CNCS goes to war!

Here is the commission that I have been working on over this past week.  The scheme is based on an Ice Hellion Galaxy from Battletech with some slight modifications at the client's request.  The scheme is quite striking with the contrast between the tan and black. Here are the completed models for your enjoyment. 

The Mammoth strider here has been magnetized so all options are interchangeable and the polarity is done so all parts can be used in any combination.  All the options are possible so the client should have no problems when the new Northern Field Guide comes out.

The following are the client's Fire Support and G.P. Squad.  These were done in the same scheme and feature some simple yet suitably Terra Novan.  The Koala gears were added and I am a big fan of these particular miniatures.

The infantry I painted were a platoon each of Northern and NuCoal.  Both feature the standard studio scheme and are based the same as the rest of his forces.  These infantry are a nightmare to base but they turned out pretty nice.

Queens of the Battlefield....

I never understood that phrase but here are some recently completed Heavy Gear infantry.  These were done using the studio scheme with some slight modifications at the client's request.  The basing on these are not done yet as I am waiting to get the rest of his miniatures in his commission done.  I tend to do all my basing at once as basing is messy.  These are the newer Nucoal infantry and the much older Northern infantry.  I never noticed before but the Northern infantry are carrying quite the variety of weaponry.  Squad machineguns, RPGs, and regular rifles are all present.  The Nucoal infantry are all equipped with assault rifles but Dream Pod 9 makes optional heavy weapons to pull off the various options available in the army list.  Enjoy these pictures and stay tuned for more pictures from this commission.
