Got all the cockpits done and blue on all the vehicles. Very satisfying to have it this advanced.

I am looking at two things for battletech, storage solutions and infantry. Feld herr is looking good for storage.

Light day of hobbying, I did the cockpits on this militia unit.

I am trying to decide between flames from the bottom or a "shape" pattern near the top. Purple either way. Any thoughts?

I also looked up napoleonics, but who wasn't yesterday.

A few spots of warplock bronze, a quick tidy then wash. Should be done by next post.

Really fun, but this heat is making this process drag out. I left my kit at home so no break progress.

Wash on, really changes them. Loving how they are coming out, the next few steps are going to be much quicker. They have taken about 4 times as long to do as expected with the heat.

All flames done, black added to hover skirts and tires. Very fun scheme, the cockpits will be done in red.

The inspiration for the scheme was Megas XLR. I didn't watch it but the mech looked bad ass, so stuck in my head.

Got these all to this point. Only need rimming and chevron. Great to put this project to bed.

The two mechs got the symbols from Megas XLR. The flea has an Eight ball and the Mercury has a veined eye.

Marking on company, two smalll bits to go before washes.

Most of my hobbytime was used to tidy up my hobby space, and to prepare parts for a rack to keep projects in order.

These 12 models bring me to 320 models done for the year.

It is very satisfying to have finished them, it feels like ages since I last completed a model.

A few close ups of ones I thought were cool.

This company is almost done, only their #battletech chevrons to go. Really fun scheme to do, the sea green and pink works well I think.

Close up of a few models, I realised I have pretty muxh only shown group shots for a while.

I put the first highlight on the pink, next will be a light highlight to really show the pattern. 3 overlapping sqaures.

Most of my hobby time was making this hobby insert, very rough process. Fun and done now
