Welcome to the HeavyMetalPro Forums

This past week was hectic..................... I need a rest !!!

So its Friday night and I'm just relaxing at my workbench with nothing in particular to do.

I know, lets create something.............. first stop is the MW : DA box. I consider any and all of these toys elegible for slicing and dicing. I don't even bother committing the various names to memory.

Second stop is the weapons bins for potential armaments for this custom.

I spend a relaxing evening mixing and matching - slicing and dicing. Look what pops out.

A quickie freeform paintjob not restricted to any faction followed. I put on a sealer this morning and a very light dullcoat to kill some of the shine.

I really enjoy the creation aspect, I guess thats why my painting skills lag so far behind.

Now all it needs is a name and stat sheet. Anyone wanna take a crack at it.

Have you given any thought to what weight class or the kinds of weapons it would carry? Your piecing together of this mech is very nice and speaking from someone whose paint jobs are really horrible...this mech is painted very nicely. Off hand, I would call it a Carakiller or Dragonhawk or a Slickribbon.

Looks like a PPC with capaciter in the right arm.

A couple small ACs of some kind. RACs, LB-Xs, Ultra, or standards.

And a couple SRM-4 racks, one on each shoulder.

I'd say around 50 to 60 tons, a good 6-9 or so movement as a basic guess.

Somehow strikes me as a Jade Falcon mech. So i named it apropriatly, and even Figured out who the new testpilot should be... None other than the great "Mechwarrior Joanna" of the book series of the same name.

If anyone could put this hulk through it's paces, she could have.

Hey, CSA and others,

Over at LotB where I spend most of my time, I'm offering 2 plastic minis free of charge for the best design that I choose.

ChainSA......... I think this could be in the running. Go on over and look for this same post in the LotB design thread.

Hello, the "contest is almost over.
Please do not submit anymore stats.

Thanks to you Guys that went over to LotB

Wow, i come back from a hiatus and see i was in a contest i presumably did not win.

I feel just like i normaly do on opening a Coke and seeing "please try again" which normaly makes me wonder if they meant the contest, or opening the coke...

"No No No you idiot, you opened it ALL WRONG"
