And here I thought I had finished painting more Jade Falcon mechs...

Iron Wind Metals Ion Sparrow Prime in Jade Falcon colors. Will say that if I had to pose the thing again, I would do much better next time (this was my first IWM mech).

It's Superb Owl time. I'm personally rooting for the Great Horned Owl.

Picked up the 21st Centauri Lancers pack for this lovely Jade Hawk mech (still not quite done with it).

I have to say, that I really love the design of the Jade Falcon mechs that came out during the early 3100s.

Finally had some time to post this lovely piece of art I had commissioned from @likeshine.bsky.social of a Star Trek Online RP character that I RP with named K'tarn.

I believe that Likeshine is still open for commissions, and she does some pretty damned amazing stuff!

I really loved the Fox Patrol books so much I reallocated a few mechs I had planned to paint in other unit liveries and picked up a few new ones in order to get these five lovelies together.

Now to find a nice paint color I'll be happy with...

Since my attempt at painting mechs the other day ended with a mini disaster with paint everywhere, I changed it up to work on some of the scenery for the Scouring Sands campaign.

Finished my test river piece and am quite happy with how it turned out!

My paint bottle top came off and splattered all the paint inside *everywhere*.

Thankfully, only a permanent stain on my bookshelf my wife made for me and a tshirt possibly ruined. Nothing else permanently stained.

Guess I should have focused on my scenery instead of my mechs. 😅

Finished up my #AlphaStrike Scouring Sands opposing Jade Falcon force!

First up in the thread, the Rifleman C 2. This is the mech that those two plastic pieces attach to.

And what Scouring Sands campaign would be complete without a "baddie"?

Took a moment for a small palate cleanse by painting up some Jade Falcon mechs just to change it up a bit.

A Bane 3 and a Marauder IIC.

A small thread of a few additional Saberwolves mercenary company forces.

First up, a Flashman, a Dragon Fire, and a Wolfhound.

Just five more mechs, a few more tanks, and IS mechanized infantry to go. Then, the protagonist for the Scouring Sands campaign will be ready.

I painted a Thor (Summoner) H in the colors of the Clan Jade Falcon Epsilon Galaxy based on the 18th Falcon Regular from the ACES Scouring Sand Box. You could find more on my Instagram.

As a trans woman that's into #Battletech, I have been grateful at the welcoming space my local gaming store has fostered for the LGBTQ+ community as a whole.

And the guys I play with there are excited that there's another individual that wants to play Battletech with them.

Another art post? GASP. This was for Manu Koa and Ralen. I don't do a lot of scenic stuff like this so it was a fun challenge! Thank you both very much <3 #art

Finally found a decal that I liked to represent my Saberwolves Mercenary Company force (a 40k decal 😅).

Unfortunately I made a smidge of a mistake when putting it on the Awesome's left arm, but it kind of works well "damaged".

During insomnia time last night, I finished my binge read of the three Fox Patrol books by @swankmotron.com

SO GOOD!

Seeing LGBTQ+ folks represented in the first books I'm reading in the setting in a while was awesome.

And the ending of the third book had me crying with what happens at the end.

A long thread of mechs, vehicles, and an aerospace asset for #Battletech / #AlphaStrike

All painted in my Saberwolves mercenary company livery.

First up, the Shilone.

Work: Here is this mountain of things we need you to get done that are complicated and take time.

Also work: oh, btw, we need you to sit in 12 meetings over the next three days.

Also, also work: Oh, and can you do your regular work faster?

😭

A small thread of three mechs that I had forgotten to post at the end of 2025. All of them in my Saberwolves mercenary company livery.

First up is the Rifleman.

Happy New Year! May it be an AWS-8Q year for you!

An Awesome in the Saberwolves mercenary company livery with a little extra flare of purple as this is the mech my wife liked and her favorite color is purple.

This will be the second in command's mech.

That mind blown moment when I realized that the name of a D&D character I created (A panther ranger who goes by Dross) is apparently an actual word...and the definition somehow actually fits the character's backstory (at least from her point of view).

I very much didn't plan that but it works.
