I love them all. Your brothers Grizzly is a jawdropper if it was done on a single go. Most of my Legos take 4 months to finish. The Patcom was a record with only 3 weeks.
I love your I-War Legos. All of them are instantly recognisable and at such small scale that is very good.

About the nose…
Long answer: I based my model on a NSO-929x Dreadnaught Class Corvette. Then I enhanced the size of the thrusters to I-War 2 NSO-1950a Tachyon Class Advanced Patcom level. All was fine until I had to design the mid section. That is when I found out, that I kicked myself in the groin because there are no Lego parts to properly emulate the flat and wide saucer mid section I wanted. So I had to decrease the Command section width not to murder the saucer section 🙁
Short answer: I agree. The nose is long/Not wide enough.
About the Thruster:
I wanted it to be big, complicated. Rickety?? Well…mmmm…. we can say that it was intentional haha 😛

Wow! Many replies in such short time.
1)Yes, I was shocked to check the internet and not find a single I-War Lego Moc (My own creation) out there. It was a huge inspiration to remedy this.
2)I used LDD (Lego Digital Designer) software.
3)Im happy you like my Lego Bushwacker. This is the 2001 Mechwarrior 4 version and Im damn proud of it. I spent 4 months getting the shapes and angles right.
4)IronDuke, I would love to see your Lego if you have any pictures. How can I share my Patcom with you? Should I upload it to Photobucket?
5)Chessking. Same as above: Do you have pictures of your Lego Mocs?
6)I wanted to love the Mechwarrior online version. I really wanted, but my eyes cant take it 🙁 Its shape is so different from the one I grew up with (Mechwarrior 3-4 and Mechcommander 1-2), that it makes me sad to see this new design.
7) You gave up too soon IronDuke. The balance of MWO at the moment is the best I have ever seen in an online game.
I play a 35 Ton Jenner2C and I always go up against 100 Ton mechs and if I don’t suicide, but do what I am supposed to (Spot enemy, TAG-NARC enemy mechs), my team can devastate enemy mechs with my contribution.
So What do you guys think of my Patcom design? Does it go well with the “existing” designs?
Edit: Trying to attach a pic directly:
Please note:
-The colors of specific parts of the ship were limited by Lego parts I could get my hands on. ( Very limited )
-The weapon modules are still not finished. What you see now are just placeholder weapons I quickly added so I could say, that the ship hull is finished 😉
