Prime - ecm head, 2 energy left arm, 1 energy right arm, 1 missile each side torso
A - ecm head, 2 energy left arm, 1 energy right arm, 1 energy left torso, extra ams right torso
C - 6 energy left arm, 1 missile right arm
D - 2 energy 2 ballistic left arm, 2 energy 2 ballistic right arm, 1 energy 1 missile left torso, 1 missile right torso

No B config but Hero 'Mech starts with B - Bellonarius - Streak SRM 4 in each side torso, supported by three machine guns in each arm, Heavy Medium Laser in left torso, Heavy Small Laser in the head. Two ton streak ammo, four tons machine gun reloads. Hard points match the above.

I was SO waiting for this, even if it sucks  ^-^
This is what all Black Lanners should look like (in my mind, TRO 3058 art never happened).

[Sharpnel]

Maybe it's just me, but it looks like the cockpit/torso area seems toosmall when compared to the lower torso. I love the paint scheme on the 'Special'

[IAMCLANWOLF]

Wow... proportions got absolutely wrecked. This looks like a 35 ton mech instead of the 55 ton Hot Rod she absolutely is in the TT.
Always really loved the Black Lanner too. This is a right bummer...  :-\

Much prefer the Sam Wood art... http://www.sarna.net/wiki/File:CCG_Arsenal_Black_Lanner.jpg

That is good art.  I have nothing against the original art for it.

[IAMCLANWOLF]

Fixed.

Muchhh better.

The first image looks too damn tall.

[worktroll]

From the waist up, O0
From the waist down,  ???

Little legs. Little, duck-like legs. That's what it needs.

Does the physics of the game prove to be unkind to rather different sized machines?  I remember a MWO player telling me that some people won't use certain assault Mechs like the Awesome or even the Mauler because they were huge flat chests were big targets easily hit by opposing players.

Yes, Awesomes tend to just suck in that game but I've seen a lot of Maulers - they're not as bad. Cataphracts had a similar problem with the wide head-on profile, but that's been helped out with extra hit points in the side torsos.

Fixed.

That you did, that you did. The legs are just way too tall in their version.

Missing an Awesome is like missing a barn door.

[Bren]

Fixed.

A different take. No resizing at all - just roughly rotating elements.

New - Old

[Iron Wolf]

I think it looks sharp, I plan on picking it up.

Black Lanner Tease

[Caedis Animus]

Dynamic Geo strikes again. Hopefully the SRM boat version I plan on running will be less ugly in the RA.

[Cache]

Squatted much more in the legs. Good.
