1/72 Battletech-like dioramas of mine
« on: 03 December 2013, 07:38:49 »
I have no idea what tech level in BT these could represent. There is a biomechanoid there too, which I presume could quialify as extremely rare, experimental lostech element. The walkers  and soldiers come from the set I described here.
Scale is 1:72.











And main heroes in comparison to my WIP Timber Wolf:



I have no idea how do depict this beast yet. And I still have Rifleman and Archer (unseens) in the same scale waiting to be started.

Those look very nice, and given the scale I would either stat those as ultralight 'Mechs or ProtoMechs.

Awesome art.

I'd would be more to think these walker are more Battle Armor scale than Ultralight BattleMechs to be honest with you.  Rocket Launchers and Light Machine guns.

Thank You.

From the moment I got them I had a problem with fitting them in CBT scale. I tend to think about them as primitive "pre-Mech's", perhaps not even using myomer technology etc. Kind of early Terran Alliance walker technology ;)
