseen models I like (Project Phoenix was kind of a hit and a miss). Also... I have a new complaint. GIVE ME THE OSTROC AND OSTSOL.

Loving these. Stormcrow is a real favourite.

Martin Sweeney

Love the look of these, amazing work! Any idea whether you're still planning for the "10 Elemental poses across 2 different bases" goal or not?

Malintus

I don't want too, becuse I was such a big advocate for lasers on top of the forearms, but I keep coming back to the Stormcrow more than the others when I'm looking for fun so I must subconsciously like it most!

Raymond White

Most improved goes to the Viper and Ice Ferret!

They all look amazing, but the Stormcrow/Ryoken stands out to me as really nice, along with the Rifleman and Warhammer.

I love it, but why does the wasp look like it has a small laser on its head?

Robert Moore

I still really want to advocate for Kell's Missile Doors to be closed.

James Bixby

Probably the Phoenix Hawk for me, but that's partially because I've been wanting a nice looking Phoenix Hawk for decades.

wiski

Good point. Though I would love to see the Archer with missile bay doors closed, like the old sculpts, and Kell's mech seems like a good candidate.

The Pryde Mad Cat has different nose weapons and jump jets added. Blame Morgan Kell and Grayson Death for piloting stock mechs :P Different poses on stock (or near stock) mechs is also quite desirable for army builders. This pack has 3 heavies that fall into that category.

Anthony Scroggins

Most likely. While my team can very easily get 1 or 2 more packs ready and over to China before they finish processing these mechs, a mech pack also requires the packaging, pilot/mech cards, etc, generated and our graphic design teams are pushed to the limit just as much as my team is. Most of the graphics/design workload is in Wave One.

Anthony Scroggins

The Legendary MechWarriors Dire Wolf has a noticeably different weapons configuration, but the others appear identical to their regular versions, aside from a different pose. I wish there was more to set them apart and make them truly desirable.

I waiting on the Zeus.

Tyler Erickson

Very, very impressive. One question though, does that mean that the Clan Fire Star is unlikely to be included in Wave One. Based on some of the artwork you posted previously for those mechs, I was kind of the impression that the Warhawk, Novacat, Cougar, Kit Fox and Fire Moth were well into development.

I've always liked the Timberwolf and the Mad Dog, the Archer and Warhammer are growing on me but i'm really starting to like the Phoenix Hawk design not sure what it is it just has panache.

James Abbot-Cole

Loving the unloved I see.

Anthony Scroggins

Cool stuff, man! I really appreciate sharing these desings in detail with us here. For favorites...I really like the Elementals as they are really grand and diverse and you see there went a lot of work into them. For mechs - it´s the Ice Ferret. I always liked this one and it looks gorgeous. And the Viper really surprised me. The new sculpt is pretty cool - earlier i shunned the design but now will use it for sure in coming battles.

Henning Boessler

Adder, Mad Dog, Summoner, Timberwolf, and Shadowcat... still waiting on my Orion :)
