Slapchopping Some Battlemechs | Battletech: A Game of Armored Combat

I recently bought the sterter box for Battletech A Game of Armored Combat by Catalyst Games Labs! Having zero patience and wanting to get minis on the table, I tr out the "slap chop" technique for the first time. Sort of!
If you like what I do, consider buying me a coffee?

All music is by me! If there's interest maybe I'll release some.

12:50 clearly you have never driven a m1 Abrams through the backwoods of Tennessee or Kentucky during a spring training mission.

[@MadhouseMinis]

Do you have an Abrams I could borrow for a few hours?

[@ironmask5308]

*Flashbacks to wearing several pounds of a Ft. Knox obstacle course in the early spring and then cleaning said terra not so firma from EVERYTHING*

[@bradpresley84]

I feel you on the white. I swapped to acrylic ink and never looked back. Way easier to actually get it opaque.

Awesomes are Awesome!

More mech painting, please. Getting ready to paint some of the new Mercenaries set when the new models release. Hopefully soon since my shipping charges are showing up.

[@jasonwiard7307]

Great job! I'd love to see more Battletech

[@MadhouseMinis]

I've definitely got some in the pipeline!

[@m.f.1130]

The Colors remind me of the Constructicons from the 80s Transformers-Movie. ❤

[@pmcanto]

it looks really great!

[@bryanlynch5563]

Came here from the Reddit post, these 'Mechs are dreamy

[@MadhouseMinis]

Much appreciated!

[@BearGirlSummer]

I know you gave us the track ID for Lonely Space Vixens, but do you have a link to it? Maybe I'm just dumb, but I can't find it anywhere

[@BearGirlSummer]

There's something so hypnotic about it, I've rewatched that painting sequence about a dozen times

[@MadhouseMinis]

@@BearGirlSummer I just published it publicly for you! Glad you like it, probably my favorite that I've made. chrisanger.bandcamp.com/track/lonely-space-vixens-demo

[@BearGirlSummer]

@@MadhouseMinis Thank you so much!!

[@Ajax-wo3gt]

I love battletech! I hate painting miniatures! How long did it take per model to achieve this result? Excluding all the time you left them to dry overnight and stuff.

[@MadhouseMinis]

If you ignore the highlights, and I would for normal slapchop, honestly an hour and a half per model. There's a reason I was able to paint up 4 more before I finished editing the video!

[@Ajax-wo3gt]

@@MadhouseMinis You mean the final round of highlights you did towards the end of the video?

[@MadhouseMinis]

@@Ajax-wo3gt yep! Those took longer and honestly didn't add enough to be super worth it. I actually made a few mistakes and they're much harder to fix with speed paints

[@Ajax-wo3gt]

@@MadhouseMinisCool, thanks. I need a fast method for knocking out my minis and this might be it. Also, I loved your tank kitbash mini. Made want to try the game too.

[@seanuh60]

What part was the slap chop? Turned out great.

[@MadhouseMinis]

Mostly the beginning! I'll call it slap chop +

[@ThommBara]

Good video but omg what is that music??? I like lana del rey like any one, but geez.
