Phoenix Hawk

o/

I finished this mini a few weeks ago and had posted it to a Battletech painting facebook group, but a blog post never materialized as my personal life imploded shortly thereafter. Honestly I'd forgotten about it entirely until stumbling across the pics in my dropbox just a little while ago.

It's evident from the poor state of the Andurien Hawk arm that the original mech was anything but new...

The second of my TBAGer mechs to sport their new color scheme, this mech is even more the worse for wear than the Catapult. Like said Catapult, it too sports several portions or recently repaired, primer grey armor plating. However going a step further, the left forearm has been salvaged in its entirety from the apparent wreck of an allied Andurien Defenders' Phoenix Hawk.  

Being a Robotech mini, it lacks the Phoenix Hawk's traditionally large torso mounted jump jets, however they are still at least represented.

Whilst the central red stipe is easily visible, the unit logo patch is MIA because I had forgotten about it until after the mini was 'done', no doubt having been previously painted on one of the now recently replaced armor plates/arm.
