It's beautiful!  Nice job slimming down those legs.  It doesn't look ridiculous anymore!  O0

OK, per the QCC, got the heed shaved doon a bit, changed the neck piece, attached the feet to the shins and thighs to shins, added a hand guard on the Left hand and filed the hips down to get the legs closer to the pelvis. Number of pieces 6.

Can we see the updated version?  I'm glad to hear you brought the hips in.  The legs are the worst part of the original design.

Now that the first six have been funded, when can we expect to see a new poll for the next six?

Great work Berhle, looks really good  O0
Incoming fire has the right of way.

The only thing more accurate than incoming enemy fire is incoming friendly fire.

Always remember that your weapon was built by the lowest bidder.

I'll get some pics shot in a bit.  IWM is waiting to hear from the company who owns the Battletech copyrights as to weather they are going to renew IWM's licensing to produce miniatures.  As soon as that happens we will get moving on the next batch of Battletech awesomeness (or not)...

:o What!!!

I don't see why they wouldn't renew.

I wouldn't get too worked up over the licensing statement. It's probably a pretty common occurrence that happens every few years, but we don't ever hear about it. Heck, I'm working on renewing a TON of license agreements at my job right now, both licenses with vendors whose stuff we use and clients who license our stuff. It doesn't mean any of them are at much risk for not being renewed.

Anyway, back on-topic: It always bugged me that a mech named the Black Knight had neither a sword nor a shield. I'm glad to see that has been rectified in such a beautiful fashion! I also think the one-piece legs look great. With that slightly-bent-knee look, I've been plenty happy with the posability I can get from just a hip joint, but that is just me.

Yeah it's prolly nothing, it happens every coupla years I think.  The knees are slightly bent and one foot is completely flexed and one is completely extended, which will add to poseability.

Will the first DA Black Knight fit onto those legs?

I'm not much for one-off's so probably only want the legs for my two or three other black knights that I haven't painted yet  :D

I'm personally going to have a custom Black Knight config that has a sword and shield; shouldn't be too terribly hard to make one out of the new chassis.  Then I'll just use this guy for those. :D

Yep, the legs are interchangeable, though you will need to shave the original ball joints down to get them closer to the hips.

Also, IWM has gotten the O0 for another year, so we can go ahead with the next round of Fan Financing!  Speck is master of ceremonies as far as that's concerned so...take it away Speck!  :D
