The unseen become the seen!

G'day folks wanted to post this incase you haven't heard... The Unseens are officially going to be back in the game! 

The Project Pheonix mechs only got the unseens back for the timeline after 3067(?) as they are upgraded variations of the original 3025 units. This left a gap, the unseens from TRO 3025 were still unseen and thus were not allowed to be used in official tournaments. 

There is also a rumored 'Alpha Strike' box set coming soon that will have the essential 12 seen units, and 10 redesigned clan mechs. **Please don't qoute me on this as this is just a rumor at this time. 

Below you'll find the art for the newely redesigned Warhammer, Marauder, Shadowhawk and griffin. As well as a 3D render of that sexy new warhammer. 

All in all I'm glad they're finally getting these classic units back into the game, and I'm more than happy that they chose modernize these machines like MWO. 

I'm sure that this will bring new life into the game, and make new players fall in love with these mechs as so many of us have. 

That's all for now, 

See ya'll soon. 

Need a new 'mech..? Why not Zoidberg..?

G'day folks, 

Wanted to show off something that came in the post today... A king crab from MWO.... In metal. 

I bought it from a nice guy from a certain online store (Of which I will not post so as to not step on anyone's toes, but if you're interested, contact me via google+ and I can send you his way.) I can safely say the casting quality rivals or goes beyond what IWM has to offer. Mold lines were minimal, most prominently near the cockpit area on the torso, and the standard mold lines on the arms and legs. As far as I can tell there is no detail lost in the casting, although I think the molds used to produce these could stand to be replaced as there was some minor pitting on the top of the torso. It is also notable that it comes with open and closed claws for both the left and right arms. 

Mine is curently on the painting table sitting in primer and will be painted up in the standard sword of light unit colors like the jenner I showed a few weeks back. A CBT atlas and hex base is included with the pic to show scale. All in all it scales pretty well for a chicken-Walker assault mech. 

See pics below. 

Mwo Jenner

Hey all, another update... A repaint of the mwo jenner. Like all the others I used enamel paints, so the main goal is to atone for this mistake and use the proper acrylic paints. :S 

All I've got to say is that acrylics are much easier to blend and shade. 

I painted it up in House Kurita's first sword of light colors, a unit I've always liked. Also, it's finally mounted on a hex base! :D

After this one I've also got a jagermech repaint in benjamin regulars colors to go along with those previously shown. 

That's all for this post and see ya'll soon.
