I'm doing my yearly miniature summary and it looks like I painted 16 battlemechs, 1 gunpla, 18 DFC spaceships, 2 LI flyers, 22 HH marines, 4 28mm dudes, 8 nemesis aliens, and 3 AOS storm hosts. That's 73 minis + 1 gunpla, so double what I did last year.

I decided to try and challenge myself (and clear out my backlog) by painting a squad of minis in a day. I painted these three and am satisfied with the result. There is more I could do, but prioritizing was part of the challenge.

Some Savannah Masters from Battletech in the St. Ives 1st Lancers paint scheme. They were a fun treat after finishing my 16 mechs.

Painted up some battletech minis (BattleMaster here) for the 1st St. Ives Lancers, when they were separate from the Capellan Confederation. I had fun doing an approximate embalm and flag on the legs.

First time air brushing lacquer paints. It's not as bad as I thought it'd be and I learned some ways to improve my setup. I now have like 1/5 a kit with surfacer on it, next is the color and top coat. Though I do need to clean up some first; I can see some visible seams after priming.

Doing my first Gundam in like 20 years. I decided to go all in enough to buy like 10 lacquer paints, but not enough to get nice nippers. All the paints, thinner, and clear coat equal like one nice nippers in price.
