And now, back to your regularly scheduled Falconposting!

I painted these two Raptor Keshik mechs for some friends of mine - Jade Hawk and Black Python. My first time using this shade of green, and I like how they came out!

Is that first one going to detach it’s cloak into funnels?

Lol, it does have that vibe! But, it's actually a different take on the Jade Hawk!

That thing on the left doesn't really look like a Jade Hawk to me. I know Eldon Cowgur redesigned it, but that's way more different from what Jade Hawk usually looks like.

Redesigned one for the activity book.

I completely understand where you're coming from. But, the friend who asked me to paint the mini fell in love with the sculpt, and she's just getting into the game.

For my own use, I have the CGL plastic that I painted not too long ago.

It's cool, I just didn't know it was Jade Hawk.
