My brother-in-law has finally joined the dark side and gotten into miniature war-games. I convinced him to check out Battletech/Alpha Strike because of my own interest, the ease of acquiring materials atm, and how welcoming the community is compared to other miniature war-games on the market. Well, he has liked what he has seen and bought a few items that he could find cheap. His own paint work has finally motivated me to paint my own backlog.

For my inner sphere units, I have decided to paint them in the Kell Hounds paint scheme, except for my Yen-lo-wang.

Good luck! I got too many side hobbies to even try to pickup the art of painting, of which I am 99% sure I will be horrible at! Smile

Allow me just one constructive criticism, it is to be appreciated a painting job of multiple pieces, but the molding lines are something really ugly to see unfortunately.

They are, but I only have 1 arm so trimming them is difficult.
