First Impressions: Holy $#!T I forgot how big those ba$tards are when I'm not piloting one! I almost always think like a trooper with my boots on the ground. Your solid effort here had me thinking "how long are the canisters in my air regen pack gonna last?!"Composition: The low angle and a solid rule of thirds arrangement of elements keeps the viewer engaged. strong lines of movement and focusing our attention leave us free to follow the lines without fear of missing an element that builds the story. silhouetting the solider against the [exploding Plasma core, PPC hit?] big explosion flash effectively highlights the humanity of that figure and, for me, the unknown pilots in the mechs.Color: Keeping the palette clean, choosing the yellow orange for powder/projectile weapons and blue for other light sources was a good choice. Respecting the darkness , smoke , chaos was an equally good choice. the negative spaces add to the image.Strategic: 3x 60-80 ton mechs with minimal close support, and no medium mechs seems to tell me this is a full frontal assault.Final thoughts: You did what writers and artists always want to do. You produced a piece of work that looks good and leaves the viewer wanting to know more?
