Several friends of mine made massive investments in the recent KS Battlemech campaigns. There was a bit of moaning about having so many mechs to paint when the waves of boxes started arriving. I suggested they bring me some units and I would help paint them. For my gift shop submission I present the polarizing, loved or hated - Urban mechs.
For one friend we have a random scheme using his current unit palette and for the other we have a unit in my approximation of a blue digital urban cammo. First was painted using contrast paints and washes. The unit was painted using Vallejo paints and stippling. Not quite as crisp as a true digital cammoflage pattern but overall I like it. Both finished with a vallejo deck tan drybrush for weathering.
70 Points.
I am assuming these smaller mech's are treated as 28mm so correct if needed.

These would count for the stompy mech's duel.
From Millsy: Lovely work on The Maharani Tom, especially the colour choices for the turban and tunic. Two lighter colours don't always work well together but you've really nailed it this time! Those walkers really take me back to the glory days of stomping about hex maps, heat sinks aglow and rocket pods blazing. 28mm seems about right so we'll score them that way. Another 70 points for your tally mate!
The Maharani is excellent! More fearsome ladies please!
ReplyDeleteLovely colours on the Maharani's cloths and skin!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant bots and Maharani is superb. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThat Maharani is really lovely. Nice mechs too.
ReplyDeleteThanks all. More ladies are a given this challenge. Foundry skin tone set has a lot of well defined triads for various ethnic groups.
