Robocraft: The Leopard Has Reborn

Hey guys, Garens coming at you with another article today.

So, I have some news. The old Leopard Mk. II, that you can see in my second ever post on the blog, is no more. I have evolved it. It's now the Leopard Mk. III. I'm now going to walk you through how I did it and what I want to do with it in the future.



So, here it what I started with. This is the main body of the leopard stripped of it, getting the tier 6 steering wheels. I need money for one pair only.



This was why I wanted to redesign it. Electroplates. As soon as I saw the Tier 5 EP's I rushed them out. Then I didn't have the money to refit everything. But thanks to the premium days that Freejam gave everyone who was online under the sun I could finally afford the things that I wanted to afford.



This is how it turned out to be. The pilot seat I wanted to put somewhere... let's say not so obvious. That side is not so common in pilot seat placement as maybe in the front or the middle of the tank. Also, you can see the other 2 pairs of EP's on the side. I'm thinking of putting more on, because I'M LOVING THEM! I don't see how I could live without them this long!



And here it is. I LOVE IT! THIS IS MY NEW BEAUTY AND I LOVE EVERY BLOCK OF IT!! I had to put some 'WIP' green blocks in as I had no money left after doing this. Well, I hope you like it because I LOVE IT!

Now, here come some alternate shots to show you how it's all made up.



Front: The two main EP's are put so that every block is on the edge of not being able to be there. It looks good IMO.



Side: This slightly slanted back I kinda don't like. It looks like one of those gunbeds that people drive for free wins. But the agility and the form of the whole thing makes you forget that little point.



Back: This is the part I'm looking at this thing from this perspective all the time, as I'm playing it A LOT, so I had to make this look nice AND fit 6 SMG's. This was hard. But I think I managed well. BTW the nameplate was given with the Promo Code that Freejam gave us, and not one other robot of mine can fit it, so I put that on this robot.

If you enjoyed, please let me know by putting a little comment under this post and following the blog by e-mail.

Anyways, have a wonderful day and have fun out on the battlefield.
