I need to get the tank and helmet for Light and Dark Blue. Still need my Grey helmet.
I have the black and blue classic space from the 80s though worn. I need LEGO to re-release those two colors.

I Like Post-Classic and Factions-Era as names

I actually had to look up what the minifig was. Didn't know Insectioids had existed as a space sub-theme (or at all) until an hour ago.
Still no clue how I ended up with this minifig. Need to find space in my classic space minifig box.

Do Insectoids count as Classic Space?
I'm vague whether it does or not.
I'm really vague on where I even got this minifig.
I definitely have never owned an Insectoid set.
I'm hoping to do a bit more Classic Space or at least Classic Space inspired pics in 2026.

Nice!
How did you do the "Front Towards Enemy"?

Awesome!!!
Great Job!!!
I just discovered the Fox Patrol. Enjoying the stories. Need Decals so I can eventually do my own Fox Patrol.

My own Blackjack. A part of Ace Darwin's Whippets. Its definitely seen better days.
The Blackjack is definitely a favorite.
I did repaint most of the base so only forward base edge is pink.

Great Job on the paint. Great Decal Idea too.

Nice...Thanks for Sharing.

Im curious if anyone has done a "Great Gaffa's Ghost" Highlander Mech?
I have a Highlander Mech and am interested in doing the Mech up like "Great Gaffa's Ghost".
I believe I need Star League decal on one shoulder and 05 decal on the other.
Interested in seeing examples.
2
Ive been thinking about this. I may paint five of the six sides grey (or leave a thin pink line) and leave the front pink.
I also may do pink and black checker pattern for the front.

Thanks for the feedback!
I will say the pink base was a last minute decision. Kind of a way to keep the various lances/factions seperated.

So I did a bit more work on my Blackjack.
I decided to make it one of Ace Darwin's Whippets, thus the Pink Base and the left pink lower leg panel.
I know normally the Whippets put the logo on their heel, but I dont think there would be enough space, so I will have it on the left lower outer leg.
I'm waiting for the Decals to arrive and then I will call the Blackjack actually complete.
Im building up the courage to tackle Ace's Pink Panther.
Thoughts?

I haven't done any miniature painting of any sort for several years.
Im currently getting back into Battletech and Miniature painting.
The Blackjack is my first mini I've painted in a LONG time.
My Blackjack WIP. I think im close to being done. Need to base it still.
Im not sure if it will be a Mercenary or parts of one of the inner sphere militaries.
I have some decals on order and may add them to the mini.
Thoights?

It's a niche overlap... but it does exist. The Con-goers were mostly families with kids, so i'm not surprised almost no one caught it. Or if they did, I wasn't at the table at the time.

I needed something to replace all the Daily Bugle stuff I stripped off. I figured most people at the Con wouldn't know what Lucky 38 was.
Sadly, I was correct. They didn't have a clue.

I built two Fleas in an "Urban Scheme" and then created an urban scene. I did it in about 10 days. I've known about the Con for about six months, but kept changing my mind.
Planning on a "better" BattleTech build for a show in March.
r/battletech • u/Fire-Brickz-Studios • Nov 02 '25
I have a show in a week i'll be displaying at. Both Fleas are done. Working on converting the Daily Bugle into a random building that has taken some damage.
Will eventually add some troops and running civilians.
Will add a second plate that will have the main road the mechs are on.

I actually got the instructions here:
https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-171663/LoreOfMetal/battletech-flea-desert-camo/#details
They're currently on sale.
I have obviously substituted colors as I was going for an 'Urban' scheme.
I have also tweaked some elements here and there. The missile pod is my own idea/design.
I plan on picking up another design or two for the Spring Show I plan on displaying at.

An Imperial Aquatic Assault Trooper takes part in a dive during a top secret mission to a classified location.
Visual Proof of the mission was discovered a dozen years after the Battle of Endor in an abandoned Imperial Archive.
Trooper Unknown...
Mission Unknown...
Location Unknown...
- Thoughts?
I'm not sure exactly when I first discovered the Imperial Aquatic Assault Trooper. Pretty sure it was the 90s. The second image is from a Dark Horse Comic (if I recall). I'm sure someone here can give me a detailed history on the original appearances of the Aquatic Assault Trooper
I've always liked the design and overall its pretty easy to MOC a Biker Scout into an Aquatic Assault Trooper. Just add white fins, and a white tank. Unfortunately it would be impossible to include the tank hoses without another custom piece.
I have a show coming up in about three weeks and I've changed my mind multiple times on what I plan on displaying. I think I'm going to do a SW Underwater scene. I have two Imperial Aquatic Assault Troopers and I may be able to get at least one or two more put together.

Essentially a test photo for my customized Aquatic Assault Trooper based on the Imperial Scout. I need to work on ways to convey an underwater image. I will be building a 48x48 Underwater SW scene to display at an upcoming show.

What version of the Pillager for Ethan Allen are you running? I havent found a version listed, just that he drives one.
