I will only be charging $500.00 for this one since I will be working with an existing Mech master pattern, not starting from scratch. You can go ahead and send your pledges to my Paypal account now if you like. PM me if you don't already have my PP info.Changes will include:New head/new lower arms/hands/sword/new left shoulder pad & elbow shield/new knee armor/new torso guns. Torso/codpiece armor design is different. Thigh portion of the leg is now rounded. Move the shoulder sockets out, because the arms collide with the legs (especially the left arm). Anything else?
Could you maybe possibly do something about the fact that the existing mini's lower legs are massively out of scale with the rest of the mini, and the existing art? Turning those oversized kneepads into the rounded versions shown in the Red Reaper art might help, but that doesn't address the fact that the lower leg is thicker than the thigh. They need to be scaled down but maybe 20%.
Interviewer: Since you’ve stopped making art, how do you spend your time?Paul Chan Breathers: Oh, I’m a breather. I’m a respirateur. Isn’t that enough?
I have already started on this one and will bust it out by end of week.
So PP sent.....Super late though sorry guys :-[
I received Invalid Effort's payment of $30.00, so this guy is fully Fundicated! O0 Still working on it though, I guess having it done by the end of the was overly optimistic. :P Next week fo sho tho! :D
Have the vouchers gone out on this one yet? I've got a shopping cart full of mechs over on the IWM website, but I was holding out until this voucher came through. ^-^
Vouchers will be sent out tomorrow evening.
I expect to have it finished in early October. Life has prevented much progress on this. :(
Can we get an update now that it's early October? O:-)
I'm finishing this guy up today (finally), photos soon!
When will then be now?... ;)
OK, per the QCC, got the heed shaved doon a bit, changed the neck piece, attached the feet to the shins and thighs to shins, added a hand guard on the Left hand and filed the hips down to get the legs closer to the pelvis. Number of pieces 6.
IWM is waiting to hear from the company who owns the Battletech copyrights as to weather they are going to renew IWM's licensing to produce miniatures. As soon as that happens we will get moving on the next batch of Battletech awesomeness (or not)...
:o What!!!I don't see why they wouldn't renew.
Yep, the legs are interchangeable, though you will need to shave the original ball joints down to get them closer to the hips.
What's the word on the release of this bad boy?
It's been very, very naughty and they won't release it until it learns how to behave. :D
Or he encountered a King Arthur Mech and lost his arms and legs but claims "It's just a flesh wound!" :D
You do realize I read this thread and that I'm crazy?Tempt me enough and I will find a way to canonize that scene :D (if I ever find a way to get it past editing without getting nuked ;))
Awesome! Thank you for the update. Have a great time at origins
Anyone have this one yet?
