Raven light assault mech (updated)

[Bragallot]

The Raven is a light mech in the Neo-Prussian Empire best used for scouting and infantry support due to it's speed. It's inspired by Mechwarrior, as most of you will have realized



First time using this colour scheme for the Prussians, (blue replaced the black so I could build more) I'm not unhappy with it.



The Raven isn't built to shine in 1 particular role (save perhaps scouting) but is adequate at everything instead.



Hence the weaponry: Twin light lasers and a machine gun against infantry, two heavy cannons to take on vehicles and two particle beams that can keep up a constant attack and deal damage over time, also useful against air assaults.



Added leg armour (as advised by Ex Bajir ) and thrusters that allow him to make short leaps or jump unto platforms.



The hatch fits a mini snugly. This is why white uniforms aren't allowed in Prussian burger restaurants.

It's also equipped with a light shield generator, forgot the picture for it now but I'll add it later.

Edit:



The Raven evening out a skirmish.



Notice the shields where the Immortal Alliance is trying to shoot it. The coupled armour-shields are enough to keep it safe against most handheld weapons.

Do the legs bend? They look like stilts

[Bragallot]

No, I wasn't going for that this time around. I make stuff poseable when I want to be able to pose it (like the Gekka), otherwise I'd be using joints I could use elsewhere.

A pretty decent mech, although I find the top hatch a bit ugly. The blue/light blue color scheme fits well. Looking forward for more mech works Brag

Would it help if I did away with some of the studs?

Nice mech, I like the color scheme as well.

Brag, just like sit down with your technic and hinge and tap parts and put them together in a random fashion until you find a method of articulation that you like. Then build something out of it if possible. That's how I came up with my Black Knight hardsuit design, and a new arm design that might one day replace it. But yea my experience is that articulated mecha are Over 9000 times cooler than ones which can barely move. I spent a couple of days figuring out the design for the Black Knight, so this stuff takes patience but the reward of a nice mecha is incredibly awesome.
