The results of looking at too many of Brian's Dawn Forge mechs.
About this creation
"Harbinger"-A sign of things to come. Funny enough, this wasn't actually inspired by Brian K-however-you-spell-or-pronounce-his-name, but by Mark Kelso's "Dawn Forgery". Anyway, with technology quickly advancing on both sides of the war, the people of Earth realized they needed something big. After only a couple months of development, the HCF-130 Harbinger was born. Standing at a whopping 30 feet (minus sensor array) this beast is a match for anything the C.O.P. has thrown at us (for now). It's massive hydraulic legs deliver a top speed of up to 25mph.
Armed with a MK IV mass driver, 4 MK II Anti-Aircraft missiles, and a MK III Anti-Tank missile, this thing can rip through Nazi's like there's no tomorrow.
Left side, showing the classic "chicken" mech legs and missile pods.
The rear of the mech. Nothing too special here. 'Couple exhaust vents and another view of the legs. I was to lazy to edit the remaining pictures.
Right side, showing off the MK IV mass driver.
Front view. I know it's kinda lopsided here but it usually isn't. Remember to always look at how you set up BEFORE you take the picture.
Top view(ish). Once again, nothing too special.
Missile pods. I do love missile pods.
Every self-respecting mech needs a BFG.
A close-up of the foot and shin. The ankle really loves to break here, and I think that's why it was lopsided before.
Don't you wish your girlfriend had legs like me?
A blurry picture showing I forget what.
The pilot for scale.

nice, I would call this one a mech, not a hardsuit... but whatever, I love the weapons.

I just thought I'd put it on seeing as CC-7576 put his DF mech on. |

Wow, sorry I missed this John, it’s excellent! Love the main gun and the asymmetry it creates. The balance between clean angular shapes and strategic greebling is spot on for Dawn Forge. Well done…feel free to add it to the DF group if you’d like. |

Excellent work, my friend. I see this mech has been trained by Popeye in the art of steroid taking. I love the beefy legs and weapon systems. Overall, excellent work. |

Keep it away from this one please.
Haha, no problem. Actually, I was wondering if the UNE has any use for such a craft. It, and all other USCMF (Unites States Consolidated Military Force) craft and equipment, are willing to be enlisted by its forces.

Ahhh Beefy Mech! That's some gun too on the right side! |

Thanks for commenting on my Peregrine. Though capable of engaging other aircraft, its technicaly not a fighter. Its an attack craft suited more for gound targets and mechs. Think the A-10 thunderbolt. Thanks again! Peace - Patrick

This is really good. Just a thought, why not install jets into the bottom of the legs where they come foreword, that way it could jump on the battlefield or even fly. The main gun reminds me of a rail cannon. I love the cockpit design and leg structure. Well done! |

Nice work! Brian Kescena... Kecnesca... Kesno... that's guys Dawn Forge stuff is amazing. This mech is really good too. My only gripe is that it looks like its sitting too far forward on its feet and is prone to falling on its face. But the design and colors are excellent. Nice work and thank you for looking at my M2009. I added a few more pictures if you're interested. Thanks, Peace - Patrick |

Well, I have still to talk to Will about that, but I guess you will only have to give your vote for one of the entries and say why you gave that entry your vote. |

Yes, I do wish my girlfriend had legs like that... but don't tell my wife. Nice mech! I built a mech once... once. Wasn't as cool as this little number. Keep it up! ~ Chris. |

Great mech, but I have to say, it really looks like it should tip over. Just pointing it out. Keep on building ~ Nowhereman
It's on the brink. I had to move the head back a stud before posting it.. |
