Two Archers leaving the paint shop. One with Jamie Wolf’s gold on blue scheme. #battletech

Weird little unit, speedpaints worked really well on it. Blitzkrieg emerges from the paint shop. #battletech

My dismay at discovering there isn’t actually a Prime variant of the Grand Titan did not stop me from painting a Prime variant of the Grand Titan. #battletech

Hammerhead painted up in its Sea Fox colors. Joined by another Sea Fox unit. #battletech

Another MadCat/Timber Wolf leaves the factory. #battletech

Battlemaster wrapped up. Tried some beachfront basing and cockpit jeweling. #battletech #minipainting

It’s a new age! Hawks need not stay in the shadows, they can be… Sunshine Hawk #battletech #carebears #dealwithit #bouncinghereandthereandeverywhere

Two more Riflemen left the paint shop. #battletech

NCC-3052D Turkinaprise and landing party #startrek #battletech #battletrek

New batch of #battletech units out of paint and ready for action. Scorpion, Jagermech, Turkina, Whitworth, Vulcan, Timberwolf, and Dire Wolf Tried to make the Turkina look like a Star Trek ship with limited success (behold the NCC-3052 Turkina-prise)

And lo, the trailer did drop: www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2... #murderbot

Some official and less than official battlefield support #battletech

Rifleman and Battlemaster out of the paint shop, ready for duty. #battletech

Detailed lining on the Battlemaster and ocean caustics laid down on the Rifleman. Next up smaller details and then the gilding. #battletech

Got some color started on a Battlemaster and another Rifleman. Rifleman will get an attempt at underwater ocean caustics, Battlemaster linework is about 25%, and they’ll both get gilded canopies. #battletech

Snowpocalypse gave time to paint some buildings from my backlog. Looking forward to deploying these in a game. #battletech

Not Battletech, but painted up a print of a spaceship from the Bobiverse, turned out pretty good.

New mechs coming online. A few old Cicadas and a crew of Bombards. #battletech

Got to wear Santa hats and scratch the new paint jobs in an Alpha Strike game today. There was much rejoicing. And also a sand crawler that decided, fortunately, that we were not the mechs it was looking for. #battletech

Rifleman and Executioner finally ready to join their buddies. Using actual gold leaf for the Rifleman cockpit turned out great along with the custom Rifleman arms. #battletech

Santa’s little helpers #battletech Santa hats fresh off the Prusa

Got to play these in Alpha Strike. The big one I proxied as a Turkina Z, and the small one’s were Carrion Crow Primes. Lots of fun playing them as a flock. Just two of the little ones made it to victory though. #battletech

Whipped up a Gang of Turkinas for Thanksgiving. #battletech (Thanks to Hardware Studios for the Jade Turkey STL - intended for resin it still turned out pretty good FDM printing on a Prusa Mk4)

Gold cockpits installed, panel lining started. #battletech

Rifleman and executioner getting closer. #battletech

Painting continues. Still haven’t decided which direction I like better. Starting from white and filling in dark areas is a bit easier to visualize panels. But starting from dark and adding white is easier to get the brush into areas needing paint. #battletech

Paint time again - trying out starting from a light base vs a dark base. Rifleman and Executioner #battletech

Update: resin Rifleman RAC5 and Medium Laser arms (RFL-8D) came in and looking awesome. Time to paint! #battletech

One of the best things I think I saw posted to Mastodon was a simple phrase: “all unsolicited advice is criticism.” Is criticism sometimes warranted? Maybe. But it really changes when you want to give it. It was also amazing because so many people there MELTED DOWN over it.

who knew the Rifleman had such gains in em? Prototyped FDM printed upgrades for the RFL-3N to an RFL-8D - moving up to RAC5 and ER Medium Lasers. Few tweaks then going to resin. #battletech

Locust swarm online #battletech

Thunderbolt just finished up paint and joins the pack #battletech

This graph is astonishing. The people that bang on about “natural birth” and “women have been doing this forever without help” need to be forced to stare at this until their eyes water.

Well, Bluesky, it has been a while...Shall we start with Ebon Jaguar from Battletech? #battletech #mecha #mechwarrior #procreate

I wanted to explore the idea of a version of #Battletech where the technology gap between Clan and IS mechs is visually apparent. Along those lines, if IS mechs are based on 80s armored vehicles, what if the Clan mechs are based on turn of the 21st century stuff? So! Here is a F-22 -inspired Madcat.

Commando and Locust fresh out of the paint shop #Battletech

Picked up a #Battletech Inner Sphere Command Lance while in Sweden. Tried for a NATO splinter camo scheme, I think it turned out well.

Splinter NATO camo rolling out to the rest of the armor. Some paint tests on FDM printed minis (with custom design/printed base) bringing up the rear. #battletech

Testing out some Splinter NATO Camo and heat discolored barrel on a Demolisher #battletech

Wrapped up the Arctic Cheetah so he can join his buds on the hex hills. #battletech

Game day #battletech
