Battletech-My First Painted Models
« on: 05 September 2022, 08:54:42 AM »
I invested in Catalyst Games Battletech Alpha Strike as I thought it would be a good game for my son and I to play, he's 11.

Well I finally got around to painting the first two lances, no official allegancies just me painting mechs.

Nice work on those Frostie.
Just add some light coloured numbers/decals  to them & they'll pop out.

Well done.  I like the grey / grown two tone.

Great work!  8)

I especially like the desert horizon scheme as well. In fact, that has always been one of the schemes I'll be using on my own BT project, but with a bit more blue in the top half (it's supposed to be a camouflage pattern for use in an open sand desert).

Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...
