This image is being sold as a banner on eBay: www.ebay.com/itm/253948224475

If that's kosher, then cool, but I thought I'd mention it just in case it was unauthorized.

Nice image

BTW, what is that other 'Mech back there with Stalker #2?

Do you really think humvees will be around in a thousand years, or even a hundred years? Given that they're being phased out ... like now, perhaps that dinky little hummer was the worst thing to add to this piece as it's already making it seem horribly dated!

It is, however, quite a nice piece of work, but I fear that your talent will be lost on most DA viewers and viewers in general where 1024/768 is a resolution most artistically oriented (or even gamers) folks were running back in 1996 or so. Do you have the original file you made this with? If so, scale it up 10X and see how it looks and re-upload that in place of this so people can actually see the effort you put in. On my screen this entire image is probably 3 inches by 4 inches maybe? So a lot of the quality is lost in small file size.

Regardless, it's wonderful seeing one of my favorite mechs depicted, so I'm biased to love it by default.

Haha, Thanks?

Not quite 1996, but I rendered this in 2005, that was my screen resolution at the time. I typically only ever rendered to my screen resolution. Hence why the images get larger over time.

2 Stalkers, and the other mech I can't quite get a good visual on owing to the skil and the color of the ground in conjunction with the fact that it's in the background.

Definitely a good pic.

Now we know where they manufacture the beasts. I like the mechs renderings. If only Microsoft had gotten their rears in gear, the game could have looked that good. It would have been better if the lead one was standing on the remains of a Swiftwind or some other small vehicle stupid enough to tick it off.

The overall detail is amazing, due to your use of textures and the details you have put in them.

If possible at this late stage, I'd sugest blurring the background just slightly. The way that the background is now, it takes the viewers eye too much away from the primary mech.

The use of color also is nice, and makes my mouth dry imagining the desert where it exists.


Great work overall. I am glad to find a good mech artist on Deviantart.

Not very fancy?
Since when was battletech supposed to be like that?
Hard, sharp, gritty and realistic.
It's what we want, and what you have provided.

Some great artists' work put together in a great looking piece.
Only the top left of the sky looks a bit iffy.

Oh yea!! I have been waiting for something form you!! Cool render man!! Thos stalkers look real good. Are those the ones out of the MEKTEK PAK? If soo you made them look sweet. I like that building and the way it has the metallic shine to it. Oh and those anti aircraft guns on the building look very cool.

Yes, this is the "high polly" version of the ingame model.

Though this version of it is "broken", but I thought it worked ok for this pic.

Good work. I like the angle u decided to render from, it shows the massive size of the 'mech very well (expecially compared to the apc next to it.) A question though, the first 'mech on the right, is that the Tenchi custom? also what is that in the air on the top left, aerotech? If it is a suggestion might be to have the vapor trails fade out before the horizon. Nice nonetheless .

WhiteFeatherMoon In reply to TerratoX1 [2005-01-24 22:52:00 +0000 UTC]

Yes and Yes. You're probably right. The chemtrail should diffuse and fade out... but I'm too lazy for that. =-)

Very nice. I love the man eye view to the stalker. Also the Turrets blend really well with the walls, and the Mechs have AMAZING cammos
