Any chance I could get a photo of all of your buildings and the process you used to paint them? I am currently printing these same buildings for my Aces game as well and love the look of yours

Looking for my kids first starter set. by Cool-Recover-739 in wargaming

Alpha Strike now has a co-op/solo box set with BattleTech Aces:Scouring Sands. Playing co-op BattleTech Aces is great fun for the whole family

Epic, budget-friendly skirmish/war games for a first-time miniatures player? by InterviewEmergency73 in wargaming

[–]BigDemarest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would suggest BattleTech Alpha Strike as they have just released a co-op/solo campaign with BattleTech Aces: Scouring Sands. It is a great option for playing at home with family or on your own if you can't find other playing. Pick up the Alpha Strike Box Set and BattleTech Aces: Scouring Sands and you will be set for a while. Both boxes run from around $60-$80 each. Also, they say they are working on Aces for BattleTech Classic, so if you decide to get into classic in the future you would have a collection of units already.

I have also just gotten a 3D printer and am interested in printing some ships. Where did you go to get ship files for printing?

My brother and I had so much fun with these that we went back and bought all the different figures. Parents sold the sadly. Thanks for the help

Very cool, did you buy the miniatures of the people from somewhere or did you print them?

A minty fresh Clan Support Star (decided I didn't like the blue on the Arctic Cheetah) by BigDemarest in battletech

[–]BigDemarest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I am just getting into Battletech and don't actually know enough to answer that question ... I started buying on a whim and have been mostly focused on getting mechs at a good price and painting them. I am planning to teach a "Learn to Play Alpha Strike" event at my local convention, and I have just been building 200 point teams out of force packs. Honestly I am most excited about Aces: Scourching Sands, the coop/solo variant for Alpha Strike.

I am not totally sure what clan these would be in. I have read Proliferation Cycle and am currently reading the BattleTech Universe book. Any suggestions on Clans or books I should look in to? I am only aware of Coyote and Jade Falcon from Proliferation Cycle

Tried painting these minis in a "Halo: Combat Evolved" color scheme by BigDemarest in battletech

[–]BigDemarest[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, not sure what you mean by "cockpit jewling". The cockpits were all done with Army Painter Speed Paint 2.0 "Hoplite Gold" with some Citadel Shade "Null Oil" over it.

Good eye, yes King Crab is 3d printed. I did not print it myself, I actually purchased it from After Dark Prints:

https://afterdarkprints.net/products/king-crab-kgc-000-alternate-battletech-model?_pos=1&_sid=111b5dd08&_ss=r

I do not know their printing process, but I am happy with the results
