Cat-like units and commanders?

There is no such thing. You feeling okay?

In the context that is was supposed to be a scout unit....

Mike

Actually, these robots don't even need opposable thumbs. Everything they need can be done through nanobots or the lathe. Changing bolts? Lathe. Flipping pages? Lathe. There's hardly anything it can't do!

The body and the head look great. Thanks Mike!

I can see the two guns at he chest and a sensor suit if it was a tad smaller. The shoulder and leg mounted cannons hide too much of the feline form imo. But you hit the body form purrfectly!

Actually that's the smallest of the designs I came up with, had one that was a giant MGS style radome that was as big as the mech itself! xD I actually like the idea of keeping the 'underslung' gun because it creates this interesting usage where you have a fast, fragile scout-ish unit with a weapon that only has a 45 degree arc or whatever in front of it, so you end of with a neat hit and run unit as well.

Here's a quick pic without the extras;


Mike

Love it! The sensor array is large enough to make the unit clearly readable as scout and the body has clear lines and reflects the elegance of cats well.

NOW WITH MOAR DAKKA!

Its been like really quiet at work today.......

Mike

That's the attitude I like to see! Now add gun kneecaps.

Then you'll love this guy I did awhile ago;



Don't mind the different heads.

But yeah DAKKA!

Mike

Dude, do you think that the robot has enough guns?

There's Actually a version with more, BIGGER guns;

Gunsniper Linon Custom

This is the original version I based mine off of;

Gunsniper

Mike

. . . I'll be in my bunk.

LOL gunsniper linon custom has a shopping bag with rpg and ammo in it
pfffft like he needs it but still does his daily shopping like boss
made my day

Agreed, the shopping bag really was the finishing touch xD

that basked...
made my day

xD

I'd love to see four legged Commanders that vaguely resemble Cats.

Its what I would have requested for my custom if I could ever have justified spending over £600 on a game ...

Man, this robot is totally overloaded.

It gets even more ridiculous when you considering the actual scale between it and other Zoids, Checkout this Pic of mine, bottom center you see the Red Gunsniper I built, and right to it's left you see a fairly larger Lightning Saix I also built beside it. And again when you consider that something like the Geno Saureris about 50% longer than the Lightning Saix......

Zoids are ridiculous! xD

Mike

Would I like a quadraped robot?
Yes.

Do I want it to be a cat?
No.

Wolf, lizard, anon. I perfer, just don't call it a cat. Heck I'll accept a big cat, like panther or something.
Just don't call it a cat.

I hate the internets fascination with cats being the only reason

I take it you haven't been reading the thread then?

What would you say to something along these lines?
