She needs the BattleCorps blue accents, but she is looking very nice.

I learn something new every day. Had no idea she had blue accents on the pink machines.

WOW, that's bright! So much for camo! That's one way to get a lot of attention on the battlefield.

Maybe it's the pink or maybe the miniature, but there's just something not right about this paint job.

I usually like your work wackrabbit, but this one just doesn't do it for me.  I think it's the fact that there doesn't seem to be a contrasting color against the pink, but I'm not sure.  The weapon and cockpit jeweling looks fine though.

Whack,

Joey uses perfect BattleCorps colors, only she substitutes pink for Tan and does not paint her leg.

You all think this is bad. Try and be the survivor who explains about the pink Demolisher. Fortunately, there are rarely survivors of the Monster.

A pink Demolisher?  Yeah, I can imagine trying to explain that one now.

sweet! pink is my second fav colour and to see it on a mech makes it even more awesome, plus i've always wanted to join the battlecorps regiment, but i'm to lazy to go through the process
"Warriors, not war machines, are the backbone of the Hell's Horses. While others worship the BattleMech as the ultimate weapon, the men and women of this Clan see even this awesome piece of technology as the tool it is. We have held to this philosophy since the days of our first Khan, who knew that the value of the common soldier far outstripped the brute force of the BattleMech. It is one reason our Clan possesses fewer mechs than most, and has led many to underestimate our fierceness and courage. Our survival against all challengers when others have fallen proves the folly of such arrogance, and testifies to the wisdom of our founders."

I would assume that was the "intended effect" of Nichole's paint scheme...per JHS 3076..

Indeed, and a mech is a good vehicle to learn. Plus it's going to take an extremely dedicated cop to go up and stick that fine under the canopy windscreen wiper when you park it wrong.  ;D

I CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF OF IT!!!!!

The contrasting color was what it needed, very nicely done.  I hate to say it, but it looks like some kind of weird flavored piece of Hubba-Bubba chewing gum now.  Like Strawberry-Blueberry or something.  Maybe we can sell the idea of 'Mech shaped chewing gum to Topps or something.  ;D

Well, you know, a lot of people have tried to chew on the Battlecorps ... the more fortunate ones were those who could afford a good dentist afterwards.  ;D
