Is it me, or why don't i see more customised or painted mechs on the battlefield? Maybe i don't look close enough, but every game i play, there are maybe one or two mechs with nice paintjobs and/or different body parts than the originals.

Where are all the beauty queens ................................ like miself.

Show yourselves.

Your bruiser's paint job is dangerously close to how I paint all my mechs. I demand you change it.

I bet there aren't a lot of people who want to spend real money to only change their cosmetic appearance. Plus paint jobs like that make you stick out like a hotdog at a hamburger party.

I tend to turn the saturation on my colors down to only show a hint of the original color, leaving mainly the pattern, or just straight black and purple. Either way, not THAT interesting :\

I am also looking forward to purchasing some heart-themed paints this coming week. My scout and brawler still feel awfully naked.

I hope that the price ot the checkered one will be lowered in the future. 1700+ (i think 1745) MC is just too much for one paintjob.

I'd actually love to see more stuff added to the body shop and I do like seeing other people's custom mechs on the battlefield.

Yes, more body parts would be great.
Probably a new mech coming end of Feb begin Mar (i assume).
I hope they release some more camos too, but also i would like to see camos like in MechWorrior Online.
Real nice stuff there, i don't know how to call that in English but they are like drawings (eyes,...), like people paint flames
on their cars. How is that called in English?

I found out later that the parts I bought were the grenadier's default parts. It must be a sign and my future calling *hint hint* J/K :D

I hate brightly coloured mechs but I love customisation. My own have relatively subtle schemes.
