Mech - Crest2 AC Skirmisher

thingiverse

This is the Crest2 AC Skirmisher, piloted by a Seasoned Lieutenant I've been wanting fun models to play Lancer with. I then set about building a model based on Crest. What would be more experienced pilot with more licenses be piloting for that Corp? This mech has more advanced Crest parts for arms / legs / core/ head / etc. They also have a serious upgrade on internal equipment. On the legs, they are only moderately faster, but feature armor plating. This aids with the significant increase in aerial boosting. The central core also holds additional ammo packs. The weapons are more specialized for close combat, and the targeting lockon computer is focused for quickly targeting a wide but shallow area. The held weapons are duel SMGs, with a backup revolver and blade. These weapons are fantastic for quickly eliminating quick short range targets. The shoulders hold an anti missile turret system to help aid getting in close to targets. We have a slightly more advanced Crest radar on the shoulder for locating combat targets more quickly. Finally we have a large tube full of dumb rockets that can do significant damage should a more slow target present itself. Like to think this could be a lancer who is branching into specialization. They can boost into combat, avoid the worst long range missiles, and start cutting up opponents. They have access to floating proximity drone mines should they be tasked with defending a location. Model isn't perfect, feel free to improve / fix. It's been a learning process for me working on this model, tho I think I have figured out a better solution to some of the model problems compared to Crest1 AC Bomber Hunter. Used a 25mm base from KingKorni. Wanted to have a hollow bottom, and 25mm scale, in the event you wanted it to hang on weird terrain, or add magnets. Shout outs to KingKorni for making a cool part! Much Love to From Software and Massif Press. Much appreciation to RD Games & Tech for useful tutorials on Youtube. Worth checking out for sure!
