Mecha Front Cougar review

So my kickstarter for Mecha Front from MechaFront.com started to arrive.  The Black Frost Mecha are the ones that called to me the most.  The first one to arrive was my 3 pack of Cougars.  Big pieces of resin, I can't believe I'm waiting for the larger model to arrive.  The model also came with magnets (not sure if it was because of the KS or they're going to include them in every pack)

The tools I used to remove the flash and blocks on the model where the resin is poured into the mold.  They are on every resin model and I'm surprised they (the blocks) aren't bigger for a model this size.

The legs glue into the feet and the the legs around the pelvis easy.  Also fairly easy to see if the model will stand upright or have a lean on it at this point.  A very pleasant assembly.  Each torso the attaches to the center mass.  I went for some extra weapon mounts in the KS so I'm going to be using the tiny magnets.

Autocannons, Lasers, missile packs and bean weapons.  Lots to choose from!
Each weapon required very minimal clean up.

Silly me assembled quite a few with the magnets backwards.  I'll have to go back and fix that after I find my "un cure" bottle of glue.  But here one of them is with the laser and autocannon attached.

Very nice work from Mecha Front.

LordNth's first blog post

So I finally started a blog.
Finally have something to blog about.
Let's try and work this out.  I'd gladly like feed or suggestions how to make this better.

So a friend of mine actually sculpts. Good stuff.
Here's one of his latest sculpts.

It's based on the artwork from David White (Mecha Zone) for the Mad Cat II enchanced.

It's made to be used with the 10mm game Mech Warrior or as a Mecha in 15mm games.  Either way it works quite well.

This picture shows it assembled with out side armor plates on the legs.

Some careful removal of the parts with a saw or clippers is needed.  Minor flash clean up.
The details came out great.

Legs were in one piece.  I added a pin to the place where it attaches to the torso.

Attached the missiles and arms.  The arms are designed to be glued in many positions including slightly pivoted in or out.  The missiles do require a little fill in where removed from the sprues.  Easy to do.  But I haven't found the time to hunt where I put my filler.  Drilled a simple hole to put the pin in.

A fantastic model.  I hope to have a painted one soon.

Here it is next to it's plates and a Khurasan 15mm figure on a penny.
