Battletech Mechs and 28mm Stargate Team

Just finished off some Battletech mechs from the most recent version box set (link), painting them as Lyran Guards. I used Vallejo dark blue (70.930) and off white (70.820) that allowed me to edge highlight with white (new found love for this technique). Canopies were painted in a bronze/gold to compliment the blue. I also used an oil wash and home made pigment powders (using non-oil pastels), finishing off with some suitable decals.

I also used the powders on these 28mm US Marine Recon miniatures from Eureka Miniatures, that I painted as a generic Stargate team. The greens are a mix of Vallejo German Camouflage Dark Green (70.979) and German Fieldgrey WWII (70.830).

They will soon be joined by some Jaffa and suitable terrain.
