Scratchbuilding Battletech Blackhawk/Nova

Cham313on,
Well, as to specific pictures and references to this specific mech, the best stuff is out of print, out of production. Some stuff, like the Mechwarrior line from 2 to current is the most easily accessible, but if you can find one, the Mechwarrior Role-playing Game 2nd edition book is excellent. IT has a section devoted to the Clan Mechs, and their technology. While they use the Mad Cat as their example, the clans use a modular technology which carries from mech to mech. Also, if you can get a Mech Source book, with a listing of all the mechs, it has some info, but just one picture of the mech. Also, the BattleTech Compendium has pictures of mech models, but again, they are not of the Blackhawk, but of the Mad Cat, Vulture, and Thor, but these may have ideas for your project. Currently, I have a partial kit of a Horizon Mad Cat that I am researching, and these are these are teh sources. Also do a search for the BlackHawk on your search engine, and see what sites come up. I have done that too with my Mad Cat, and it has been helpful.
Hope that Helps!

I appreciate your thoughts and have been doing some research
Have quite alot of stuff from the web....including quite a few 3d models which can be useful.


many thanks dude!!!!

There is one other place you might have a lot of luck and that would be ANY of the mechwarrior PC games. The lastest on has some really good mech views in 3d. Its a great source for camo patterns too!
