Sketching and came up with this
« on: January 05, 2013, 06:17:18 AM »



I am not sure if I want to call it a Rifleman attempt, it just came out.  But being as it kinda has that RFL thing going on minus the big dish up top, I kind of like it.  What does everyone think of the sketch in general?  I know I need to refine it/clean it up, but so far I am kind of liking it.

Okay, worked on it just a little bit.  Oh, sorry these are big, any ideas on how to resize them in post?

Keep on it shwagpo you have an interesting little Mech developing. Unfortunately my art program knowledge is old school and extremely limited. Can't wait to see more.

Iteration 3.  Not sure if I like the 2nd pic's head/center torso better or not.

It's like part Gladiator, Rifleman, Hammerhands and Thug. Neat.

I think it's turning out fairly well.  For a random sketch it sure got me drawing.

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

I have no clue what I am going to do for stats for this beast.  She's not done being developed yet, I just ran out of time at present to work on her.  I am liking some parts and disliking others, though I am hesitant to make any more sweeping changes.  I like the head, I just don't know if I like it here, and the torso is turning out to be way more like a breastplate than I had imagined.  Reworking sections at this point is less work than it would appear because I am doing it digital, but more work then I'd lie to add at this moment.

When it comes to stats, it looks like. Heavy to me.  It's got a very solid foundation and legs built for kicking.  Also, it's got big guns, and the potential for more, but what are the guns?  I thought the load out looked like a standard Rifleman, two long barrel auto cannon and under slung large lasers, with a medium in each side torso.  Those were more of a happenstance, but they can all be replaced while keepin the look.  I was thinking ultra 5s if possible, but I do not know.

I am not even sure if this thing looks clan or is.  It doesn't look omni, thanks to its arms unless this config is incredibly common.  This could, again, be changed.  I like the idea of a fire support mech(obviously) late Fwl or Capellan.  If Capellan, I'd like to add jump jets.  Being as I don't currently have a designer and construction rules are in books at home(where I won't be til Wednesday), anyone wanna take some cracks at giving her stats?  I like the two identicle main guns, but honestly you could call it a light and make those over over and unders mediums and small lasers for All the difference it makes, lol.  Just look at the pic, get some ideas, and tell me a out them here.  If we need more equipment, the torso is beggin to get reworked IMHO.  Have fun:)
