Never actually played a game of Battletech since i know no one who plays it or wants to :lol: However, i love to paint models :)

Ive currently been working on a small Lance that consists of a Catapult, Raptor II, Madcat MkII and an Atlas:
Catapult:

Raptor WiP: To try and show its ability to Cloak i decided to make it look like it could take on the colours of other mechs as its bloody hard to make things look invisible while painting ;) But im not entirely sold on it yet so it may change xD

Was recently given a bunch of old B-Tech minis (Said he only plays at my place, so may as well put them to use).

Spent some time organizing my Inner Sphere mechs so see what I had painted by Faction and where the new guys could fit in (once I painted them to match).

The line up...From top to bottom, Comstar, Kurita, Davion, Liao, Marik, Stiener

Really good job all. I don't know why but my personal preference is for the rougher paint jobs. Something that looks like it was painted by a tech in the field with a can of spray paint.

Here is the first lance of The Walking Wounded, my first mercenary company. It’s entirely composed of unseens painted in their original colors from their respective animes.

The running Marauder is actually kit-bashed from the remains of a Marauder and a Marauder II that took a leap off a balcony and learned that it couldn’t fly.

And my strike lance, made up of mechs from Fang of the Sun Dougram. The missile launchers on the Shadowhawk, Griffin and Thunderbolt had to be replaced with brass tubing but all in all I'm happy with it.

Finally, I have a Catapult that I painted for the miniature exchange over at Lords of the Battlefield. It’s the Con-exclusive Catapult K4. I magnetized the weapons pods to make them interchangeable and used expanding foam and a very battered unseen Locust to give it a dramatic base. It represents the Blue Star Irregulars attack on Liao while working for House Davion.

I have a second company with the rest of the unseens but repainting them has been delayed while I finish my Lexington Combat Group battalion for our local campaign.

I like that conversion on the catapult. Just started painting my mercs, once I have some lances completed I'll throw them up here, but there is some quality work, you guys are all awesome!
