Firestarter Concept Sketch
Added 2021-06-25 05:36:07 +0000 UTCI have so many Bishop designs I could dump for you, and his enjoyment, but lets get one of mine in haha.
The Firestarter Omni briefly popped up in the Clan Invasion kickstarter if I recall, to some confusion from people wanting the OG model. Then some sadness as neither made the cut when all the substitution voting was done.
Well now it's time to give it a pass. I had plenty of good sources to pull from new and old. I think a lot of good points from the old art were never translated to the mini. So hopefully when this one gets its turn you get the expected translation from this design sketch.

❤ That helmet head is PERFECT!!!! Are we ever going to see these mibis that aren't in the Kickstarter?????

2021-07-07 08:46:37 +0000 UTCthat's one that probably would land on your plate anyhow wouldn't it Anthony? Cause that almost certainly will be a major "blow up" job on par with the Crockett.

2021-06-27 21:05:11 +0000 UTCBishop implied that he's not working on the Vindi... so maybe one of the other designers is ?

2021-06-26 14:42:16 +0000 UTCGreat Firestarter rework. Is there a Dervish that I missed, by chance? Also, a Chameleon at some point would be amazing.

2021-06-26 06:03:21 +0000 UTCI like the canon variant that replaces two of the flamers with additional medium lasers.

2021-06-26 01:14:48 +0000 UTCWell, damn. I guess the vindi was 5 tons too fat to join the 40 tons of freedom . #mechbodyshaming ;)

2021-06-25 22:53:02 +0000 UTCthat might not be a bet I'd recommend

2021-06-25 21:54:47 +0000 UTCin my head canon , ever piolet of this mech smokes a big Cigar in the cockpit, while piloting
2021-06-25 17:13:13 +0000 UTCBonus on the fuel tanks. I love the wider cockpit visor. I always wished the firestarter’s cockpit looked like an oversized welders mask.

2021-06-25 13:27:56 +0000 UTCI use the mech extensively in HBS. I absolutely love it. If Catalyst made just one more plastic mech, this would be my vote. I just love overheating and shutting down my opponent.

2021-06-25 12:55:11 +0000 UTCTbh, i never liked or used firestarters. The design is solid but as with many light mechs the positioning of the model is important to translate the agility. Wake me up when vindicators arrive, or jagermechs. I could bet bishop has a vindicator up his sleeves… gib!

2021-06-25 09:54:41 +0000 UTCThat's hot! plus the mech looks good too.

2021-06-25 08:25:13 +0000 UTCThat is one ugly mech haha.

2021-06-25 06:23:40 +0000 UTCSweet ! Very happy to see the OG Firestarter get a relooking.

2021-06-25 06:00:59 +0000 UTCLike it, but have everything crossed for a gallowglas update, it's a cool mech with decent art & a mini which bears little resemblance to any, I want a chonky 'glas!

2021-06-25 05:47:12 +0000 UTCThis mech is on fiyah!
