Looks good too without it.
About the JM6-A...that is the LRM15 right? Do you plan to make one of the tubes look a bit different or replace it with some targeting optic or a flashlight? Might look interesting with it.

JM6-G...what is that beside the barrel?

[Karl Streiger]

thats the mag - no clue were to place it.
the LRMs are a mock - had a better looking version. but the feature of this combination is hardpoint sizes.
the AC5 can ve swapped for PPC or LRM, the AC2 for large laser and both for either ac20 or gauss.

[Nesutizale]

Is there space behind the barrel? Would be a good access point for easy reloading but with the danger of the mag beeing easy to hit.

Has been a long road

pressed into production:

[Karl Streiger]

While not exactly battletech but close enough

It's from the Relevation universe, going Kickstarter in march, if you didn't- check it out

If course also some other BT stuff,

Yep a padilla, but could be a bulldog on wheels as well


You know it might not make sense but all of my vehicles (produced by StratoMinis) will have exchangeable turrets, at least that's the plan,

So the small turret of that guy will fit on the wheeled vehicles as well.

[Karl Streiger]

well somehow i have to much time without answering post every day... anyhow - say hello to the Felix:

Oh didn't updated this for a long time:

Tolle Modelle Karl die passen perfekt zu den neuen Miniaturen ;)und sehen endlich auch militärisch aus ,weil alles was nicht von Loose kam ,war ja oft mehr als bedenklich

[Karl Streiger]

Maybe this is one of my lasts posts in this forum.... I don't think I will ever play MWO again, I try to keep in check with those few I didn't found on other sites.

anyhow, I know that Mr. Bullock will never read this. And by Blake I'm still the Shadow Knight and spreadsheet warrior I was before and still a part of me is still angry for some unlucky development step MWO did take (yep HSR, I will not explain it, again)

So instead of salt its time for me to say thank you. Thank you to the last remnants of this great community (you latecomers don't count) and somehow even to say thank you the CO of PGI... believe me it hurts to say it - really It was your weapon visuals on the CN9-AH that forced my hand to start in 3d modeling.

Anyhow, I finished 15 - 18 vehicles last year, when I would have charged them all I would have had a ROI of what I invested in MWO, but this year might be more productive..... In talk with 5 different miniature game creators currently.

and now another barrier is passed:

Fantastic progress! Amazing to see how your models have grown over time. Great work, and good luck with your prospective jobs!

Thanks.
It has quite a journey and if I pitty something about it, then its only that I embark so late.


Finished a long standing project the Epona (to be found on Cgtrader- in all variants)



Also tried some options for better presentation of miniatures
This is the Pommel, a comissioned work for Revelations Skirmish.
This is actually the print model - those details are visible on the 4k printer they are made.

[Karl Streiger]

So done a Galleon, as usually this is the 3d printable object


I know, those of you with a printer already have the HBS rip-off or the pre-thingiverse debacle copy.
Anyhow here you get a better looking one.
Variants might follow

Startet with the Vanquisher

[Karl Streiger]

We are the Hands of the Master.
We are the Will of the Blessed Blake.
We are the saviors of humanity.

DENN WIR STERBEN NIE

[Karl Streiger]

Well - lots of more work (and a bunch of other projects) - did happen in the last 3 months:
Excerpt:




The Vanquisher is finished (ok not competely working on a castable version with a ton of weapon options)



Printable HBS Scorpion - with much more details.


What was supposed to be a BattleTech vehicle will now see production for the CAV universe.



3d printable Gallant (from the HBS game as well) - not a rip to make it clearer.

[Karl Streiger]

well, we all knew that the Vanquisher would have been the better KingCrab

[Storming Angel]

As a 3D modeller myself, im getting inspired to create battletech stuff (have wanted to do for awhile now, but i had ship-fever and other models that needed doing).

I usually focus on ww2, ww1, pre-dread ships, modern tanks, warhammer models, spaceships and other random things.

But these are very nice models, love the renders as well very well done.

Not sure what ill focus on for battletech, ill probs go for things that aren't really modelled (as i could model newer stuff to be fair).
