Hellhound II Concept Sketch
Added 2023-01-18 04:20:22 +0000 UTCAnyone see this one coming? All the way back to the first kickstarter I was wanting the MW4 style Hellhound brought in officially, but at the time the bosses wanted the unseen version. It was agreed on we'd circle around to this one though, and here it is!
Still a little bummed due to the resulting TRO loadout not being able to have the double left arm and right torso barrels, but I did keep a generic greeble barrel on the torso to offset.
Otherwise I've always considered the design to be so well done that I had so little to change. Tweak a few proportions here and there, enhance areas that were vaguely textured, etc.
You'll be seeing this one pop up in the Recognition Guide dropping this week. Hope we don't take too long to turn it into a mini.

Any word on when this might show up in a Forcepack or via IWM?

2023-01-19 17:50:48 +0000 UTCI think if you don't have nostalgia for it from MW4 Mercs, it might not hit the same.

2023-01-18 23:02:21 +0000 UTCWith the incorporation of MW4 aesthetic Mechs like the Loki II, Thor II, and Vulture III, and even the Deimos from the MekTek expansion, I'm actually surprised it took this long to incorporate the Hellhound, given how good it looked. Good compromise on the mismatch between the original model and the weapon's loadout.

2023-01-18 20:22:22 +0000 UTCThey could have named it literally anything. My beloved Conjurer needs a true successor.

2023-01-18 16:50:57 +0000 UTCI love this design, always thought it was one of the most successful ones from David White, even if incoherent with any TRO and exclusive to MW4. I'm glad it's coming back. Just think the arms should be a bit higher up, leveled with the cockpit. Can't wait to see the 3D renders!

2023-01-18 16:11:45 +0000 UTCI like the visual design a lot, but the relationship between this and the more humanoid Hellhound/Conjurer is very confusing to me. Hopefully the recognition guide will clarify it.
