Solaris VII Mechwarrior
Added 2019-06-06 04:24:40 +0000 UTCYou guys don't make this easy, 80 voters and the final count within 2 votes haha.
Here's my envisioning of an assignment to show what a well equipped Solaris mech jock might look like. Deep sponsor pockets, experimental equipment tested in arena battles.
She's got a high tech cooling suit that covers most of her body with overkill coolant tubing.
Gave her Maori/pacific styling as a call to my birth country. I've also noticed female Maori characters are almost non existent in games, so there's a checked box too.
Ye like?

Stunning work!

2019-06-11 18:39:25 +0000 UTCI'm really excited to see modern MechWarrior art that makes them feel less cartoony. Looks fantastic!

2019-06-07 00:55:28 +0000 UTCI think a loose shirt and shorts still have a place, but well equipped units will have more than just a chest cooling rig.

2019-06-06 17:38:36 +0000 UTCUndefined Succession Wars.
Anthony Scroggins
2019-06-06 17:38:24 +0000 UTCNot until after the art was done was I told it's succession wars, but this would be valid any time as the equipment is merely well made, rather than rare technology. A non mass production suit. I wanted to show a headset type neurohelm that you'd find in the Dark Age era, but was told to not be specific there.

2019-06-06 17:38:08 +0000 UTCHahaha, no combat heels here.
Anthony Scroggins
2019-06-06 17:35:02 +0000 UTCThank you.

2019-06-06 17:34:32 +0000 UTCI think the issue is early on there was a bunch, and since then there's always been art needs for so much new content they rarely rehashed non-mech designs. This was definitely needed.
Anthony Scroggins
2019-06-06 17:34:20 +0000 UTCYeah I'd imagine some teched out bleeding edge heavy mech.
Anthony Scroggins
2019-06-06 17:33:03 +0000 UTCNailed it. Let me be the first to say I love the cooling suit, and don't care if it means an end to "Tube-top and shorts".

2019-06-06 13:54:25 +0000 UTCSo mech does she ride?
Robert Moore
2019-06-06 13:54:13 +0000 UTCIt is Solaris VII, I think Mr. Scroggins got turned around in the title.
2019-06-06 13:51:20 +0000 UTCWhat (battletech) year are we in?

2019-06-06 13:13:02 +0000 UTCWhat era are you thinking that would be?

2019-06-06 12:32:44 +0000 UTCI always thought the arena world was named Solaris VII but even though I'm off by four planets: this looks pretty realistic to my imagination of the BT universe.
Peter Holthaus
2019-06-06 12:18:48 +0000 UTCNailed it. +1 for portraying a hero in sensible shoes as well.
2019-06-06 11:59:05 +0000 UTCAbsolutely great piece of art!

2019-06-06 05:39:33 +0000 UTCLooks like I needed to smoke you out with non-robots haha.

2019-06-06 04:54:15 +0000 UTCSteve's MREs are my most favorite field ration.
2019-06-06 04:34:01 +0000 UTCThat's really cool! I personally think that there's not nearly as much art of pilots and stuff in Battletech as there should be.
2019-06-06 04:31:52 +0000 UTCLove it. There's a nice and balanced mix of sponsorship, tech and personality with the tattoos and flight jacket. This gal must pilot a MASC energyboat with TSM for a cooling suit *that* fancy!
