Description

Commissioned battletech mech illustration.

At it's core, a black knight. But some tweaks and twists, and a bunch of quirks input, and you get a facelift of an old favorite.

Kamvas 22pro and PS

The barest lines of the original Black Knight are there, but had you not said that's what it was, I woulda probably assumed it was a adjacent design. This is badass dude!

Any chance you can convince CGL to make the Kids Friendly version into a plastic mini? Maybe as a clan second line mech re-imaged as a 85t assault mech produced by the AML (3152) for the mercenary market?

I actually prefer the "Kids friendly" version, the other one looks too Necron for my taste.

From the quest this is comissioned for, this is meant to be our Pale Rider, the Pale Horse of Death, the Black Knight but scarier inspired by the founder of our nation.

You got something against metal death robots, Heretic?

Less that, itΒ΄s more that i donΒ΄t like the idea of WH40k stuff in BattleTech and vis versa. These two franchises have quite a few similarities, but they also have fundamental incompatibilities.

Nah, but the Apocalypse Series is made with very similar feelings to the Atlas but with the idea of creating the most hyper specced omnimechs to counter the clans in their own games

So a mech with psychological warfare included in the design, looking terrifying?

Aff, these things have Every Weapon Quirk that exists in the game on all of their weapons, they have the Stalker's combat computer quirk so they run WAY cooler than their weapons should be, and our QM has let us make a Quirk based TC for a +2 to shooting ontop of accurate, doesn't stack with TC, but the result is anyone who pilots one of these is an elite mechwarrior who'll look a tier even better because of how hyper specced these things are, so scary mechs that perform scary

I strongly suspect their price tag is scary as well... ^^;

About 5 to 6 million c-bills more than their clan contemporaries yes.
