Thanks Mates!  I'm pleased as punch with how she came out...and how relatively easy it was.  I write 'relatively' because it does get a bit tedious to do all of that outlining.  But I do it in 10 - 15 minute 'doses' so that my eyes dont go willy!

That said, the rest was a breeze and fun to pull off.  I know she's not that pristine pure black, off the assembly line' look, but I've always liked that slightly worn and grittier look.  I'm sure others can pull this off far better than me, but I'm very happy with my weathering skills so far.  I must credit all those PA projects I've done :D.

Some of the poses on the old lead minis makes conversions quite difficult, but I've been able to do at least small conversions on all of them so far.  I found the Stinger's to be the hardest to convert, but a simple head twist and then changing the stance should work out ok and provide some variety. 

More to come!

I found that on the small amount I had and gave up as it wasn't worth the effort  lol

Keep going though  8)

Totally Mate...  But I was surprised at what an armor leg repose can do to mix it up.  And I do think it has a synergistic effect, the ones with the least conversions dont look as regular anymore

You're right of course but I'm far too impatient for that  lol

Nice, shame the Crusader is so...weird scaled in that version.  Good choice of Mechs --- a bit on the heavy side, but plenty of fire power and punishment.

I actually just pulled the list from the Tales of the Black Widow Company :D.  I really like the lances as they have a nice selection of classic mechs, although one too many Stingers..... lol.  As I collect a few more and take the BWC in my own direction I'll change up the lances a bit I think.

The books always included many mechs which really sucked ass in the game...making it pretty hard to agree with some of their choices.  lol  Swapping out mechs is as simple as "oh, it was blown up in the last engagement...".

Done and done. Keep going TBC (cheers from Solaris)
