Hello all,
Time to continue with the Tex Talks Battletech art. This is the first piece I created of the much-maligned Baron destroyer.
Translating some of the old BT warship designs can be a challenge. The older art doesn’t always indicate where weapons are mounted. However, it’s generally indicated that the main armament is in the bow. That would be most of the naval class weapons. That being the case, I assumed most of the smaller “mech” equivalent weapons are defensive in nature. So, those ports along the back are for the Large Lasers and LRM launchers. The White Shark launchers are arranged along the ventral and dorsal spines.
Soon, we’ll see the Baron’s counterpart.
