Thankee.

It's my take on the Avatar WarMech from Tiberium Wars.

Really?

All I see is a lot of black, some red, and a bit of grey.

Oh, wait, there it is, I see the potential now, it was hiding behind the obvious!  :D

Looks good for a start chief, i would like to see where you are heading with this. You have an interesting take to start from.

Despite the fact that one of my brothers is a professional cartoonist and my other brother is an amateur artist, I couldn't draw to save my life.

I can only see problem and that is the Upper Arm Pocket. I wore a jacket with an angled pocket there abouts. I found it next to usless. Smoke pack got crushed, note pad caused the bottom rear corner to pull the sleeve out and caused an uncomfortable arm pit. Anything that was carried in that pocket had to be thin as a folded sheet of paper.

A good Idea would be a narrow mid-length (6") pocket above the boots out side of the leg. Mag size or close to it! I have a pare with the pockets there. Easy access to a spare Mag or cord, though going through water I would move them; elsewhere, but the pocket there are good for stuff the can be reached while crouched.

Have an update on the JCU:



What you see here is essentially a "template" for how the uniform is put together. Each branch has their own favored camouflage pattern; the Army with a Dualtex-inspired camouflage, the Marines with MARPAT II, the Air Force with AIRPAT, and the Navy with NWU II. In addition to this, the specifics of the wearing of the JCU varies between the branches. Pictured is an Army infantryman.

Testing out some camo patterns for the JCU. First up:


This one was inspired by old-school tank Dual-Tex.

A number based on Multicam, but more intended for woodland use instead of arid regions:

This one I'll likely lighten up a bit, but I think I rather like it...

The line art basically disappears behind that, although the camo pattern is nice.

Any updates on the Tank?  It was looking pretty wicked!  Though the last update looked like you dropped the boxy missile launcher off the left side of the turret (tanks perspective left)?
