My Mech Build

[LeoFirebrand]

holy crap thats paper, amazing! looked through your web page, think i will give the claptrap a go, will let you know how it turns out.

Definately and let me know if you have any problems. I did not have any test builders outside myself on Claptrap so I would like to know how it goes.

I finished painting the model this weekend and I am really happy with how it turned out. You can find a complete set of pictures on my website at:

Holy cow that thing is beautiful. If i could manage something like this i'd be going after the mechs from Front Mission and Armored Core lol.

That is BEAUTIFUL. At that scale, I would have been afraid to paint it, but it looks great. What weight paper are you working with?

Sweet. I love to see imaginative scratch-builds like this.

That is BEAUTIFUL. At that scale, I would have been afraid to paint it, but it looks great. What weight paper are you working with?

Im actually using standard 8.5x11 110pd Card Stock. I also use 26pd paper when i need to roll tubes or fold really small objects.

I originally learned to paint pewter minatures and it surprising how well those techniques scale up to larger scale models.

Well the Hawken forum is hosting a contest for fan created art and I entered my model. As of this post I am tied with another member who created some custom logos/wallpaper. So if anyone here plays Hawken and would like to vote for my build I would appreciate the votes. Anyone can vote but you do have to sign up to their forums/game which is free.
