Battletech: This is Johns fault!
Well this is a one week project, I best get started.
Okay so first of all this is Johns’s fault and Cad from 4Ground/FactoruM. I have had a soft spot for Battletech since I was a teen and that was at least a couple of decades ago. John reminded me of how cool the mechs were with his lovely work recently on OTT and then he pointed out that there are Patreons for 3D printing files. I signed up for one (Polygon Master Works) and started to look into printing them out,
Then Cad and the guys at FactoruM decided to post up an event to play which would be pitched at a just starting level, perfect as I don’t know how to play and will be playing for the first time at the event.
That event is only a week away and I need to get 8 mechs built for my two lances by then, sooooo I started printing yesterday and got the bases printed and filler done as well as the first four mechs printed and primed ready for paint.
This morning I woke up early for no particular reason and so cracked on with the bases getting them done in around 2-3 hours. Next, I need to start on the mechs that are ready.
I imagine contrast paints will be my friend to give me the chance of completing everything by Thursday evening so I can head down Friday with the miniatures complete.
FIller applied and left to dry overnight
Basilicanum Grey with a little medium to thin it down, tufts, Akhelian Green followed by Ardcoat when dry. Abaddon Black the bases edge.
