Yeah, I have not been able to get things to come out of my mind really well right now so I found the problem, my brain had to poo, right now! So here is the hopefully artist's block removing excrement that hath come forth from my head. Yeah, I know, how the hell, well, just ignore the how and enjoy the picture. I actually stated up a custom Battlemech that she is bsed off of. weight 65 tons (says she is only 60) A 325 XL Fusion engine gives her a walking mp of 5 and a running of 8 (10 with MASC). Jump mp 4, 11 tons of Ferro-Fibrous armor (211 points 100% of maximum) 12 double strength heat sinks dissipate her heat built up through movement. Her armament consists of an Ultra AC/2 in her left arm with 3 tons of rounds giving 135 shots, twin medium pulse lasers in her center torso, an LRM 10 rack on her right shoulder with 3 tons of ammo giving 36 shots and a single ER large laser on her right arm gives her long range firepower, a single small pulse laser in her snout gives her minimal anti-infantry firepower. She has an Endo Steel structure and is ready for action. Fehw, there that was a lot, Battletech is currently owned by Wiz Kidz I believe and the Mechwarrior game series is held by Microsoft and hopefully kept alive through Smith & Tinker's new reboot.
Kendra is me.
Also can anyone name the two mech's behind her?

For a 65 ton mech thats a nice load out. Not quite a "killer" but it makes for a nice main line heavy mech. The armour and jump make it quite useful.
Battlemaster and Thunderbolt would be my guess both are very nasty mechs and nice to field. The Thunderbolt looks nasty in itself and quite ominous.
The shoulder missile rack and cockpit is definately reminiscent of the BLM and the Arms are reminiscent of the Thunderbolt (except the right arm I believe mounts a laser on a standard hand instead of the actuator-less hands. the weapons layout is also similar to the Thunderbolt though you have made a bit of modifications.

Yeah, and Kendra is not even an Omni-Mech, though she is clan based.
As for the smaller of the two mechs and the most difficult to see it is the 55 ton MS1-0 Men Shen, the first Capellen produced Omni-Mech, here in it's primary configuration, it is armed with twin medium plse lasers on both arms and a single LRM 25 in it's right torso, with a walking mp of 6 and running mp of 9 (12 with MASC) it has a total of 17 tons of pod space.
The larger one is the 75 ton TYM-1A Toyama, a Word of Blake mech, it is not an Omni. Armed with 2 ER Large Lasers in its right arm, and LRM 20 in its right torso, 3 Medium Lasers in its left torso, a Guardian ECM Suit, and an LB 10-X AC in its left arm, it has a walking mp of 4 and a running of 6, (sadly most clan mechs of this size have 6 for walking...) both of these mechs are frmo the 3060 tech-manual. As you can see she is not with any major power and is most likely in a mercenary outfit.
But nice guess on the idea of my modifying stock mech's, in my opinion I leave them alone as mutch as possible, as they are not broken in my opinion, I make from scratch and will upload a possible actual pic of the mech I designed...

Thanks for elaborating. I couldn't quite pin your left arm there with the Toyama though it did look very familiar so I made the best guess I could. I haven't fielded it in game-play either so It wouldn't surprise me that I missed it. (though I have read 3060 quite a few times)
The Men Shen well I also haven't used it much so I probably wouldn't have had any idea.
Someone must be a really hardcore tabletop player to be using those two. The thunderbolt and Battlemaster alone get little exposure outside of that community let alone these two.
As for your opinion on modifying yeah the game designers do make some nice mechs when they want to. But with fanart you don't have to be cannon if you don't want to really so its why I made that guess.

Heh, I am a cannon freak when it comes to something that was made by another, it must look like it in some way, though the Warhammar and the Rifleman and others that originally were designed from Robotech need to be slightly chaneged lest Harmony Gold eat your brain.
Also to your notice on the table top gamer, I have yet to play Battletech at all, I am a fanatic who finds few people and less time to do so, so I am relegated to mechwarrior 2 and 3 for a close fix. And I like pulling the lesser known mechs' out as they are often times the more unique ones when you get into the Inner sphere mechs'. However I shall always be a a Clan Wolf in exile trueborn/freeborn at heart.
Also, also kudos to you since it took me a while to find the Battlemaster and the Thunderbolt, I forgot that they were removed from 3025 when the Warhammar and others as mentioned above were.
Man am I a geek or what, Auff, Neg?
