Battletech Owens - N-Scale
Posted by Warmuncher on Thursday, June 28, 2012 6:23 PM

This is a sculpt done by Jeff Richards.  This is an interpretation of the Battlemech Owens from Battletech.  I believe that he based his vision on the Mechwarrior 4 version of the robot.  He does most of the sculpts that I work on and goes by the name Orko_One over on LordsoftheBattlefield.com.  The mech is painted in the 1st Robinson Rangers colors.  The base is completely scratch built and painted by me. 

I know that the camera angle is a bit wierd for a few of the shots however overall I think this came out rather nicely.

Anyway, here are the photos:

Oh, stupid me.  The blue thing coming out of the base is water squirting out of the ground and running along the street into the rents in the pavements surface.  Just thought I would point that out. :)

It looks nicely painted. How big are these things? Wargaming tiny? How big is the base, inches or coin-sized?

The base is about 3 inches.  The mech itself is about 2 to 3 inches tall depending on it is posed.  These fit in just fine with 15mm wargaming figures and tanks.

So cool!! I love it! It's always neat to see the very few and far-between Battletech models build-up, not just the 1/300-ish scale old gaming minis. The base is great, it shows that the city is under attack, chaos and calamity everywhere, tore up streets, fire hydrants knocked off and water flowing into the street and I can almost hear gunfire and explosions! Excellent work! :)

Thank you.  This guy is closer to 1/200-1/144 scale than the typical Z-Scale that are the Iron Wind Metal Miniatures.  If you liked this model you will probably find these interesting as well:
