Let's just get this out of the way up front: Shadow Hawks suck. There, I said it and with that out of the way let's move on.
I bought these from Reddogminis.com (who is having a sale it seems, so more minis are on the way). These two (three actually, I have one set aside for Nick 2.0) showed up within a week and flawlessly cast. Plus there are two arm options allowing for slightly different posing. Not much more to say than that so I'll just show off some my pics of these two.
Alternate arm options
I left the LRM-5 off of this one and covered up the SRM launcher to use as a Primitive Shadow Hawk.
The Desert force Shadow Hawk, painted, sealed and ready to get dirty...
...and dirty it is! Slathered in the AK streaking grime.
After a 10ish minute pause, the excess grime is removed via mineral spirits and severl Q-tips and here ya go! Easy peasy (and why the desert force has exploded in size so quickly).
The primitive got the same treatment, but it is not as noticble on OD green as it is on the wraithbone primer. This one is painted for my 65th Lyran Regulars.
Callsign: Daisy, with the decals to match
Yes Votann players, it is a daisy. Get over it.
Finished Desert Force Shadow Hawk.
The 9th mech in the unit, there will be a full mech company in no time!
And they said Nuln oil was liquid talent...bah!
Two more, ready to go!
