Pictures are extremely helpful. Some good brushwork there. The corsair I think might be a bit too red, it might make sense to break it up a little more, as you did with the grey and red mechs, stonking job on those. Not so keen on the rebel mechs must say. |

Did you paint the Corsair with Vallejo Gory Red? It covers well, but always leaves the finish very close to glossy looking. Nice, tidy work. |

Actually, if you read the blog, he describes precisely how he painted it. |

@Jeff, I used GW Mephiston Red which is a quantum leap compared to the old GW red foundation colour. It covers with two thin coats, for the gloss I used Leviathan Purple wash (also GW) and then highlighted again with the base colour. Somehow I never really liked the Vallejo colours and up to now I'm not disappointed with the new GW colours. Price doesn't really concern me, as 15mm keeps my paint consumption low. |

Have You pinned Rebel Minis mechs? |

@ porfirio- Couldn't get to it. We have an older version of IE here at work that seems to hate blogger. @ Newtype- I've been switching back to GW from Vallejo, myself. |

Love the glossy red on the Corsair. Just surprised that i hear grumblings about how tall it is and you choose to mount it on a tiny dirt mound ;) I haven't even figured out the colors I will use on mine. Thanks for some inspiration. |

At first glance I didn't realize the red figure was supposed to be a Mech. Glad there were more pictures for size comparison. Good stuff all around. |
