BSC2021 Andym Crashed Battletech Dropship 15mm (last update 27/5/21)

Coming right along! I can't wait to see how the smoke turns out.

Love the tubing sticking out of the wreckage.

Lovely work mate - is Colin going to set fire to it for the photos? 

[Daeothar]

Awesome!

The nose of the craft, in profile, reminds me a bit of Colonial One from BSG (that's a good thing ).

And yes; this is going to be one hog of a project, but nothing as dear as that zeppelin, obviously. Although I'm thrilled to see you found the courage to pick up the perforator again... 

[Andym]

Thanks guys! 

Very cool. Its not complete without a full lance of destroyed mechs though... 

Actually....I DO have a smashed up 3d print of a Marauder! The blasted thing broke into a thousand pieces when it fell off a table! Resin for printing seems very fragile!!

We still never got around to doing a Hindenberg with the Zeppelin!

So, I've decided against the hex bases! None of the other terrain we use for big Battletech has them so it'll look out of place!....actually, thats just an excuse!....it was going to be a bugger to cut ALL the angles in the wood with a craft knife! This way it'll fit in with any other sci-fi 15mm we play in the future.







The painted flames are part of something else, I just wanted to see if I liked the colours.

The front of the ship will rest on the rocks at that side of the base, as if thats what's brought it to a stop.

[AKULA]

The new base looks good, and it sounds like you’ve made the right choice if it means it fits in with your other terrain

 

[marianas_gamer]

I think that you have made the right (and pragmatic) decision on the basing.

After a game like the last one I should soon be able to supply you enough wrecked mechs
I know of a commando with a bad headach
BASE IS LOOKING GOOD

Ha!.......ha!...........ha!

Listen, you had one lucky shot. That Spider of yours is walking around like that knight from Monty Pythons Holy Grail with a missing arm. 'Tis only a flesh wound'

I swear to god! That new game room of your has dice force field, that makes ALL my dice rolls shit!

Thanks for the support guys.

We call it the 'home ground advantage' , and I've got one too! At least, ever since my new game room was inaugurated. Although I fear that once that 'new smell' has completely worn off, the force field will be gone too...

You need to change the batteries on your secret Dice roll adjuster

So I've managed to get a wee bit more done.

The broken away engine pod now has some internal working and a couple of mouthwash caps for engine bells.








And the rest of the bases have now been cut...

[Daeothar]

Awesome !

I love the excellent detailing you always put in, and the bells look spot on 

[OSHIROmodels]

Loving it

Looking great
