Timber Wolf Gold

Before I ship out for Adepticon and the Kickstarter launch event, here's a post!

Much like the Marauder, we just gave the Timber Wolf a face lift, though not as intensive as the Marauder.
This one mostly focuses around the nose geometry, which wasn't toleranced well for production, but there are detail cast-ability enhancements all around.
I also adjusted a few proportions, a hair more torso size, and more beef on the lower arms. It was me who fought to keep the arms smaller originally, but it wasn't until production that I saw they were too small. More overall size, more length, and a bit more barrel protrusion.

This model is also a special variant. See if you can figure it out. Though it technically works as two versions.
Feel free to share this around!

Sorry I didn't get more posted before heading out. I've still got plenty of Proliferation Cycle renders to show, and more KS stuff. But I guess we've got a whole month for the campaign.

Wish me luck at the con. I'm gonna be wiped out by the end of it :D

I've never liked the MWO cheek launchers myself. Extra reason here to not separate them was to work as 2 SRM6 or 3 SRM4. Otherwise it wouldn't work as an S much at all.

Anthony Scroggins

Ok, so I'm a BIG fan of the Timberwolf S, and I do love this, but I wish it had 4 separate launchers. I loved how MWO did it, with a launcher on each side of the cockpit, and another on each shoulder. That said, well done!

Joshua Bressel

Sweet!

It is the Bounty Hunter 2 config in the pack. The W is a communication error.

Anthony Scroggins

Anthony, will this be used as the Config. W in the Legendary III pack in the KS or do CGL/you have other plans for this model?

Bolththrower

Those ATMs doh

Blue Falcon

Yikes! Get better soon, man!

Sapphirus

Get well soon buddy!

The Con, great! The Covid after, not so great haha, but I'm surviving.

Anthony Scroggins

My C-bills for the 6M stretch goal are on a Battlefield Support pack with 2x J. Edgar, 2x Drillson, 2x Patton, 2x Pike. For the 8M "special", I'm hoping for three Mechs from RecGuide 23 and three new redesigns.. but we're not there yet.

TIM STRAUVEN

So how was Adepticon Anthony?

Kanrei13

Sweet, that is one of the sets I am looking forward to the most!

Falk

Maybe/probably.

Anthony Scroggins

No celestials. Yes to more minis, but mostly rec guide designs that have mostly finished 3D models already made.

Anthony Scroggins

Yep!

Anthony Scroggins

Previous Timberwolves had a lot of nose edits done by Liya that were fairly needed. Hopefully this model wont have those changes and the mini will look more like this render. This new nose is a hair narrower than previous ones, but same length.

Anthony Scroggins

I do wonder what they meant in the update about 8million dollars funded. Does that mean they will add the Celestials? Or what?

Kyokyodoka

Will we being seeing force pack renders for the Mercs Kickstarter? Would be great to see some artwork before making final selections!

Edina Lewis

Oh, I just caught the stretch goal update, if it gets to $4 Mil, there's a new Vehicle ForcePack to be gained through Add-Ons

Malintus

Iv'e heard there may be some flexibility - from you tubers that have talked to CGL, but it wouldn't be anything like last time. I hope there are some new stretch goals that are miniatures.

Aaron Thurston

Heh, nah, that won't be the case this time around, they learned their lesson, as far as I can tell, every mini for this KS was pre-planned in advance and the launch window was timed for only after models were ready to go into production I'll wager. No more spur of the moment packs, this time it's all fixed so that fulfillment isn't delayed as long as it was before.

Malintus

Anthony is probably freaking out right now!!! OMG $3M in one day.... We blew all the stretch goals in the first 2 hours..... Team we must design 100 new mechs over the next 28 days.

Aaron Thurston

So that's the Bounty Hunter 2 from the Legends III pack?

Falk

So I will not be able to join the kickstarter till payday tomorrow but as they reach 2 million now would be a good time to include the IMP just saying!

Robert Moore

Is the Mad Cat on the back of the Clan Invasion box different than the final model? the cockpit looks different and more like the original but I think I am just going crazy. It looks wider would be cool if it was an earlier version.

Wyatt Arthur

Definitely works as a S!
