I went back and forth on Myoto's Grand Dragon. There is no canon scheme listed, so I went with gray & gave her subtle details (number, cockpit & laser colors) to set her apart, but still fit

This one's kind of honorary...they captured it in the first book and mention having it in the second, but I don't know if they ever actually fielded it...but, hey - Marauder II

Second of two Timber Wolves. I'm really glad that, when setting aside minis for this project, I thought to grab two different Timby poses.

#COL will have a decent recovery drive but fail to get into the points. #HAD will be in the points off the line and will pass everyone but the #Mercs within 15 laps & stay there. #NOR, #PIA, #LEC & #GAS will be in a bunch for 8-10 laps but tire deg will take out the #Ferrari & #Alpine.

I like to picture this guy tripping over the streetlight at top speed.

This might be one of the dumbest things I've done for detail: I made a custom base with appropriate pegs for the jump version of the Shadow Hawk, even though it's 98% covered in jump form.

Kitten's Panther. I always felt this character was WAY too on the nose.

Next up is Rianna Rose's Phoenix Hawk. This is the metal mini so that I could give her the upgraded variant she canonically had.

After painting the Banshee, I revisited my #BlackThorns. Finished up the whole unit, as well as spruced up my existing ones with new bases, like this Charger.

Last blind box for my #Aces team was a Legendary MechWarrior one, and I pulled the Griffin GRF-2N.

This team is not one that I would put together on my own, and that excited me for this run

The other vehicle in the box was this Ontos, which ended up being the heaviest hitter on my team. I use this tank for several factions.
