Ok so the last couple of weeks have mostly been given over to reposing and prepping mechs, robots, and titans in preparation for priming since the weather is getting colder. I figured now would be a good time to finalize my last Inner Sphere lance. I'd originally thought to do it as a Wolf's Dragoons Black Widow lance but I've since thought that perhaps it would be better to do a completely different unit so I don't have two lances from the same group.

My thought is to do them up as Kell Hounds. At the very least, a match between the Dragoons and the Hounds could be a training session and I think everything else fits into place including fighting the wolves. For reference, here's the completed IS lances:

The last lance has two marauders, a warhammer, and a Rifleman. I'll put up pics of them later.

Wow, these group shots make it abundantly clear what a talented painter you are with a broad palette of techniques at your disposal. Not a big fan of um... Battletech, but I always manage to find inspiration in this thread.

minor update. I've been slowly prepping models and I'm almost finished. Just a bit more to resculpt on a reaver titan and I'm good. anyway, part of what I've been readying are 9 of the 14 mechs left to paint. They are finally primed and ready to go when I get to them this winter. I'd do the last five but I'm a bit burned out on chopping up mechs, reposing them and sculpting. The clan star doesn't look it but there's been a considerable amount of work in cleaning the bits and fixing casting issues as well as reposing. The Dire Wolf had a lot of filling and sanding on the legs and the barrels on the arms replaced while the Nova had the PPC's fabricated and sculpted.

This IS lance is also pretty heavy on the conversions. Both marauders were chopped up and reposed to prevent their falling over backwards pose and fix the silly extended arms. The rifleman had almost every joint cut to repose and the warhammer had a heck of a time with the arms to get them to bend properly and look good in most of the viewing angles.
