Classic Biggest Gun!


  Well, no Inner Sphere lance is complete without the biggest gun you can mount on a 'mech, and the most famous of that is the AC/20.  There are many tanks and a few non-assault 'mechs with it, but the infamous silhouette of the Hunchback is the most obvious display of that huge gun.  And House Steiner won't be without one.  

  If you followed the last post, you'll already know how I did the blue.  So this post starts off from there with the only real detail being the 1/3 white on the right side (from the 'mechwarrior's PoV) and the huge gun.  As before, everything here is basic techniques, so I'll just show pics with the colours that I used.  



  After dealing the the blue-and-white colour-scheme, I then had to move on to the head/cockpit.  The Hunchback is weird becuase it's not the typical glasas canopy or ballistic-proof windshield, but instead a golden metallic grill.  With the copper-transformers on his arm and back (very low-tech based on my paint-scheme), this made things a tad confusing.  So I had to experiment a bit to figure out how to make the two look different and keep the attention on the head as all other 'mechs.  


  Once all the basic stuff is done, it's time to paint the whole purpose of this mech- the AC/20! 




THE gun of guns...



"Get close- I dare ya!"

  And that's it!  I'm not halfway done with a 'lance', and I'm thinking the next 'mech will have to be a Zeus- the mascot of the Lyran Commonwealth.  Between the Atlas and the Hunchback, I have some big guns and plan to keep that theme going...

Happy  Hobbying!
