So I've Spent The Last Month Or So Getting A Little Too Into Lancer, I Could Rant About How Amazing It

So I've spent the last month or so getting a little too into Lancer, I could rant about how amazing it is but just go check it out if you're not familiar. Anyways I'm making some of the NPC mechs, mainly out of free 3d print files I found online. Here's my first Assault mech, the generic shooty one

Next up on the encounter roster for Lancer is the Hive. Generating swarms of robot bees to bite mechs is a cool way to kill people, I guess. I think I prefer more straightforward methods, though, like lasers and punching

My partner's little brothers are also into Warhammer, so I decided to make them each a leader for their favorite factions for Christmas

The base is one of the fancy hero bases GW made a while back, glad to finally have found a use for this one

I do love Tau, but I'd want to do so many weird auxiliaries I'd forget all about the battlesuits

Slapchopped some DnD NPCs for a recent module, the drybrushing gets old fast doing batches but the actual color bit is quite fun, like color by numbers

I think these are all Reaper metals, on bases I printed. If you're looking to try slapchop yourself, get some makeup brushes, they're probably my favorite for getting good transitions

"Don't talk to me or my son ever again"

I ran into a creative wall painting my player character for Lancer, so I decided to take a break and revisit gunpla. I love the Zaku, and I'm glad I did research on all the different available kits before buying a couple. This is the High Grade kit for Chars Zaku ii from the Origin movies, which has a much more detailed chassis than previous High Grades.

Oh, I also 3D printed a new eye ring, since the one you get is just flat and you slap a sticker on it, lame.

I have the Real Grade Chars Zaku ii as well, which I'll be painting in his colors, so for this one I went with the classic green. This was fun and relaxing, and much easier than my first attempt at gunpla

I went ahead and did up the heat hawk as well for some posing fun. The kit also comes with the bazooka and the huge anti ship rifle, but I intended this to be a pretty bog standard grunt so I'm saving the extra kit for Chars

I've been sick and really out of it, and felt possessed to print out some classic statues. I asked my partner for one to start with, and they chose Winged Victory of Samothrace

I love that museums and independent organizations just go around using high quality scanners to help make history more accessible, even in small ways like this. I'll likely never visit the Louvre, or Greece if they ever get it back, but I can print my own
