Primer time! as we all know, things look sexy in black, here I have primed the most recent additions to the Powered Armor Corps of the UruKhar Empire ( A DiY force)

Heavy mech primed in black

Hackers also in black primer
[/img]

Drop-troopers look stealthy!

Next time, base green added in with the joints/servos metallicized

Sometimes wish could just leave them in black, but the coloured units look too awesome.

That’s my problem with infinity, they always look better primed than after I paint them. Too many years of grimdark I guess.

I know, feels odd when I apply colors.

so many details to work out.

Although these two heavy suits are both employed by the UruKhar Empire(DiY), they each encompass different design philosophies for the battlefield. The AN-C1 "Anaconda" is built for survivability under the heaviest of fire with layers of composites, mono-molecular aligned matrix armor, and other classified durable materials, covered by strong defense shields, moving silently for it's size, and made to handle power loads almost like a construction machine, the AN-C1 can deliver powerful hammer blows if it is left with just punches and kicks but as seen carries a large power blade, and heavy phaser cannon with the ability to change particles from Nadion to Tetryon or better.

The lighter and faster MA-M8 "Mamba" is capable of swift strikes punching and kicking, as well as sword strikes with it's "Lightning" blade. It carries a Polaron/Phaser canno9n, and is similar in armor and shields to the "Anaconda" just less weight for swifter speeds, and each can be a lethal combo, complimenting each traits together in combat. Power supplies and servos are classified as well, making these large suits as sneaky as their smaller powered armor brethren that they support during heavy combat missions.

for logistical reasons they stand similar in height, but as can be seen the AN-C1 is bulkier and thickly built, while the MA-M8 is slimmer and looks like it is running while standing still.

[/img]

As can be seen here, they each have different approaches even to their power plants design, but again that is classified
[/img]


again the entirety of differences in the design of each shows the philosophical divergence, heavy duty or rap[id strike
[/img]

[/img]

Okay I know it has been a while since last paint update, but the last batch got some of the coppery orange and some other colors laid down at last! So, without further ado, I present the latest batch closing in on and catching up with the previous batch of troopers.

Command and administrative agent got his coat updated as well.

and here the Big Mech front and both sides showing

Of course as with most of paint sprees, I can see touch ups and some fixing is needed, so that will also be part of the next paint wave.

Good job.
Red coat works well.

Thank you, I have as seen plenty of work on my hands, but will update as much as possible

Nice work, very interesting models as well.

Hi guys, sorry for the delays, heat and humidity has sapped me a bit, but nights cooling off may help me finish the painting work I need to do on these guys and also other minis projects.

Stay tuned for updates and images.

I feel your pain brother . Get at it when you can, we’ll be here.

Thank you, it means a lot to me. I know I used to be more prolific in the past, but of late I have also felt the slow down, I hope a C-pap will help me the heat and humidity wear on me, falling asleep in front of the computer or waking up hot and sweaty has drained me

Okay, finally have pics of work done on minis, still working on them. But here we have these cute little bots

TY, and I am okay, and jazzed as they are making the Mowang to come out next month! Mowang is a big beasty!



I figure this is the pose and weapon choice. pose is a bit static

He looks like a fun model to paint up, can’t wait to see your take on him.

Just went over a bunch of your pages, bud you are definitely improving, nice work. look forward to seeing him soon.

Thanks guys! I have to wait until he is out in September, meanwhile must finish the current batch and that corporate agent.

Hi all, I know, another distraction for the 'ole Shas'O, but was feeling Nostalgic for the old days of SW and when I saw these kits that theoretically can scale along with the mecha collection fighters of My Garmillas fleet, I had to get the kits , as seen in these pics, I am working on the Advanced T.I.E. and the regular Imperial T.I.E. fighters that came as a one box set! and it does have this odd display stand ability.

As can be seen, these little guys are packed with details by Bandai. Hats off to them for so much good work on so small a scale. they seem 1/100 or maybe 1/144 scale. I hope to do them some justice as I paint them up.

Sitting next to the T.I.E. was this little guy, so yeah got the X-Wing as well. Now am set, and ready to prime and paint it as well, and it has decals that are likely easier to put on and less confusing, the Tie's had decals that I can replace with paint, I may add some colored markings on them. Anyway, here is my Income T-65 X-wing

Was worried as the parts were small, they did go together cleanly, and the laser cannons actually were flexible enough not to snap when cutting them free with care.

So, it is Prime time! all 3 little fighters primed in black

So, the Mowang I pre-ordered finally arrived (Mail delayed a day past expected delivery date of the 3rd), based on what I can see of him compared to other suits, the pilot has their hands in the fore-arms and control manipulators that are large hand shaped devices, and their feet are in the the calves, but the feet of the suit are not the pilot's but similar to the manipulators.

As you can see, it has four arms to make initially 2 models, but with some changes I can go past the HMG/Flamer and hand cannon, Handcannon+Red-Fury and I can do one as dual heavy weapons, and the Sgt with dual handcannons
