About every six months I take a big group shot of all of the painted units in my #Battletech collection. Estimation puts it at just over 800 painted pieces, not including the 28mm stuff. #paintedminiatures

Here's a Catapult based on this Jenn Ravenna piece for the HBS Battletech game! I love what the game has done for the series and this piece really stuck with me. If only I could put the mech warrior on it too! #nerdlings #paintingminiatures #battletech

I admit painting the Skulker had me worried, since doing this camo on the King Crab was a miserable experience. But painting such a small model was much more enjoyable. I didn't hate myself for daring to choose camo this time! Next, a Schrek PPC carrier. That will be more daunting. #battletech

A Howler 'Mech painted in an exotic biome/night camo pattern. The speckled, pointillist application is inspired by flecktarn camo. #battletech #paintingminiatures #miniatures #nerdlings

Doing some finishing touches on my Falcon Guards direct fire star. I'm going to have to start looking into detailing the bases more, but these are at least tabletop ready.

Inking time. Tried soulblight gray, but it didn't seem to be actually shading the gray, so I wiped it and used the Nuln Oil. Always a good bet. #Battletech #Mechwarrior #PaintingMiniatures #TTG #Warmongers

Retook this photo of Yen Lo Wang vs a customized Wolverine. Based on the art by Doug Chaffee for Mappack: Solaris VII Lets be honest, this is the REAL Yen Lo Wang paint scheme. Miss me with that rising sun junk. #battletech #mechwarrior #ttrpg #minipainting #miniatures #mecha

I replicated my Jade Falcon Rho Galaxy paint scheme onto the 100mm Mad Cat with some extra flair. Yes, I went with a flannel pattern on the legs instead of the standard check pattern.

Another friend for the Star Adders. This was a tough one to do because of the model itself. Lots of hard mold lines to clean up. Visit @ariesgamesandminis.bsky.social for your BattleTech needs. #minipainting #battletech #battletech

Here are my finished quads. I really like what I was able to do with the Goliath and the kitbashed Tarantula. The smaller two will be for a Hotspots campaign, with the goal of getting enough CBills to buy the Goliath.

New #battlemech batch finished! #Battletech #Mechwarrior #TTG #PaintingMiniatures I had planned to have the Atlas painted red with a black skull but that turned out to be... not nearly as cool as I had hoped. So I toned it down to gray. Still not great, but whatever, I don't even like these things.

My BattleTech kickstarter order finally arrived and past Kaiju really went all in, didn't they? This was the last big thing I ordered before I ended up long-term unable to work due to disability, a present to myself in the future for surviving this far And yes, I'm gonna queer up so many 'Mechs!🏳️‍🌈

All right, these guys are almost ready. Just need the basing. The Axman is the only really choice model out of this batch, but I'm glad I'll have the others in my 'mech "library" at least. #Battletech #Mechwarrior #PaintingMiniatures #TTG #Warmongers

My first #Battletech vehicle is now roughly basecoated with the "panel line" colors of this paintscheme. Next comes planning out the stripes that will turn this into the proper base for a Dazzle camo scheme.

Work in Progress: STG-3R Stinger Trying out a colour scheme for maybe putting on some mercs. Needs more depth on the red, but the canopy glass is good, I think #Battletech #MiniaturePainting

Made an iconic battlemech from battletech in #picoCAD, That being the Jenner! It's a very mobile and hard hitting compared to other light mechs. A goofy design, but fun to pilot! You got any favorite mech designs? Any other media is acceptable too! #battletech #battlemech #pixelart

Getting closer to June, and closer to #PrideMechParade Have you thought of what 'Mech and what pride flag you want to paint? I'm thinking a nonbinary Land-Air 'Mech myself! Looking for ideas? Discuss! #battletech #mechwarrior #ttrpg #minipainting #lgbtq #lgbtqia

Trans Krabs Bust Bigots!! The trans King Crab has become a bit of a positive meme in the BattleTech community. Symbolizing how hard we fight to do what's right, and how we don't give up willingly It's also my favourite 'Mech out there This one is both King and Queen, best of both things 💜

oh hey it's #RandomGameSaturday! The "2 player cooperative mode" seen on the cover of BattleTech for the Genesis/MegaDrive, where one player handled legs and the other handled weapons was quite novel, but awkward, and fun with a pal over a pint as you scrambled to communicate intent.
