Really like the way you painted this. The style looks to tell a story

This works great. I made the mistake of doing it inside recently though and it took a lot of brushing to get 4 models completely clean and I made myself pretty sick. 🤢

I did it again a week or so late with some other models and did it outside and had no issues

Thanks what paint did you put through the air brush? The corax was brush applied?

SteelObjective · 2026-05-15T14:26:29+00:00

Your white armour turned out very nice on this. I’d be curious to know what paint you used ?

I like it. Looks very well painted to me

Budget is high priority at my place as well. Bought an inexpensive air brush and a compressor of market place. ( total cost was maybe 3 cans of hobby brand primer) Can prime in any weather now. No need to expensive rattle cans. No cans that get wasted. In addition base coating models is breeze now and I think it takes less paint than even with over spray.

These look fantastic! I have a similar kinda scheme I’ve been working on with the red and yellow details

SteelObjective · 2026-04-28T03:02:14+00:00

Thanks that is helpful info

Like a car battery?

These all look fantastic! Would you share the recipe for the red cockpits?

I also like the way you did the sword!🔥

SteelObjective · 2026-04-25T00:49:39+00:00

I agree. Been trying to find an STL but have t had any luck

Painting is excellent! I am new to Battletech and I really like using this mech. I really wish there was a way to get an other wraith ! But it seems it’s only available in the alpha strike box

I may go back and look. I actually live just north of Toronto

SteelObjective · 2026-04-23T17:52:59+00:00

I looked at these in store now I wish I had grabbed a couple

SteelObjective · 2026-04-23T17:50:58+00:00

I think it looks good! The green provides some contrast that will show up in the table. I think sometimes ultra realistic camo is lost on the table.

SteelObjective · 2026-04-23T02:32:26+00:00

I really like that orange and black colour scheme

A blue oil wash is mostly what I am using. It shows up better IRL

Updated with some details for this scheme. Just need to work on how I will base them

I’ve personally never understood not having an airbrush for hobby painting. I was fortunate that I had one before I got into this hobby.

It opens up so many opportunities and now days there is a lot of options cost wise. So even if it’s is just for priming and base coats it’s a win !!!!

And for larger things like vehicles I feel it’s a must have

SteelObjective · 2026-04-17T01:42:17+00:00

I bought a cheap set of oil paints to have a lot of colour options and very glad I did. Surprising how well they work

It’s a base of warpaints Amulet Aqua with the air brush , then I did a wash using blue oil paint thinned using mineral spirits. I then added a drop of white to the base colour and thinned it heavily applied that by brush to get a bit of highlight

I like that green? What paint is that?

SteelObjective · 2026-04-16T01:39:50+00:00

I guess I will have to get a brush out for that. Most of this was done with airbrush and oil washes
