Here is a Scavenger mech I designed for a comic I'm working on. Now all I have to do is design a front... Please crits welcomed.
The larger arms lift I-beams and heavy debris while the smaller arms crab anything that could be of value and feed it into the mouth that extends from the under side of the main body. This feeds the scavenged material to the large holding tank on its back. One medium autocannon is mounted on the head for defense.

Pretty cool design, would love to see it modeled in 3d.
One minor thing, maybe move the legs a tad back. The way the mech is designed looks to be very rear heavy, so moving the legs back would stabilize it.
Also the larger arms would have to extend to pick things up. Maybe add a little hydraulic mechanism.
Can't wait to see the finished piece. |

Looks pretty good. However when I think of a scavenger I think of a smaller lankier mech. Something that can move fast. Your design seems very compact, why not try lengthening it a bit?
