Warhawk Concept Sketch
Added 2019-07-30 23:31:14 +0000 UTCTime for another iconic big boy. One I've drawn before, and I played heavily in mwo for it's mobility, relative compactness (compared to a Dire Whale or Kodiak barn door), slapping a pair of UAC10's on it.
Dire legs come in free, and I reused the upper arms, some of the lower arms.
Torso will likely get some overall proportion adjustments, but I think the details are there. Don't quite have it approved yet though, as upper management is quite tied up between the KS and GenCon.
Enjoy? I'm sure some won't enjoy the mw4/mwo style cockpit glass slope.

The MW4 Warhawk had a really cool looking barrel "brace" at the end of the arms - It is a superbly cool look. And, frankly, makes it a bit more believable - that is where so much of the cool factor for BT comes in for me, is a lot of the mechs look like weapons of war, not BIG STOMPY ROBITS
2019-10-16 18:56:15 +0000 UTCLove it, especially the LRM10. I didn't care for how, in MWO, it sat under the left arm. I love the A variant, with 2 LPL/2 ER PPCs. And, when I'm not running stock only designs, dropping the PPCs and LRMs for 4 LPLs and a couple more DHS is.....murderous....

2019-09-01 06:19:46 +0000 UTCLove it!! This is a fantastic assault mech for my Jade Falcons and has been one of my favorite mechs to pilot in the video games starting with MW2. I think the redesign really captured the sturdiness and ominous "bully on the block" attitude.

2019-07-31 13:33:29 +0000 UTCAre the barrels cross-braced, or are those lines between them on the right arm just from copy/pasting the left?

2019-07-31 12:34:28 +0000 UTCnot sold on the cockpit glass. everything else looks great.

2019-07-31 06:48:04 +0000 UTCI like the Look. Warhawk always Iconic like the Direwolf
2019-07-31 04:45:02 +0000 UTCThe range I've set is the lower detail GoAC mechs are the lowest allowed while our already finished Clan mechs are the top end. I don't want it becoming a runaway train of detail, but we will be going more detailed than what GoAC had on average.
Anthony Scroggins
2019-07-31 04:09:36 +0000 UTCJust to be sure, all the lines are going to fade into designs like the AGoAC box set minis, right? I really would like for the art to stay away from the incessant, infinite piles of armor plates on MWO designs personally.

2019-07-31 04:05:36 +0000 UTCI’m not familiar with the MWO/MW4 versions, but this cockpit style makes the mech look smaller than it is while the airliner-style cockpits on some of the recent light clan mech concepts make them look like they belong to a heavier class.

2019-07-31 03:13:06 +0000 UTCIm loving all the new designs so far and im just waiting for the finshed crusader and guillotine so much hype for this my wallet is screaming at me . as for this beast i like it alot as for the lrm posistion well when i lose that arm i havnt lost my lrm so lose win in this case :P keep it up you cant BOG THE SCROG!
2019-07-31 02:49:02 +0000 UTCI like it, but it feels like it's missing something. Don't know what, though.
2019-07-31 01:59:30 +0000 UTCI meant the record sheet shows the LRM in the arm. That has been ignored for all the models prior to MWO, but I thought this round of resculpts was striving to more accurately reflect loadouts.
Ryan Voigt
2019-07-31 01:38:56 +0000 UTCI really like the look of the more slab flat top in mw4 and the forward LRM is interesting. I wanted to deliberately not copy the Dire positioning so i ran with it.
Anthony Scroggins
2019-07-31 01:11:53 +0000 UTCSo you kept the thing they broke (cockpit slant) and reversed the thing MWO fixed (LRM placement)? :p
Ryan Voigt
2019-07-31 00:37:13 +0000 UTCYup, cockpit is a-okay. I love me a bit of Masakari. 4 Clan ERPPC's and a targeting comp is not something to be messed with lightly in a standoff fight!

2019-07-31 00:06:50 +0000 UTCYES!

2019-07-30 23:54:20 +0000 UTCThis looks fantastic, and I love the cockpit glass, looks awesome!!!

2019-07-30 23:51:07 +0000 UTCJust about perfect.
