This one was a lot of fun to work on :)

Warhammer IIC. A solid design that many love, though I'm not sure how often it's played or that anyone is very set in how they think it should look, so I went in loose on this and aimed to just make a cool 80 ton armored beast of a Warhammer.

Japanese art basis, project phoenix center torso influence, and an injection of my new Warhammer's parts to show lineage.

Question! I think we should go with a cockpit matching the new classic, I also have a "more glass" version. I think the added glass starting making it feel like a Zeus but I'm open to opinion.
Which would you prefer?

I would probably say less glass, i.e. left. Honestly, they both look great. Given the Clans would have based it on the Inner Sphere Warhammer, what kind of cockpit did you choose for the regular Warhammer?

Anonymous

Love it! I'd crap my pants seeing it in front of me lol. Old cockpit better. Left

Anonymous

The one on the left.

Anonymous

Cockpit on the left by far.

Anonymous

I prefer the one on the left but I thought the IIc had 2 streak SRM 6 launchers?

The less glass version looks tougher, more like the classic design. The more glass version looks more like the Dark Age clicky-tech design.

Brandon Ulick

I like the look of the more open cockpit my selfishness

Anonymous

For painting I like the more glass in the cockpit, but the smaller glass version looks more aggressive to me. I like the carry over of the reseen torso. Either or it is a design.

wiski

I think the 'more glass' cockpit makes it start to look a little too much like a Battlemaster, or as you said, Zeus cockpit.

Zera

Less glass for sure. Too much glass in the head and it stops looking like a Warhammer in my opinion.

Aaron Stevens

Armored cockpit definitely looks meaner, and fits perfectly as the IIC of the new Warhammer design. I think you nailed it.

I like the one with less glass. It has more of the original warhammer feel to it... As always, you designs are impressive

Anonymous

I think they are both excellent, the left one though looks really mean. Hope we see the Zeus soon! :)

Carlos Sempere

Left. It looks like someone stuck a B-17’s nose onto a mech, but it also looks more menacing. It’s a solid, brutal design.

Left, hands down. Glass was always at a premium with the original and I think that look translates best in that particular image.

David

Less glass.

I prefer the left one, too much glass doesn't work as well for this mech.

Anonymous

Less glass, looks mean as fuck!

Anonymous

Less glass for me.

Damen DeLeenheer

I actually kinda like more glass, but both are cool.

Anonymous

Wow I really love the one on the left. Really feels like an up-armored, classic. It’s awesome. Only critique I could have of lefty-boi is the “point” on the chest. Would need to see it in 3d, but at first glance it looks... well I don’t know. It’s a question mark.

Sapphirus

I'm more into the one on the left :) So less glass

Anonymous

Also prefer the less (glass) is more version

Andrew Bethards

The “More Glass” looks too happy. “Hi friends! Would you like to have a Trail of Possession? It will be just swell!”

Tyler Erickson

The big boy on the left has my vote.

jaymes baird

Less glass is better I'm also not a fan of the airplane nose chest.

Paul Mabbott

Right is a Mackie IIC lol. Small glass please!

Anonymous

The glass cockpit looks good on a Zeus, not on a Warhammer.

Ryan Voigt

Left for me. Right looks too Battlemastery.

Joseph Robles

Armored and less glass is better.

Anonymous

Less glass is better. I prefer the left version.

James Bixby

More glass option strikes me as being more clan like, valuing combat visibility more then protecting the warrior.

Robert Schuster

Love it! The combination of classic, Project Phoenix, and newer influences is great and works quite well. Definitely on the side of left/less glass. So long as you're keeping those chunky arms, I think you're good.

Henning Boessler

Really like the new version here. But, opposed to the majority, i like the right one better with more glass. Especially for painting this will be better.

Jakob Fredensborg

Looks like a baws! And definitely, I’d prefer the left one

Danny

Definitely prefer the left version...the one with more glass looks odd...

Stewart Spencer

My only constructive feedback would be that I don't like the 'paddle' Arm gun mounts. But I'd concede they are pretty iconic part of the IIC design. (Just a bit I don't like)

Steven Cross

Less glass for me, the shrouded cockpit look is pretty darn iconic for the Warhammer and the Wammy IIC went with this too.

Henning Boessler

Something to add from my side: Even if i usually don´t like a lot of the IWM mechs the last Warhammer IIC with the heavy large lasers was really good. will the new warhammer iic be, in the final version, similarly dynamic as the Warhammer IIC 8? Any chance to see some Versions with ATMs or Heavy Lasers? I know this is the Clan Invasion, but I really like this stuff!

All the models in the kickstarter are going to represent their base variants. Though iirc Ironwind metals will eventually sell other variants afterwards

Less glass for me too ;)

One on the left for sure, looks menacing

Raymond White

The traditional "classic" version is much more Warhammer. I see the influence of the PP Hammer in the other cockpit, which isn't bad, but I like the classic tie-in better

Raymond White

Speaking of feeling like a Zeus, are we going to see new art for that soon for the comparison here? :D

Anonymous

I prefer the left option. Both are nice but the cockpit of the left looks more like the Warhammer. This mech looks great. Great work!

Maxime C. Rosa

My money's on the left cockpit. Terrific job again my goodman!

Anonymous

Definitely the cockpit on the left. Looks fantastic though!

Anonymous

I like the left one better

Cookie

Definitely the "less glass" version. Like it!

Anonymous

Less glass FTW!!! The extra glass makes it look like the love child of a Whammy & a Griffin, that does 2 days of shoulders at the gym.

Anonymous

The cockpit matching the new version makes the most sense to show its design can be traced to that older Mech. Go with the left.

Anonymous

Less glass is the look.

Anonymous

I like the functional nature of the "more glass" cockpit. The "less glass" version looks like it would be harder to maintain situational awareness.

Ryan de Haas

Wow, I love how you keeping making all the IIC models look distinct while still being instantly recognizable. I vote for the "less glass" version. It looks more predatory as befitting a Clan mech.

Mark

Looking great, I vote for the left one, with less glass.

Anonymous

Definitely the left with the less glass. Both are still great though!

Anonymous

IBID. The one with less glass looks better. The closed cockpit is more evocative of it progenitor. The larger cockpit makes it look too friendly, the closed in design is far more sinister looking. Very curious to see this design from additional angles.

Anonymous

Less glass. Also, maybe lower the arms a bit?

Anonymous

Great work. Less glass is better

Alex F

Late to the party, but I prefer more glass. However, it's an awesome design regardless

Jeffery Smith

I love them both! the big glass makes me think of the Battle Master though.

Steve McNabb

Less glass makes it look like your new Warhammer redesign. More glass make it look like the Project Phoenix version of the Warhammer IIC.

Kanrei13

Go with the one on the left, and give me ten of them!
