True tape is best for hard lines but it is a lot of work to get soft or "organic" masks on with tape. For that i find that liquid mask is the best. But as you say, scale matters. Would not use liquid mask over tape on say a 28/32 mm tank... But i think it will be nice on the BT scale tanks that came/comes with the mercenaries boxes.

Thank you very much. The Davion guard are fun to paint, as soon as one get past the track suite vibes. =P

Enjoy it

Yeah it is a bit on the soft side. But on the flip side. No need to mess around with resin.. :)

I did the opposite Journey. Left Warhammer for battletech

Im doing the death korps of krieg and nice painting

Thank you.

Just paint.. overbrush from a previous paintjob. :)

​@@TawessBitsboxtalk about inadvertently creating something. I thought you were going with a synthwave design.😂

well maybe i can use it for inspiration in another mech.

It comes courtesy of Fist of the Northstar.

One can not go wrong with a good Timberwolf.

@TawessBitsbox my first experience with the Timberwolf was MechAssault on the Xbox. The old one with the controllers too big for the hands of a seven-year-old. Still one of my favorite games of all time

Odd.. It sounded good before i uploaded it. Will make sure it sounds better in the future.

Yupp.. that is pretty much this US election in a nutshell. No good choice and both parties are stuck with a albatross.

thanks

I have a longer video going over the process here. th-cam.com/video/hc6a96rXZU4/w-d-xo.html but in short it was army green over a white base, then a layer of green ink and then working it back up with a green yellow mix that is threw together on the spot.

You are welcome. I hope the rest of the pre painted minis hold the same standard.

To be fair... I just had a big backlog and spent some time during my vacation to record a bunch of them vertically. =)

That is very true if one want a very bright and light red, But i have also found that both cream white colors and even browns and oranges can have very interesting effects on the red. Now that is even more apparent when using a airbrush. But yes, for bright colors you can never go wrong with a bright white.

Thank you very much.

Yeah that is what shitty old eyes does to one. I need all the advantages i can get =)

Thanks

Thanks.

Desert yellow from the armypainter fanatic range. You can get a very similar result by mixing leather brown and daemonic yellow from the warpaints range in a 50/50 mix

That is a thing i have meant to get around to. But things always seems to come up. But since i have now switched to using mostly Army Painter Fanatics paints. It should be doable. I should really paint another one of these with the new paints.

With the Kickstarter Battletech: Mercenaries arriving soon, Im sure even more people will be searching out for paint scheme tips. :) I ended up choosing to go with Army Painter’s Speedpaint 2.0 Beowolf Blue, Citadel’s Basilicanum Grey and Bad Moon Yellow contrasts. But needed to use the Seraphim Sepia shade in the recesses of the Bad Moon Yellow areas for more depth.

That sounds like a really good recipe. Speedpaints are great. =)

Thank you very much.

Thanks!

Thank you. I felt it was good to add as many voices and perspectives as possible since ArmyPainter have been beating the big drum... =)

So far I have been exclusively using Army Painter Speedpaint 2.0 and metallics, and I managed to get hold of some of the fanatics paints. The performance of all of them and the ease of painting has me sold. Saving for the bigger fanatic set and I’ve ordered the fanatics metallic set and washes set. I’ve personally found them easily as good as Pro Acrylics and GW (if not vastly superior in some colours)!

Yeah i really wanted the full set... but... it was pricey. So i had to go for the 50 paint set. I have a video coming up about the new yellow. It is really great.

Yes sort of, that one was primed with wraithbone from Citadel paints. So no actual undercoat primer as such but i have found that most of GW base paints and spray cans do the job just fine as long as you give the model a little bath first. Unless yu paint metal models... They always need to have a good undercoat primer.

Thank you. I was worried i rambled and got off track. =)

That i will do. Video should be coming up next early week. I was unsure about the interest from people. But i seems that people are fascinated. =)

It is surprisingly fun once one get going. I am currently trying to hacksaw apart a Atlas... Like a true assault mech it is resisting mightily. =)

Thank you. I was trying out a new way to do stripey camo. It turned out pretty well i think too.

My thanks. Always good to get some feedback. Always hard to gauge that stuff by analytics alone. I have had more people being interested in terrain making so i´l go through my store of materials and put something nice together. Might start off with some hills or a building. Again thank you and i wish you have a good start to the new year.

I might actually make that my next video. Would give me a good excuse to try and wrap some of them up.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.

Thank you. Cockpits are a nemesis of mine but i am slowly getting better.

Yupp it is.

To be fair i was holding off until i got the box because i really did not like the camo. But being able to study the box they came in and have a nice close up of the design was a great help. =) Best of luck to you with your painting.

Thank you. Hope it turns out well.

Yeah.. It is always a fight with the space i have. But i am slowly approaching a more useful setup. Feel free to check the latest video for were we are right now.

Depends. I am considering using green stuff and just sculpt a set of speaker stacks. But for a quick and easy some sprues or glued together strips of plastic should do. :)

@@TawessBitsbox I’ll let you know what I come up with! Thanks again!

Thank you very much.

Glad to still be able to provide. =)
