Description A long promised gift artwork for my friend

It shows the Wasteland Warrior DRAKON, sitting on his battle mech MARAUDER and gazing over a vanished city.
This picture took quite a while, but offered a welcome chance to draw a mech again. Hope, you like it, Drakon!

Hey Hey endlich mal wieder was neues vom "Wastland Warrior".
Wirklich wieder mal ein beeindruckendes Bild.
Aber... ich bin etwas bewandert im "Battletech" Universum und der Mauruder ist um einiges Größer als sie ihn auf diesem Bild in relation mir Drakon dargestellt haben.
Trotz allem ein geniales Bild.

Danke schön! Ich weiß, der Marauder ist eigentlich größer aber das kommt auch immer darauf an, WO er hergestellt wurde! Und hier, in diesem Universum, ist es halt jene Größe. Auch muss DRAKON sich schon sehr reinzwängen.... Aber was soll's! Immerhin hatte ich Hilfe von meinem Bruder - auch ein großer BATTLETECH Fan! Danke für den Kommentar.

Immer wieder gerne.

Die idee des Nachdenklichen Drakon gegen den Sonnenaufgang ist irgentwie nett ich glaube eine solche Szene wäre passend für meine Geschichte.

Nun, wenn DRAKON das erlaubt... könntest du sogar das Bild als Illustration für deine Geschichte verwenden! Wie dem auch sei, bis denn und mach es gut!

Als ich das letzte mal Kontakt mit ihm hatte meinte er die Ideen wären gut und umsetzbar, Leider ist der Kontackt irgentwie abgerissen.

Ah the mech design, it was from mechwarrior, but it also appeared in Macross as a zentrandi enemy mech design.

ReptileCynrik In reply to Poila-Invictiwerks [2008-08-20 16:19:20 +0000 UTC]

Yep, it IS a battle mech from "BATTLETECH" (MechWarrior is the PC version of this universe).

ReptileCynrik In reply to darkdragon23 [2008-08-18 16:58:41 +0000 UTC]

Fury1031 [2008-08-18 03:08:20 +0000 UTC]

okay, i need to think on this one just a minute... ...he wants to blow stuff up?

just joking, okay, hmm... i think he is waiting for whatever enemy there is to attack, but dislikes the fact that he has to do this. maybe there's a war involved

ReptileCynrik In reply to Fury1031 [2008-08-18 17:00:41 +0000 UTC]

^..^ Thanks for the comment. I am sure, that DRAKON is a proud warrior but... watching this devestated city can really lower your mood.

A-Teivos [2008-08-14 19:19:51 +0000 UTC]

Insane. Just after looking on the pic I noticed the cannon mount looks really subtle for such a weapon! XD
Somebody kill me

NONETHELESS the picture sure has atmosphere! (which reveals only after commenting the gun, blah me)
It is nicely and technically made (the mech) and it has that cartoony look. If it fits or not, I wont judge

Is it just me or the mech lacks camo? On the other hand, it would look.... militarily dull with a camo.

ReptileCynrik In reply to A-Teivos [2008-08-15 10:26:30 +0000 UTC]

WOW, THANK YOU! One of my favorite weapon and armory expert gives me such a nice comment... I feel happy and honoured! ^..^ *hugs*
I'm glad, the atmosphere is appropiate... usually, I just draw a character and that is it. But this time, I wanted the "end of world" atmosphere, too.
Cameo....?! I admit, this mech does NOT have a good camouflage. But this pattern was part of the request. ^..^

A-Teivos In reply to ReptileCynrik [2008-08-15 12:46:45 +0000 UTC]

Hehe, you're welcome!
I've heard already many opinions about Mechs and their hypothetical usefulness / uselessness on a batlefield and I'm kinda skeptic about them as well (High profile, low speed, too many poking-out parts etc). But its not you who should hear that, since its an 'invention' of other people

Yup, and you drew a machine as well. In fantasy pics it wouldnt have such a punch to atmosphere (E.g. Devon standing near a Ballista? uh duh )

Aaayup. Honestly, I never saw a mech with a good camouflage XD

Heh heh...Battletech. Marauders are awesome, although isn't he a bit big to fit in the pilot's seat on that one? O.o

Well done as always! Entertainment for my eyes.

ReptileCynrik In reply to Panamatt [2008-08-13 08:33:04 +0000 UTC]

Well, MARAUDERS are quite common mechs... Never mind.
Sure, Drakon is a little too huge... he'd have to bend his wings, huh? But maybe, there IS enough space in the cockpit.

You always fail to not impress me and once again you have done it! With the sheer detail of the mech you have put my herculan that I just submitted to shame! Never ever stop because if you do I will have the police bust down your door and charge you for failing to impress the online community for an extended period of time.

For Drakon gazing at the distant silhouette of the city behind a colorful sunset builds a mood for this pic.
