I started working on the Fenris. The Mech is funny with its goatbeard, which doesn't show well in the pic, but rest assured - it's there.

The body reminds me of a moving-truck almost :) But seriously, looks great. Kinda like a Phantom mech...

TRO 3050 (Upgrades):
The Ice Ferret ... is the most heavily used medium OmniMech in the Wolf touman. Ironically it was supposed to be the Ice Hellion's answer to Clan Wolf's newly debuted Timber Wolf heavy OmniMech. ... Many of their warriors boasted that they would declaw the mighty Wolves ... Tired of the constant harassment, many Wolf units began challenging Ice Hellions for possession of their "Wolf Hunters". The next five years saw the Ice Hellions lose eighty percent of their Wolf Hunters ... The Wolves renamed the OmniMech the Ice Ferret after the Hellion's sole natural predator..."
TRO 3055:
The Phantom is the result of Wolf Clan's attempt to push the concept of a fast, medium-sized reconnaissance mech to its limits. The Phantom shares many details with the Fenris, but trades weaponry and armor for speed ... [it] faces a doubtful future with the Wolf Clan ... it is unlikely to become a major part of the Clan's arsenal.
