Meet MARS. He enjoys crushing his enemies, radioactive fallout tinged sunsets, and long walks across active battle fields. He dislikes the enemy, cruise missiles, and kittens. picture picture picture I still need to do a little detailing, and clear coat him, but he is about 95% done. The secondary batteries, main battery, sensor tower, and front and back are not permanently joined to allow easier storage. Jake |

Hey, Jake, that is some nice work. Did you use an airbrush? |
| CPT Jake | 19 Aug 2009 4:17 p.m. PST |
Thanks. No airbrush, I was too lazy to find the airbrush and compressor (I have not seen them since we moved here…) I primed white and used a bunch of craft paints. Some colors took a couple of coats but I had thinned them a little with water to get a better flow. I then gave it all a wash made from some sepia ink, Future floor wax and water, and then dry brushed. Jake |

Wow, Jake! Mars is a handsome devil, I bet he gets all the attention from the fembots.
Jake how can get a OGRE MK III too in the oversize version? Are they available? |

Still not talking to you  Looks great – are you going to weather the beast? I would be tempted to go for a pastel / chalk finish to show dirt but no battle damage. Andrew

Sadly I bought this as a kit a few years ago and it was one of the last ones made as far as I know. I did have two but sold off the extra to a fellow TMPer a few months ago. I may do some more weathering. I need to figure out where to put his name and how do paint it neatly. I'm probably also going to put a Caution Radiation type decal or two in appropriate places as well. Thanks for the comments. |

Nothing makes a Cybernetic Death Machine shudder like Kittens. |

Wow, that looks big I thought, and then read it was the 15mm version. Nice. |
