well after digging all the old Battletech stuff out of the closet this week, I finally decided to let my minis see the light of day once again, so I also thought I would take some pics and post them here.

Most of these are original castings in pewter from the Ral Partha days... and some are mishmash of parts I put together for gaming.





Clan Wolf Summoner "Thor" in ridgeline camo






Jade Falcon Timber Wolf "MadCat"




Clan Ghost Bear MadDog "Vulture"

[Dagger6T6]

Phoenix Hawk IIc now sporting Kurita markings - this is a regular Phoenix Hawk mini that I modified into a IIc config





Captured Madcat retrofitted with Marauder arms and now with Kurita markings

[Dagger6T6]

Behemoth factory fresh in gray camo pattern





Colossus - this one is modeled nearly from scratch, made of spare parts from model airplane kits etc. Clan assault mech legs are the only real miniature mech parts used I think. This one I based off the Solaris VII "Bossman"

I will get to work putting the decals I ordered from FPG onto the Grimm Reaper Company mechs and snag some pics this weekend. In the mean time here is my Clan Wolf Madcat in general duty paint scheme.

Love the detail in the painting! and the sculpting itself is nice... looks like the minis have come a long way since those early sculps

Very nicely done Rob! Are you over at CBT in the mini section too?

I'm about. 3/4 of the way through the Grimm Reaper Company's command lance decal work. I'll post them tonight or tomorrow sometime

Thanks! Yeah I'm over in the CBT forums as well, quite a few other places (campaign blogs & such). Been painting Clan and ComGuard mechs like a mad man getting ready for my next campaign....Tukayyid. Will be using the Quick Strike rules from the Strat ops book...can't praise them enough. Quick strike lets each player run 15-12 mechs/tanks/battle armor squads in the same time it takes to run a single mech playing regular BT. But that story is for another day.

Got to throw Props to the OP: Dagger. Love the detail that you put into your clan mechs...nice job reproducing the original color images of those Clan Omnis.

[Mchawkeye]

This is making me want to strip my mechs down and paint them properly instead of the quick route I took.

Damn you all; I do not have time for this!

I just got my first minis about a month ago, and I just got confirmation my box set has shipped but here are some photos of my new minis. Remember, this are my first minis ever, so they are not that good...







Sorry about the varying sizes!

[Sten Yorgenson]

Are the Marauders actually the Marauder II minis? I remember the old Marauder minis having much slenderer ACs (they used to bend if you just looked at them). I will have to get out my minis and take a look, of course they are all so old they are lead.

[Mason Grimm]

Forgive the lack of clarity and lighting. I really wanna take these back to Psycho's house and get shots with his light/scene box and proper camera. These were taken with an iphone in an Otterbox case so I'm guessing not so clear but they are the best you'll get for a while

Grimm Reaper Company Command Lance



Mech #1 (Commander's Vehicle)





Commander's Bodyguard



I love Marauders!!!



No I mean I REALLY love Marauders!



I've still got 2 other lances to do... Support Lance and Recon Lance yaaaaaaaaaay
