Thanks. For next week I'll try to finish a sketch of one of my favourite mechs, in a battletech interpretation of one of my favourite cartoons. Have some of the line work for it done already but a few hours of work yet to go.

Supposed to be the 8T

With 2 LRM-15s split between each torso and a LL in each arm.  Though looking at it now, it seems the Left Arm should retain the hand actuator so the Large Laser should have been under-slung or hand-held I suppose. Oh well not too far off. I always manage to mess SOMETHING up.

The Wolverine also is supposed to be the 6K with a LL, ML and SL in the RA.

Thanks. I had always misinterpreted this variant it seems.

Well, odds are you're just thinking of another variant
The 8Q has 3 PPCs, 1 SL
The 8T has 2 LRM-15s, 2 LLs and 1 SL
The 8R has 2 LRM-15s, 1 LL and 1 SL
The 8V has 1 LRM-15, 1 PPC, 1 LL and 1 SL

I suspect 99% of the Awesomes that hit the field are the 8Q and some players have never even played with the LL and LRM totting variants.

Some new artwork represents the 11R, which is much like the 8R, which is why I tried to represent the 8T.
