My newest Battletech work for Catalyst Game Labs, an interior illustration for Liberation of Terra II.
Two Starslayers hunt down a Cestus in the city streets of Singapore as the Star Leagues 250th Battlemech Division pushes out the 19th Amaris Dragoons.

If I had more time for this assignment I would have liked to do a more extensive redesign on the mechs, especially the Cestus, but time was short. I chose mechs that deserved a bit of spotlight and while derpy could be easily fixed. Starslayers are pretty cool when you chop of their silly armpit thighs and balance their torso.

Starslayer is an awesome mech, I have two of those bad boys in my mercenary company. And I never realised the Cestus was a Starleague design.

They're pretty cool mechs when you remove some of the derp :D

When I was reading the book, I thought to myself: "I know the style!" Well done!...as always. The book is very interesting and worth a recommendation. Especially the topic about the European Theatre landings.
Keep it on! And I hope we are going to see more of your work in CGL books. :D

I am impressed with your black/white/shades of grey work. You did a fine job of tweaking the Starslayer, and the scene is one of action without being too busy. Furthermore, I have been to Singapore many times and those buildings are spot-on! Good work, Anthony.

The lack of busyness is in part due to my tight time schedule. If I had more time I would have liked to detail the city more.

Great choice! The Cestus surely deserved some more spotlight and the Starslayer too. Looking great, especially in some action.

I really like the more realistic feel; a good take on updating the BattleTech aesthetic.
