Last May I posted a gray and black mech that had some cool points, but the
color scheme was really fragmented, as you can see.
Recently I was about to scrap it and sort it when I decided to see if I could
improve the color scheme. I did everything I could in black, but there were
some parts in the cockpit and missile launchers that I didn’t have in black,
so I left them in gray, but grouped the colors together. I was also
disappointed with the original foot design, so I re-did the feet and a few
other details, and this is the final product.
I decided to post it because I think it shows what you can accomplish with
better color grouping.

This is a wonderful improvement Kyle!
I just love the new, cold, hard look of the Widowmaker now. It’s almost like and
Iron Reich mecha, but even more evil. :-)
The rounded missile launcher boxes still bother me. I’ve mentioned this to you
before; your missile boxes give the impression that the rear-ends of the
missiles inside are curved or that that space is useless. Perceptively, this
messes with my mind, but then again, it’s probably just me. ;-)
Great job once again! Keep it up.
