Shortly after my previous post about BEX, my merc company folded due to a lack of funds.

I took the opportunity to install BTA and give it a try. I love the depth, I love the details, but I'm really struggling with the lack of a cohesive art style. I'm finding it pulling me out of my suspension of disbelief.

Has anyone else had that difficulty? Will I outgrow it with time?

Ah, yeah. Not sure what to tell you about that. People wanted more portraits, so the BTA team added in the portrait loader mod, and it's been loaded up over the years by various people without regard to artistic consistency. That said, aside from special pilots (kickstarter backers and ronin), you can customize your pilot portraits. So if you want to, you could choose to only recruit customizable pilots and change their portraits to only things that work for you.

Can't help you with mech portraits, sorry.

Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate it.
