So it's been suggested that Jaime Wolf's blue and gold paint scheme is based on a Clan Wolverine unit, which is hilarious, but I don't think it's canon.

#MechADay is off for another day because I can't deal with the news. Buy my 'Mechs; I'll keep an eye on DMs. (The first three posts have sold, so I'm starting with the first unsold group. Also sold are Victor Steiner-Davion's Dire Wolf and Aidan Pryde's Timber Wolf.) Otherwise, see y'all tomorrow.

No #MechADay today. It'll return tomorrow. Today, I need to ask for some support. If you're enjoying seeing these miniatures, then consider this: you can own them. To get through this rough patch, I'm selling my painted collection. Prices in this thread. If you like anything you see, please DM me.

BattleTech's Mobile Long Tom Artillery, a massive tracked vehicle toting an equally huge gun. It's so big, it takes up two hex bases. The front vehicle has four tracks and the titular Long Tom artillery piece. It's towing three smaller trailers, each with two tracks. The entire machine is painted in a tan desert camo scheme with red windows. The artillery piece itself is dirty silver.
