First project I've posted here

This map isn't playable, but I made it because I thought I could. And so I did: and it's the best project I've ever done on Forge.

Fans of the MechWarrior/MechAssault series would love this. It's basically a giant mech made out of blocks, wedges, ramps, and a radio antennae. A little uneven, especially when you look at it from the rear, but I did the best I could. I added a few hogs and a tank to play around with. Slayer is the only game worth playing it with, as I didn't care so much for to make this a legitimate gaming map; it's really just for show.

But it's still fun to go inside a mech, and fire rockets and lasers at small armored targets, right?

You can tell I'm still kind of on amateurish side (I just learned how to merge blocks when I made this) considering that I made things hard on myself right from the beginning. If you can see, the feet (which I obviously worked on first) aren't really in the middle of the map, which made it difficult to suspend the left arm in the air evenly. It's also why it's further away from the torso than the right arm. Oh well >_<

What do you think?

 

Thanks, and I mentioned how I finally started merging blocks in the paragraph at the very end. It really helped me as I finished it up. I keep forgetting that it's really called interlocking...but you get the idea.

 

Thank you; those last couple of pics I did myself, only because I was alone after I just finished. My bro and I kind of toyed around with that idea a while after I played with the weapons first. I'll have to convince my own friends to join in and launch every possible weapon on this thing, though.
