It's Been A Week So I Figured I'd Have A Work In Progress Post For My Own Player Character For Lancer.

It's been a week so I figured I'd have a Work in Progress post for my own player character for Lancer. Here's my take on a Chomolumga, the tech savvy variant of the Everest. We're kitted out with two assault rifles for that lovely Reliable, and finishing it with a light Nexus for the matching range. I've also given it manipulator arms to type away on keyboards and other nerdy things without compromising pilot safety.

Basically I took a ton of 3d assets and mashed and posed them in a terrible 3d modeler program. Some of the pieces I remember are Battletech Black Knight torso and Assassin legs, Armored core heads someone made for Tau suits, parts from the free mech package Filamentio made (great stuff), and bits from the Modular Mech campaign on myminifactory. Since not all the parts are free, I wouldn't be able to distribute this one if people wanted it, sadly.

This guys role will mainly be to play support, speccing into Swallowtail to support my partners rip and tear Blackbeard build. I've essentially just laid down the basecoat to get an idea of color placement

The big defender in our first encounter for Lancer, a Bastion. Not too much to say other than I'm glad it's done, far too many corners and hidden surfaces, and the model has several notable weak points I've had to address so it took much longer than I was hoping

Found a cute little spider tank that I'm making our Bombard. Seems purpose built to hassle people who use the Bonded trait or stack auras, which is fun, and this dopey lil guy looks about speed 2

Ork Warboss completed!

I think I've only got 2 Christmas projects left, let's see if I finish in time

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

"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
