Hello, I made a lil zine!
Edit: And I just published it on itch: https://kikithegecko.itch.io/how-to-make-hex-maps-from-fabric

Feel free to send me a DM if you want one (or more) printed and assembled copies in exchange for shipping costs (I am located in Germany) + pay what you want.

Never have I ever: Played Mechwarrior (1989)

The robot is no longer remotely naked!

I actually got substantially further than this, including coloring the base sides, oil washing, adding a decal, and getting basing paste in place and drying. I should be able to finish it up tomorrow afternoon.

roughing in the dragonflies and the bottom of the ponds, and my first experimenting with stamps... buried under several layers of painting over and redoing it, because it's not easy and some of the stamps are not well thought out.

I've been working on a project with a few other folks to launch a painting-focused site for BattleTech fans. We're officially launched today!

https://mechpainters.org/

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

Frog-chan is finished! Prepped a couple areas on the Centurion for NMM, which is going to be extra wild with the right arm's OSL.

If I've fucked up the frog at this point, there's no solution but... THE DIP.

CW: Naked scenery, getting less naked with each post!

Slowly deciding on full color scheme for the piece, the foliage is all going to be purples, shooting out to red and blue, while the frog will be a Grünfrosch if I can manage to do the scheme right, and the mech is going to be largely yellows and browns, and I can use this stuff to practice using the new stamping stuff.

How I get my mechs painted: tearing random color schemes for other projects.

Trying to decide which purple and which yellow I want for my Legion Imperialis Imperial Guard army.

Polls to follow, since you can’t have a picture and a poll in the same post.

The subjects of my next mini diorama, and a shitload of basing bits. I've got a number of other minis, plus a collection of bases ranging from 35mm to uh... 6x4 inches.

Not so fresh from Japan, Super Robot Company has arrived, ready for painting!

Lil bug friend work in progress (NB, not an actual bug - i.e. a hemipteran, or a 'bug' in the sense of whatever smallish arthropod)
