I love the old #Robotech sculpt of the #Archer. The modern one is way more lore-accurate, but I'm old enough for this era to be "home."

It's mecha monday! This week we're finally starting our first playthrough of the pc adaptation of Battletech! I'm mostly familiar with the lore but have no idea which era this one's going to explore!

Hey folks, just wanted to say that to support as many marginalized folks as possible, especially those who require accessibility tools to enjoy their hobby spaces, I (Kaiju) will only be reposting images with alt-text

Alt-text helps with screen readers, is searchable, & provides context
Thanks 💜

Palette cleanser! First new mini in a while: I've been working on it for a month between commissions and hanging out with my son. This is Alexis Zarnofsky's "Ghostbird", from @swankmotron.com 's "Without Question"!

Mech Advent 2025 Day 8: Rifleman. Continuing the series of 3025-era Successor Lords, this is Janos Marik's customized 'Mech. The cockpit is a bit different, but I like it. #BattleTech #MechAdvent2025
A white Rifleman 'Mech with purple accents and a cockpit painted to look like a blue sunrise. A rear view of the white and purple Rifleman.

Mech Advent 2025 Day 6*: To celebrate the release of the Clan Wolf trailer for MechWarrior 5: Clans, I've gone back and updated my Dire Wolf Widowmaker. This brutal 'Mech is the preferred configuration of Natasha Kerensky after her return to Clan Wolf. #BattleTech #MechAdvent2025 #MechWarrior
A Dire Wolf in the brutal Widowmaker configuration, painted black with red trim and a red hourglass on the left leg. A heat sink on the left arm is glowing brightly. A rear view of the Dire Wolf Widowmaker. More glowing heat sinks are visible.

Mech Advent 2025 Day 2: Marauder II (Bounty Hunter variant). This was a lot of fun to paint! I need to go back and redo the rest of the various 'Mechs the Bounty Hunters have piloted in this same scheme at some point. #BattleTech #MechAdvent2025

Mech Advent Day 3: Warhammer. Joining Max Liao, this is meant to be Katrina Steiner, Archon of the Lyran Commonwealth. This is Iron Wind Metals' pewter model, as you might be able to tell from the crisp details. This was my first real attempt at white; came out well! #MechAdvent2025 #BattleTech

Finally based my #battletech Gothic Draconic Imperium lance. Might drybrush again to sell the glowing green effect but otherwise I'm happy with how they turned out.
Four BattleTech miniatures painted in a combination of Sword of Light (all red) and Otomo (black and gold) livery. Represented 'Mechs are the Rifleman, Phoenix Hawk, UrbanMech, and Atlas from the BattleTech Gothic box set.

an assortment of 13 battletech minis painted in various schemes. an emperor painted like a marble statue covered in vines and flowers. an awesome painted in emulation of synth wave colors, purple drybrushed with orange. an archangel painted red with circuit lines on it to emulate the vector heart style. a mackie painted green and drybrushed with a rust color. an argus painted a desaturated green with orange stripes. an icarus II painted silver with a raven painted on its right shoulder and free painted on its left arm. a quad procyon protomech pained deep green, crouching to pounce. a boggart protomech painted the same green with hazard stripes on its sides. a flea painted light green with hazard stripes. a starslayer painted construction vehicle yellow. a fire falcon painted deep purple. a chameleon painted silver with stripes of light green and blue to make it look like it's shimmering with stealth armor. a pack hunter painted a deep blood red to look like v2 from ultra kill. and last but not least, an urbanmech LAM painted in white, but it's panel lines are painted a bright red on its body and green on its gun.
