Medium Strike 'Mech, Fen Wolf

[Fires-storm]

This is an elite mech in the use of Commander Blackthorne of the Dark Wolf group of elite mercenaries in my ever evolving mecha stories. Their home-world is Keldor V, on the very edge of the galactic space lanes. Being so far from the protection of the Central Circle of Empires, their help is always in demand, and as a result, their commander had this highly experimental 'Mech made. It was based off a wolf for improved stability, and had a modification from the original design in that its lower leg armor was removed and its paws condensed for greater jumping speeds and higher maneuverability and speed on land as well. It features a main turret on its back as well as a rocket pod mounted on its hip near the tail, carrying micro thermo-nuclear war heads for strikes on targets he would prefer not to get to close to. In addition to these, its Tiridium armor and outfitted Tiridium alloy bladed teeth give it the option of being able to go close combat if necessary. Also, it is outfitted with a secondary A.I. and a new prototype called the "brain box" so that if the pilot is ever injured or taken from the 'Mech, it will be able to either evacuate itself, or mount a search and rescue to be able to save him on its own. A very powerful prototype, he wants to put it into mass production soon to be able to outfit the rest of his group with such a fine piece of machinery.

This time I'm starting with an image of the head, the mouths open to show his Tiridium teeth for use in combat:

and a final one at an interesting angle with the mouth open:

I hope you all enjoy it, its something that was slightly inspired by the anime Zoids!(the old ones)

Hello, VOLTRON !

Smegging AWESOME 'Fires-Storm' !

Love it - reminds me of the battle lions of Voltron !

Great design and build, cool missile pods and heavy cannons - love it I do !

Do you get in to the cockpit via the open mouth - COOL !

Excellent work 'Fires-Storm' and I'm a conformist! !

Thanks so much, I'm so glad you like it! Funnily enough I hadn't even heard of Voltron till you mentioned it^^" And luckily no, the cockpit opens, just a little tight:P (Squeezing past Tiridium teeth able to bite through most armor would SUCK)

Now that's a nice mech.

I especially like the bulky look.....

Very cool and interesting creation! I like the overall design and points of articulation. But I really don't like the fangs on the top jaw they look very out of place and the tail seems pretty blocky but other than that I really like this guy.

Thanks, as to the fangs on top, i was going to go with a row of teeth like the bottom, but then it wouldn't close, and I'd rather have the fangs then no teeth at all

And Zero: Thanks, I was hoping to make it appear slightly blocky but not encumbered, so that it could be agile but powerful
