Hatamoto-Chi Concept Sketch

Now that the secret is out on Kickstarter, here's the Hatamoto-Chi concept in full view!

Was fun refining this one. Not a favorite mech of mine, but one I had a good idea for working on. I also did a commissioned piece of one waaaay back in time. I wanted to better work in the samurai armor slat styling without going overboard. More accurate details rather than more detail overall seemed to work well.

One more mech knocked off the beggars list haha.

Perfect 10/10, no notes. Love to see the redesigned Hatamoto!

No matter which I’ll go to The heaven or the hell My mind is clear Like the sky at dawn

Scott

Hah. Unlikely.

Anthony Scroggins

Will there be a 5-6 pack (Hatamoto-Madness)with all the 4 original 3050 variants (-Hi, -Mizo, -Kaze and -Ku) + Hatamoto-Chi Daniel (from sword and dragon) 😉

Carlos Ibanez

BANZAI!

James Bixby

so your saying its possible?

Ryan Ulick

I'm not sure on that.

Anthony Scroggins

It's a reference to it being built on a Charger frame. Those Combine engineers were too lazy to properly integrate the PPC into the central arm housing. Spent their time on samurai armor instead. It uses a weapons fitting from a Thug, which uses outboard PPCs, so they used those mounts.

Anthony Scroggins

I cannot shed any light haha. But if you like what you see, at least you know it's being made.

Anthony Scroggins

Does this mean there is going to be one last rec guide with this the and the mauler in it?

Ryan Ulick

I wish the PPC wasn't so far forward. The old design seemed better for punching.

Mike

Love it. This and the Mauler is what I needed for my Sword of Light company.

Charles granger

It's where the hand actuator would be if it had a left hand (It's blanked off). the PPCs are basically bolted on to the forearms. It might also be a throwback to the Charger chassis on which it is based and they just blanked the small laser mounting and strapped the PPC to the forearm since it might not have been able to fit within.

James Abbot-Cole

I like it. The updated armor works well. I kind of miss the over-length legs from the original (for that slightly anime proportioning), but this version feels more like an assault ‘mech.

Peter Shah

The primary version has 2x PPC and 2x SRM-6, right? Can someone explain what is happening on the left arm? I've never understood the two barrels there.

Andrew Wiesner

Hatamato-Chi for the win! I always loved this mech. Feels like it should have come with Snub-nose PPCs standard just because of the design. haha

Mike

Yeah, I am so curious about that one. That was such an unexpected tease.

Mike

Anthony, can you shed any light on the Yen Lo Wang we saw in the videos posted in the KS updates? Can you share any images? That is the #1 mini I am looking for, so I'm anxious to get any news about it. Thanks!

Andrew Wiesner

Great job Anthony!

It might not be your favorite, but I really appreciate this one because it’s absolutely my go-to Assault! Can’t wait to see it in plastic, let’s go 8M!
