Mecha Front - Lynx

Published:

Description

This is one of the earlier designs I worked on in the initial sketching stages, but my most recent color piece as I work my way through the list of missing art. After doing the batch of lineart for battletech I tried applying my inking technique to the sketching phase of this piece. The look is a little different and not a whole lot faster, but it comes out very crisp. Compare to the NorAm Raptor, which was only my 2nd color piece for mecha front.

The NorAm Lynx medium mech is a standard trooper, with all around armor, firepower, and mobility. It's main load out is 4 auto cannons, with alternates mixing in gatling guns, guided missiles, and rail guns.

To be honest the window placement seems random and unhelpful. If it at least were poiting somewhat towards the ground the mecha is walking over it would serve as backup solution for whatever helmets/VR/HUD display your pilots are using... but this? Are they supposed to navigate using stars? Any possible pilot position in that cockpit would mean they would only see sky through those slits... For that little payoff, why risk the structural weakness of windows at all?

Other than that minor detail though this is a solid design and has a nice, realistic feeling.
