Gotcha didn't I? This is my CHI-85-MAAFSW Trebuchet painted and named in Ozy's style. This is my very first OM reference for my current college quarter to be submitted as a grade. The first last quarter was my "Serenity Vs. The Bomb" painting I made long ago. I'm currently painting this however it has already been graded.

Now, the story behind this mech is that it is the very first Trebuchet ever built and has been in service for 150 years. It is scratched, damaged, hurt, mangled, and looked down upon, however it still completes its role with honor and glory. Somewhat like Ozy LOL, so I gave it the name Ozymandias and made it look like Ozy.

Is that a Mechwarrior or something like that? :?:

Uh, no. It is an original creation. Sure the overall style is a western mech style reminiscent of mechwarrior but it is NOT based of it. In fact the mechs I have designed are pushing the boundary between eastern and western mechs because my stuff can do some pretty interesting things.

Well Then, Nice Craftmanship! 8)

I can see that a lot of blood, sweat, and glaze went into making that figure! :-P

No glaze yet. The paint is not done yet and applying the clear glaze spray now would kill it. If you are thinking strangely, this thing is made of WOOD, not clay.

It looks great Donnie! I reckon it'd fit in perfectly at a wargames convention. If I might make a suggestion though; needs more guns.

Omg, you must be kidding! This is an artillery mech, it launches a gigantic missile barrage. In CNC Generals, I added a 3d version of this mech in that launches a barrage of 30 missiles that do 10 damage each. Trust me, it has enough guns.

Oh wait, are they the black boxy things on the back? I thought they were something else.

The shoulders and rear racks are the missiles. They are loaded to the inch with scatter dumb shot missiles, meaning they shoot, they fall, and blow up.

Btw, my Prof said the craftsman ship is poor but that was before getting painted. He said, however, the design was excellent and wants it on display as an example.

In that case, it's brilliant!
