    Well I am not supposed to say"pirated copy" but I have paid for 6 copies in the course of using 3dsmax, and its very high, between 2700 and 3400 thousand dollars. And companies I have worked for have paid my liscences and fees. But if your going to learn it and use it for yourself. How ever you get it is fair game to me! Besides Autodesk makes more than enough money on all its software so,.....

    All of these examples Are just one or two ojects and adding new objects etc.... When you model, most of the time your playing around with shapes, negative space, balance, form and mass/volumes. These examples Are just like jigsaw puzzles. one piece added to the next! Through conceptualizing your images wether in 3d or 2d drawings, its same principal. As you get better at it you become a better illustrator,modeler, painter what ever. You lvl up your experience and improve the way you do things!

    Actually your not far off! That was a Command Mobile Station. Pad for a helo/hover vehicle, one rail-canon and 2 large long-range vector canons! Considering the way MWO is set up, those Mech vehicles are as big or bigger than the mech your refering to also know as the H109 Herculon. Herculon is what it is, Mobile command and behind the lines vehicle.

    You mean as big as this? Casue anything bigger would be something like a Macross SDF.

    If you're still taking requests, I'd love to see my favorite military vehicle of all time turned to a mech. :D

    ok Chattah, developing the A10 into a mech!
    After some sketches and a few drawings,decided to go this way! The turbo fan emgines are so well noticeable that you could make them into Rocket-Salvos so I decided to drop them down and encorporate into the hull design! keeping the nose canon, but making it a rotary auto -grenade/or incindary canon. But this is where I am.

    Very sexy so far...

    I would round out that canopy/cockpit area a little bit. Make it a little more smoooooooooooooth my good man! The difference between a 10 year single malt and a 15 year single malt, ya know?

    I agree, keep this mech Smooth, like an AMX40. Also, use the wings to hold the weapons, not the body. I think that will keep it smooth.

    also, I would love to see the concept of an Bolt Action Cannon. Something that has a bolt, an internal magazine, but can be automatically loaded. Something about the size of an AC2 or slightly smaller.

    If you use the wings to hold the guns, you are gonna recreate the champion!

    Since the twin engines are such a dominant feature of the A10 design, my thoughts would be to emphasize them a bit more as well. Possibly just scale them up a bit.

    However, Ironchoir is the artist. So, I'll shut up. :D
