Gladius' 'Mech Minis
« on: 31 December 2024, 19:11:24 »
It's been a while since I posted anything, mostly since I'm not much of a photographer.  But I have been painting and wanted to share what I've completed.

First up are a Panther and Jenner to complete a lance of my 3rd Benjamin Regulars.








Next, I painted up a Vindicator in my Warrior House Imarra scheme.  I used some water effects for the footprint puddle to try to really drive home the idea that they're battling on a muddy field.




Next up are a pair of 11th Lyran Guard 'Mechs.








And finally, I just finished up a Crucible, which I painted in Iota Galaxy colors from Clan Wolf.

I really dig the basing -- particularly on the Crusader. Did you use a water effect?

Thank you!  Yes, I used a water effect.  It was supposed to be frozen like the Zeus, but I messed with it for too long and left ridges.  It looked so good as waves though that I decided to just go with it.

Great looking mechs. I recall that fantastic looking Benjamin Cyclops from last year, the Panther and Jenner fit in flawlessly ... you knocked that scheme out of the park.  Agree with Abou on your basing too, really nice work.

Thanks for all the comments guys!  I'm glad that you enjoy my work!

Speaking of... I got an airbrush for Christmas and finished the first model I got to use it on!  Here is a Catapult for Warrior House Imarra.
