"This is Hammer 4 to Command. I have one enemy walker 150 mike from my position, am requesting strike danger close."

"Copy that Hammer 4, we have you on overhead. Tasking two fast movers to you, callsign 'Flash'. We need you to mark the target."

"Copy that Command, marking target."

"Hammer 4 this is Flash, we have your signal. ETA 30 seconds...best get your heads down boys."

Its great to finally see some awesome dynamic works from you, because theyve been static ones for so long. Keep practicing and do more DYNAMICS!!!

This has a very real feel to it - ninety percent of being in combat is looking over, seeing something like this, and being like "Oh, shit - we're in a firefight." You nailed that vibe perfectly.

first of all
lighting, color and frame wise this is truly great i think
its a joy to look at the pic

then
i love pyros comment
i think qwerty has good ideas
and generally you could thicken all those typically digitally painted semi-transparent structures/textures; that would make it less digital appearing, and harder to differnciate from photo (which i think is the goal of most realistic/non-abstract digittal paintings)

cheers mate

Can i give it a comical dialogue?:
gunner: "Keep firing! we need to hold the line!"
Pilot: "Line? were a 3 man mech, and the co-pilot is sleeping."
Co-pilot: "Nope, whose manning the machine gun?"
Gunner: "...me?"
Co-pilot: "No..the big one."
Gunner: "...we have a bigger gun than this one?"
Co-pilot: "What is that loud noise outside..."
Gunner: "..."
Co-pilot: "Yeah...my trigger happy, joystick loving, right, fapping, ****ing hand..."
Pilot: "...then what was that snoring?"
Co-pilot: "Snoring?"

The overall look and feel of this is awesome.
As for the help, maybe some suggestions:

Add some friendly units falling back or even pushing forward, maybe an explosion or two in the background.

Hi, not sure what help you are after so i thought I'd offer a few suggestions. I'm doing a not-dissimilar work atm myself.
First off, great mech design, environment and framing.
To help finish it I'd maybe add some junk on the floor pointing in the direction of the mech as there is a fair amount of
empty sand between us and the mech and the junk could lead the eye in to it. Bullet ricochets could be seen sparking off it too adding to the atmosphere of danger.
I would also darken the area behind the muzzle flashes to really highlight them. You have suggested rounds zipping away from the mech with brush strokes, perhaps this could be made stronger by suggesting tracer rounds which show up brighter often with a red tint.
For the rest I think all is needed is a little time on rendering the highlights and shadows emphasizing the mech.
Please don't think I don't like this piece - I do, just wanting to help a fellow artist!

Nice pic. The feet of that Mech kinda looks like 1 of the feet off from Chrome Hounds on Xbox 360, and the turrent chassis kinda looks like the Mecha off from BattleField: 2142 The PC game. Which I really like that game a lot. }: ) But nicely done Rene. 10/10

Really interesting work. Lone Mech in a desert fight.

Has that "Made the wrong turn and got lost from her convoy."

Great contrast and use of your colors. What do you need help with?

Not bad, I'm really loving the background and what looks like a desert setting. What kind of help do you want anyways?
