I posted a wip of it a while back on page 2. Check out the crazy guns he makes too.

I love the idea of a decent mech shooter (I can't believe there isn't a really great one out already),but I have to agree that the environments really made me take a second look. They are really awesome.

The even cooler part about that video is it is all run-time in game footage. No pre-rendered movies or cut scenes. They had one player as a spectator and just moved the camera around the level during the matches that were being played.

I can't wait for this to come out and see what its like.

That is awesome - though i wish he had used a straight edge to line up the rivets - on q model this size, you can really see any imperfection, and the rivets not lining up around the engine just kinda ruin it.  And it looks like hes working on another one in the last image - maybe F4 or F6?

Nice! That looks to be about the same scale based on the cabin. LOL! The swarm would eat that up!
