Summoner Prime model's autocannon arm
« on: January 18, 2011, 01:09:36 AM »
I might have missed a thread about it but I find the model of the Summoner lacking in the fact that the autocannon is too far back in the housing. I find this kind of.... whimpy (to use a politically correct term)

I propose that it is moved forward (if possible) and accept the fact that other guns might stick out a lot. This might mean that the summoner is easier to spot, the variant easier to identify or even easier to hit. I for one am easily ready to accept any of these drawbacks to let the game be cool. This game is very visual and I think the mechs should look good and to be honest this really bugs me about an otherwise fantastic model.

The current shovel design is clearly intended to mutilate the enemy without damaging the autocannon during the BRUTAL UPPERCUTS this 'Mech likes to deliver.

Moving the AC forwards, or the BRUTAL UPPERCUTS? Your adoring fans NEED to know.

Does this prostate check segue into a BRUTAL UPPERCUT into a softer area of the 'Mech? If not, I suppose you can go for the freakout factor to put them off their game.
