My minis
« on: 26 January 2011, 20:01:58 »
Obviously my last thread killed the forum, so let's see if I can go 2 for 2.

The first mini is a Crusader with some Battlemaster arms, all of it reseen. The paint is supposed to be Galahad stables colors, but with some heavy wear and tear, because this is a "Ghost mech" returned to haunt the Blakists.

Next is a Defiance in Lyran Guards colors.

And the last two are part of a lance of mechs that I made to teach myself how to perform a WWII tank camo scheme. They were primed a dark gray, painted all white, then washed with a light gray. The base for these is actually being completed as I'm posting, I just didn't feel that messing with the paper mache then the camera was smart :P

I knew this day would come! The day of the stapler men has arrived!

A Crusader with Beemer arms looks damn fine. Paint jobs all look just as nice!

Thanks folks. The Shad suffered pretty bad in the hands of it's previous owner, the paint was chipped to all hell and the gun was broken off, so I decided to use a Reseen Shad's gun for this one. Fits better on this fig than the Reseen IMO.

It's strange the difference a Pair of arms can make to a minis Feel.


Love the Defiance.

Indeed, excellent idea to use that reseen gun. Nice paintjobs too.  :)

I really like what you did with the Shadow Hawk!  The way that the cannon sits low and the tube launcher on the other side makes it look like a pretty good representation of the SHD-12C model from TRO:3085.  Good Stuff!
