Awesome miniatures painted in dark copper with burnished steel highlights. Miscast head area painted as battle damage.

No matter how good the QA, sometimes mistakes are made. This miscast Iron Wind Metals Awesome mini was in my scrap box but it has a new life as a test for damage. Painted as 3rd McCarron's Armored Cavalry #battletech #battletechminiatures #battletechalphastrike #catalystgamelabs #ironwindmetals

Those winglets look like the same ones from the Corsair ASF.

12 miniatures painted in Crater Cobras colors. Light blue on top with green camoflage on bottom. Displayed with a black backdrop.

Haven't posted in a while as i work on a few projects for #NOVAOpen2025 and #NorthernAssault2025

Had a great turnout for the Charity Tournament at Huzzah Hobbies in Ashburn! Raised about $300 for cancer research! #battletech #battletechminiatures #classicbattletech #catalystgamelabs #mechwarrior #miniatures #6mmwargaming #mecha #charity #fuckcancer #boardgames

1. You only fail a pirate point once
2. The Nagelring acceptance is largely political and our heroes generally seem to be the troublemakers. LC Generals are considered ineffective because they are very inside to box thinkers.
3. I remember a certain pirate who was not a fan.

Thanks to some generous donations the prize pool for March 22nd is nearly $600 in value including 3 Camospecs painted minis! There are still some spots left! www.bestcoastpairings.com/event/LQTHED...

Even if you can't attend please consider a donation to a cancer research foundation of your choice!

@universalorl.bsky.social We were a little hesitant to get the 2nd generation wands at the Wizarding World. They are, for lack of a better word, clunky. We did end up getting them and completing the quests over the last few days and look forward to seeing what the next adventures look like.

@michaelastackpole.bsky.social if you could take one technology from Star Wars and add it to the Battletech universe what would it be? How about the other way around? #Battletech #starwars

@markwarner.bsky.social block every vote! Why would you make corruption easier? #3e

Not a problem for Target considering the purchase blackout for canceling their Diversity, Equality and Inclusion programs that provide protection to employees. #targetblackout

What can we do to help communicate our dissatisfaction with our Democratic leaders in a way that is effective and actionable? Not all of us can attend protests or marches, and calling/writing does not seem like enough.

You made it through another work week. Have you had something to eat today or gone outside? Are you slouching? Do you have anything fun offline planned? Is there a friend or loved one you could call?

Try not to doomscroll too late tonight. You still deserve time to rest and recover.

Pass it on.

You could paint them up for Draconis March Militia...

Went to the Edgan Allen Poe Speakeasy in DC tonight! What an incredible experience #feverapp #edgarallenpoespeakeasy #edgarallenpoe #theraven

These look great! Interesting choice to put the Sneede in there. I am sure that the Irregulars would notice if they lost something like that!

If you are in the DC, Maryland, Virginia area and play Battletech, join me for a FREE Classic tournament at Huzzah Hobbies in Ashburn March 22nd! www.bestcoastpairings.com/event/LQTHED...

Atlas mini painted dark green with white accents on shoulders and knees. Dirt basing and decals for Federated Suns and 1st FedSun Armored Cav.

One benefit of playing a game for so long is having lots of old minis to test schemes on. Here is an older Atlas I used to test my process for 1st FedSun Armored Cav. #battletech #battletechminiatures #battletechalphastrike #catalystgamelabs #mechwarrior #miniatures #minipainting #6mmwargaming

JagerMech III miniature painted blue on the left 2/3 and white on the right 1/3. For the 10th Lyran Guard. The silver piping detail divides the two colors vertically. It is displayed on a finished base with bushes.

Hello Bluesky! I have been pulling some old minis out that were either broken or unfinished and giving them a new and complete life.
Here is an Iron Wind Metals JagerMech III painted up for the 10th Lyran Guard.
