The Champion and the Shootist are pretty weird, but in different ways. The Champion for being "I wanna be a LAM!" so hard, but cannonically failing at it, and the Shootist for being the boxiest of boxes with a silly dick laser.
As someone who studied classical literature at university, I'm sticking with the book.
House Imarra Urbanmech. Because even when you're an elite warrior from a prestigous unit in the Chancellors favour, you can still get stuck with a shitty 'mech. Very pleased with my freehand insignia on this one. Didn't think I could make the Capellan logo look that good. #battletech #nerdlings
3rd Lyran Guards Atlas. Because every Lyran regiment needs an Atlas. #battletech #miniatures #miniaturepainting #nerdlings
3rd Lyran Guards Schreck PPC carrier. Final tank in my Lyran scout armour lance. #battletech #miniatures #miniaturepainting #nerdlings
3rd Lyran Guards Manticores. Freehanding regimental insignia on 6mm scale tanks just might drive me mad, but I've started so I'm going to keep on. #battletech #miniatures #minaturepainting #nerdlings
3rd Lyran Guards Demolisher heavy tank. I've posted this guy before, but now he has all the regimental markings. #battletech #miniatures #minaturepainting #nerdlings @battletech.bsky.social

House Imarra Battleblobs. I can see that the original sculpt was fine, but the plastic CGL used really doesn't work on something this tiny. #nerdlings #miniatures #miniaturepainting #battletech @battletech.bsky.social
This is my favourite bit of John Blanche art. Two pages that still inform Chaos Marine style to this day. Finding that in the Chaos Codex was a revelation. Like they'd just stuck a couple pages from his sketchbook in the book and called it done, because there was no better way to explain things.
This guy. I still have him. He's from 1988, when I was about 11.
Mwahaha! It's finally mine! It's been hard to get in South Australia. None of my usual places got any in. #battletech
I'd love to tell you how, but it's just something I do without any tricks. Always do it in one smooth motion though.
Somebody really likes his new tower. Plenty of room to sleep on all the levels.
May the 4th be with you. Vader and Stormtrooper from an old SW Legion starter. #starwars #maythe4th #miniatures #miniaturepainting #nerdlings

Good book. I should probably get around to playing the game soon. #metro2033 #reading #books

Typhus. You really forget how much a metal terminator weighed until you pull an old one out of a mini case. #40k #warhammer40k #warhammer #miniatures #minaturepainting #nerdlings
