Paint what you Got Update #4

    Looks like this will be the final update for the Paint what you Got 2025 Challenge, as today is the last day of the challenge.

House Marik - Marik Militia

Cyclops, Cougar, Griffin, Warhammer IIC, Sentinel

    Here it is! The gang is all here!

    The Mad Cat (Timber wolf) is basically done, just need to throw some colour on the base and varnish it. It is painted as Clan Jade Falcon. A metal Thor has appeared on my paint desk, it will also be part of Clan Jade Falcon. Once the Mad Cat is finished, so too will be the Intro Box! 

    I only have 10 mechs left, okay, I think like 4 or so more from a market place pick up awhile back. But I am interested in painting up the 10 mechs that I posted on the last post. Ten is a good number, I can add two more to Clan Jade Falcon to finish off a lance... I think Clan lances are usually 5 mechs? Then the remaining 8 can be two more lances or fill out the Great Houses to play Alpha Strike. 

    Looking up the points value for AS, most Houses need about 2 or 3 mechs to get to 250 PV, the standard game for AS.

    And now for something completely different, and more the same too.

Paint What You Got Update #3

     Continuing my quick descent into all things Battletech, here is what I should have posted a couple days ago.

House Steiner - Lyran Guard

Atlas, Banshee, Hunchback, Clint, Commando

I'll be writing up a page for all the Battletech stuff, breaking down the Battle Values for each lance and writing a bit about each house. If you are interested, stay tuned!

House Liao - House Ma-Tsu Kai

Jagermech, Trebuchet, Assassin, Hermes II, Catapult

    I only have two more mechs left from the Intro Box, then it's onto the beautifully crafted current line of Battletech mechs. Below I have the final Great Houses, House Marik, on the paint desk. The Mad Cat and Cyclops, are the two left. Not sure which those are? They have a neutral standing pose and a smaller base. Now you can see why I am excited to paint up the dynamically posed newer sculps!

    After the Great Houses are finished, I have all these remaining. ComStar, Clans or mercenary groups? I haven't decided yet. ComStar is basically the phone company of Battletech, which felt the duty to protect the knowledge and technology of humanity from being destroyed by war, later becoming splinted into Word of Blake. Maybe I'll just have to buy more Battletech mechs to do it all!

    My Battletech crusade continues on! I do have some variety on the way and the Paint What You Got Challenge 2025 Challenge is almost over. I only have till the end of February. I need to get cracking. I did 3D print some bits and models for my birthday. I should probably have a post about that as well.
