Neo-Bloc Goshawk Print

I checked my mail about 20 minutes ago and skipped all the way back to my house I was so happy.

While I love posting up new art this is by far my favorite type of Monday update as I have a brand new print to show off. I quickly pressed stuff together with sticky-tac for the photos.

(I had to repose him several times as the heat from the shop lamp makes the sticky-tac lose its grip pretty quickly). This is the raw master a couple panels and the cockpit window will need a very light touch of sanding but everything came out great. I can't wait to get him molded and have some resin casts on hand.

The variant parts are being sent in for printing this week and if all goes well I'll have everything ready for pre-order within two weeks.

Neo-Bloc Goshawk Beta

I worked up an alternate load out for the Goshawk which features a pair of railguns.

I expect the test print of the earlier Alpha model to arrive later this week and provide it comes out as expected I'll have this one submitted very shortly for printing as well. This deviates from the stat cards that were previously used for the game so I'll be updating the cards to represent the actual model load outs for the variants.

Neo-Bloc Goshawk

For those of you that follow my Facebook page you know I've been at work on a new Mecha Front model. I just finished the Neo-Bloc Goshawk mech up this morning and it's been emailed to the printer for quoting.

I've also set up a new site at www.mechafront.com which will be the homepage for the game. At the moment its a bit threadbare but I'll be adding more content as I can.

Here's a couple shots of the renders.

Nor-Am Raptor Resin Casts

The master model for the Raptor came out beautifully. Below are some pictures of the resin casts that were made. The initial 50 copies that were placed up for pre-order sold very quickly and all were shipped out by July 5th. I do have the standard production run models available now on www.mechafront.com

This first picture is the master model which is why it's in a slightly darker grey. The model shown on it's base is a 15mm dollie to help show how it compares to 15mm scale miniatures.

It also works very well with 10mm figures like Drop Zone Commander. Both HO and N-Scale terrain works well with them, although I prefer the N-Scale as the mecha appear larger and its also less expensive.
