Here's a weird one. The Firefly.
Bit of a colaborative design between me and Bishop. He did a starting sketch, but by the time I'd applied initial feedback I'd changed so much and almost finished it, so I took the assignment over haha. (don't worry I still paid the man some)

Is there anyone that asked for this mech? :D

Malintus

Finally, with this mech, I can recreate the MW3 intro in mini form! "Fireflies 1 and 2, track the Thor!"

Nice work there. Not as radical a makeover as Dave White's Klondike version, but a much needed update no less.

I think it's a great take on the design, and more "Succession Wars" feeling than David White's (also excellent) version from Op. Klondike. Do you have a narrative in mind for the design evolution between the two?

Honestly, it looks pretty cool. Nobody may have asked for it, but it turns out it is the Firefly we never knew we wanted!

I drove one of these for a while when TRO 3050 was first released. Didn’t look this cool, but it was still a fun campaign and mech…30-ish years ago. 🤫

Excellent work there! Shogun when?

This is one of those things you don't know you want till you see it.

Is the LRM launcher angled back and down, or is it facing straight ahead and the front end is shaved off at that 45 degree angle?

I was already impressed with the operation Klondike art. The mech is a beast in built up terrain.

ME! ME! I asked for the firefly.A m ech i hace great sentimental attachment to. I love what you;ve done here Anthony.

Yeah on ones like that or the gunslinger Mongoose, my thinking is let those designs cover that look and we'll aim for something else.

Any Wolf's Dragoons design is a friend of mine. Rad.

I -would- have asked for it but thought it was a fruitless venture. Very welcome surprise! Definitely buyin' this in mini form!

Honestly, lots of MW3 fans out there have been hoping for a redesign for a while. Looks fantastic.

I think this is by far the best the Firefly has every looked! And with MW3 being the best game, I'm sure there's a few of us who wanted to see it--I know I'm one of them.

Interesting, kind of reminds me of the fire falcon a bit, I look forward to seeing this in 3D form

Need more Hussar!

Now if you show us the Shogun, Imp, Hornet, Flea, and Falcon you would have enough mechs to a make a Wolf Dragoons force pack if there was one coming out! Just saying! ;-)

Covet, so much covet. I LOVE the Firefly

Such a tiny and beautiful Marauder II 🥰 Just kidding, it's really great!

I think I did at one point, it's one of my favorite mechs along with the ANH and BSW. MW3 was my intro to the BT universe. I also wrecked shop with a Firefly C in AS awhile back. I think it dropped 2 clan heavies and 1 clan assault.

*Wow*. That's a truly gorgeous rendition of the Firefly.

We need another Wolf Mech preview please!

Looks great! But now I'm curious what the interim redesigns looked like. Also, I looked up the existing metal mini and I can't match its weapons placement to the rules. I'm glad that's taken care of!

ShimmeringSword

Yeah this one definitely suffered from art not matching the stats. Maybe soon I'll post Bishops roughs. If he wants.

Any mech the made it in to a Mechwarrior intro cinematic is high on my list!!

Originally I wasn't impressed with the original artwork for this mech. However, after I saw the redesign on Historical: Operation Klondike I completely changed my mind. Ever since then I have been waiting on a miniature redesign that would do it justice.
