7th Donegal Guards - CSO 2015 Diorama
« on: 05 August 2015, 05:47:28 »
So for this years Diorama, I painted 7th Donegal Guards.  I had a whole backstory, named characters, the works for the unit.  On of the other things they did was use Solaris-style running lights to create glowing runes on their units (well, the command lance) to intimidate the opposition and play up a persona.  Here's some shots from the Con that just went live on CSO.  I also have some "studio" photos waiting to be released on my backgrounds as well.

I want that highlander!

I'm like a hunter of peace. One who chases the elusive mayfly of love... or something like that.

Love the hand painted runes, and you really pushed up the contrast with these. However, I think we're short one mech image, here... ;)

That hint of purple on the bases is wicked by the way. It goes really well with the scheme.

 My hate for you is strong! Not really, I'm glad they went to a good home.

Hi, great looking 'mechs! But I have to ask cause I'm building my Highlander now... How did you work the legs to flex like that with the jump jets behind the thighs?!? I can't see how to do anything but a straight leg unless I shave down those jump jets...

The pistons on the backs of the thighs are meant to be trimmed down as necessary for posing.

Not enough people do shootists. I find it a beautiful 'Mech. Awesome job, very inspirational.
