Title: Hunted
Description: Forward elements shattered, Clanners seek cover in the smoke and mist.

Artist Comments: I've always been most inspired by Battletech images with emphasis on the characters - touching on that human element is, to me, the key of the Battletech universe. I recently found a bunch of old tech readout posters (the ones in white and pink with little people obviously drawn in the 80s), and so I was inspired to draw a 'retro' mechwarrior look: short-shorts, coolant vests, etc. The Timber Wolf, instead of being king of the battlefield, is secondary (and, indeed, blown-up!) to the drama taking place

Expressive, deep... kind of makes its own story. I can dig it.

Oh wow - you managed to pull off one of the hardest things to do in BattleTech: focusing on the character as the hero. This is something that my cover artists Michael Komark and Neil Roberts do so well which really makes the images strong. You did it well too. Really great work here Jamie!
