Hey Marco, looks pretty cool. I’m not much of a mech person, but it seems a little “unfinished”? For the size of the chassis, and considering it’s got a dual cockpit, the “body” part seems very undersize. Mostly it just seems to be missing much more and larger weaponry, and maybe a radar or something. Since it’s a “heavy assault” mech, I’m wondering where are the weapons to assault with. It seems to need some big guns or probably some large missile turrets?

I thought of a mech for fast attack. That’s the reason I kept the body rather small.
I wouldn’t call a 6” rotary cannon a small weapon. But I’m unsatisfied with the missile turret. I don’t think it really fits the rest.

Maybe I should rebuilt the side beams which carry the weaponery. To get more width onto the body. Could be used to store amunition. I also think of replacing the missile turret with a rail gun or two.

   BTW, the “classic space” colour scheme is great! ;

Thank you, but I didn’t know it was “classic space”, I only choose it for bick availability. Nevertheless I’m glad you like it!
