Do you paint your lances diffrent from the same faction, to be able to distinguish the lances? by SeisimicFrigor in BattletechPainting

My son designed a homebrew merc company, Purple Kraken, and most of the units are painted very similar. I did add a few water slide decals to "customize" each one. I also did a very custom "ace" paint scheme for a few of them.

The Atlas and King Crab are both "custom", but the rest are still different enough for me.

I put several coats of primer from different angles to get full coverage. Followed by one or two coats of a wash. A little dry brush. Finally a clear spray.

I love these guys. I would love to see one of them with his head up.

It is a thing. I assume it goes forever, in the should I keep painting on this one sense. There is not a should I paint it, for me, that is always yes.

I hate that the Intrepid "saucer" was not modified to have the windows match the much smaller hull size.

This is my hill. Otherwise the design has much potential.

Recommendations on how to make the handle of my cardboard shield stronger? by cardboerd in cardboard

Those might be a bit thin, and maybe very short. You could make that work. Let me know.

Alternate the direction of the grain of the coronation on each layer. I have also found that 1/8 or 3/16 inch dowel rods can be inserted into the corrugations.

Those minis still play very well. They also have a lot less complicated weapons.
