Night Gyr in my merc colors, which I tell people is "Votoms Inspired" but really just becomes "that's a ScopeDog" when its something with a silhouette like the Night Gyr's #battletech #minipainting
The archer pilot watched in horror as the c-bill signs fired from his launchers flied past the target #battletech
Tomorrow I need to ride my bicycle, then I can see about laying down some more ground paste here where holes open up, if necessary, adding basing details, and adding the SLDF logos. Then it'll be matte finish all over and gloss finish with a brush for spots I want shiny.
The Trebuchet TBT-9N is a solid 3130s upgrade to the old, reliable medium missile boat #BattleTech

A retrotech mech inspired by the Rook and the Locust IIC, good for building in hidden separatist workshops on star league worlds. Features an armored cockpit as otherwise no one would want to pilot it
A lot of damage potential for >500BV but will probably die in one hit #battletech
Lyrans: This Kit Fox is such a dangerous machine. We have named it after a god!
Clans: yeah so its almost literally called the puppy dog #battletech
Does the second hit point of the AS Savannah Master serve any purpose other then slowing down the game as players have to keep track of which tiny resin figurine has a reduced movement speed #battletech
Local racecar driver stuck in battle traffic #battletech

Double-seater locust for rising merc companies that have run out of tanks and rifles to pass around. Cozy cockpit and synchronized mindlinks good mech for lovebirds #battletech
#battletech fanbase: "why are you making the fedsuns fight a clan when did that ever happen"
me: "why *wouldnt* the clans pick a fight with the fedsuns they arent going to stop just because they conquered earth"
fanbase: "the fedsuns would be the last target that the clans would attack"
me: "which is why they have to hold the line"
fanbase: "your writing is terrible"
me: "but at least it get stompy robot battles started"
A circu 3005 timberwolf, hastily refitted by the wolf dragoons to look less conspecious #battletech
#battletech writers: "look at how dangerous these warships are"
me: "but what if i attacked the death star using a marauder instead of an xwing"
fanbase: "noo you cant just board the warship your mech would get blown up before it gets there"
me: "but the cover art of Strategic Operations is cool"
fanbase: "battlemechs work terribly in space"
me: "which is why no one plays with the current space combat rules"
fanbase: "the aeros will scrape your mech off the warship"
me: "its okay my marauder has an lb-x"
fanbase: "so you are going to jump from a moving dropship to a moving warship"
me: "that clan warship is about to obliterate all the fedsun mechs from orbit i have to at least try"
Fresh out of the wash and cure station: a Mad Cat Mk2 and a Bullshark.
While I have no interest in playing at the moment, I’ll fully admit that seeing beautifully painted mechs from you wonderful peeps has me wanting to try my hand at a change of pace. :D
Thankfully it isn’t hard to find some fantastic STLs on MMF, so I can easily paint some for very little buy in. <3
A >200BV vtol for commanders trying to fill out their forces #battletech
20t is too small for a tank so i made this thing instead i even drew art for it #battletech
"dude why do the old guys hate the star league so much sure they might have conquered our planet a few decades back but have you seen how cool their propaganda looks" #battletech
After a few months of playing only Alpha Strike , prepping for a tournament, we’re back to #battletech Classic. My preferred format. Played a 15kBV ea skirmish.
Question was asked on a painting thread this week: Masking fluid sucks, what can you use instead that's reusable and won't ruin paint or be a huge problem to get off?
The answer is Silly Putty, y'all. Easy to get, easy to use, and reusable for quite a while before the paint mixed into it makes it less useful.
