Don't know if I ever shared Bocchi the Urbanmech. Painted her, and a bunch of other BattleTech mechs, to introduce a couple friends to miniature wargaming through Flames of Orion. No one showed any interest whatsoever, so we ended up never playing. #battletech

First half of Aces painted. The decision to go in hard on fast cavalry and crusader-favored heavy laser technology are serious flavor wins, though the choice to put the Rifleman C 2 and a bunch of "IIC" mechs in the same box is a bit funny. #battletech #minipainting

Test model for the Jade Falcon opfor from the Scouring Sands box for Battletech: Aces. I decided to go with Vau galaxy. Not quite convinced with the nmm... #battletech #minipainting

Summoner heavy omnimech in its H configuration. The mech is painted in the grey and red livery of Clan Jade Falcon's Vau galaxy, with gold accents indicating it has a bloodnamed pilot.

My complaint is that Nolan doesn't have Odysseus shooting himself in the dick enough. Like how he would have gotten away from Polyphemus just fine if he hadn't decided to talk shit as he escaped. "Hey fucknuts, my name isn't Nobody, it's Odysseus! Odysseus, king of Ithaca! My home address is..."

If I’ve a complaint about the Odyssey it’s honestly that Nolan softens Odysseus way too much. He has Hector’s infant baby thrown off the walls of Troy and hangs all of his maids. He’s definitely not the type of guy to tell Penelope that she can remarry.

Love how Ostmann Industries has made 3 incredibly common workhorse designs but also locked their equally useful firstborn in a dungeon like it's the Man the Iron Mask for no reason. The Ostwar deserves more variants! #battletech #minipainting

Been working on some Republic of the Sphere mechs in the Hastati Sentinels livery. Took a bit of time due to all the awful heat we had been having. Annihilator, Victor, Bushwhacker, Hunchback, Vulcan, Blackjack, Havoc, Panther, and Locust IIC. #Battletech #AlphaStrike
