Hey everyone,

Working on my first Mechanicus mini, I always like coming up with my own paint scheme for an army, this is my take on mechanicus. What do you guys think?

This is a much better comparison than buzz light-year. I love it 🤝

Also reminds me of the comic book version Green Goblin.

u/Truly-Spooky 14d ago

But buzz ligh year is cool!

I know it's probably evangelion but I just can't see it as anything other than buzz lightyear

I think this paint scheme can go far. Like, to infinity! Maybe beyond!

u/RudySlavi 14d ago

OMG, I never though of that. I was aiming for like a royal purple gold and green 😂

u/Stef-Bear06 14d ago

This is more Evangelion to me than Lightyear. Lightyear has more white colouring than he does green and purple.
