Snord's Irregulars

 Today we have a couple of mechs from the Snord's Irregulars boxed set I painted for Gian.

The Highlander is Rhonda's own ride, the other one is a very colourful frankenmech.

Battletech infantry and a couple of mechs

 These are the latest Battletech minis I finished for my gaming group, it is nice to be playing Battletech again in Italy with the people I got in the game with.

We had half of a big game yesterday, a classic 3050 clan invasion scenario on the outskirts of Luthien between Clan Smoke Jaguar and the Draconis Combine.

These miniatures didn't take part in the game, but might get involved in future ones.

More Battletech mechs

 This is the last chunk of mechs I have done for Gian, some of them are refurbishments, others were painted from scratch.

I'm done with this project for now, but more Battletech minis will come for sure.

Some more Battletech Mechs

 This is the second batch of Mechs I completed for Gian, a few more are almost done, I guess we'll have another Battletech post next week.

These are a mix of old Ral Partha/Iron Wind Metals and more recent Catalyst ones.

Back to Battletech

It looks like I'm back to painting Battletech. My friend Gian has asked me to paint a bunch of mechs for a tournament he'll be attending in January, plus a bunch more random ones.

I'm taking my time with this lot, I completed the ones he needed more urgently and the rest will come in due time.

For now I finished 7 clan mechs for him, one in a non descript grey livery, the rest in Clan Ghost Bear colours.

Birthday present

 This time I have a trio of Warzone second edition figures I painted for my friend Felè's birthday.

I might have spoken of this in the past, but I like to paint minis from friend's stash as a birthday present, it is better than buying them figures, because it is a dent in the pile that any wargamer would definitely appreciate.

For Felè, my old times Warzone buddy it had to be some Bauhaus miniatures, he has mostly played this faction in our Warzone career.

In the specific, they are some second edition Bauhaus Vulkan Battlesuits, really nice figures, a little bit of a paint to assemble, especially the grenade cage on the top, which, after many very frustrating attempts, I decided to replace with one of my making. My version looks more rugged, but it suits the WWI style of these guys.

RPG character

 I'm not doing commission painting anymore (mostly), except for a few things here and there for friends.

This is the figure that one of my player's use as his D&D character. Its left arm had fallen off, so I took it in for repairs and while I was at it, gave it a few touch ups and highlights.
