4th Davion Guards--more light mechs in the fold!
« on: 12 December 2024, 16:02:14 »
Hello all!

First Mercs KS mechs added to my formations.  Here are five light mechs to craft Striker/Recon lances and the like.  Just more options for my growing battalion!



Javelin



Firestarter



Ostscout



Spector



Special shout out to God and Davion, who helped me with where to place the striping on the Javelins.  Thanks for the ideas!

Cheers all!

Outstanding!

I love the "DARK" blue used w/ the "OLD" Davion Guards scheme.

A lot of the time I see the original scheme in a lighter blue.

I'm a fan of the Clan/CivilWar era version myself but this one really POPS for me.

Amazing work. Good to see the DBoG colours on something other than assault 'mechs.

Great looking unit, MarauderD!

So tell me - what's the grand plan for the Battalion? Including some vees and battle armour, hopefully?

Yes sir.  I do think that the vees (hover and BA Support) might have a completely different paint scheme--alpine/forest generic camo.  I don't really care for the IS gorilla suit mini, so I'm hoping CGL follows up on their plans to release the Grenadier/Kanazuchi in plastic later this year.  Thinking 2 squads of Grenadiers and maybe 2 squads of Cavaliers would do it.  I'd be sorely tempted by a plastic Infiltrator Mk 2 mini, but I haven't heard of any plans to release that unit. 

Long story short, Mechs are still what motivates me to paint, but all those Vees in my pile of shame will definitely make it to the paint table at some point.

Looking solid, Marauder D.  Great placement of stripes, and strong agree with your choice of blue - very nice.
