Mercs: Recon – CPP-209

This walker is one of the add-ons I bought from the Mercs: Recon kickstarter all those years ago. It shared the fate of so many minis and went to the tin- and polymer-mountain.
 Gaming-pal Thomas sealed its fate when he started babbling about some unpainted post-apocalypse minis he had. So, instead of a shiny-corporate-death-machine-look I gave this a more run-down appearance to fit that kind of setting.
So, this is especially for you, Thomas, as an encouragement to unbox your Ghosts of Gaia figures and give them the paintjob they deserve! 
CPP-209 is up for a fight.

  1. A nice mini. Perhaps some `spot' colour to help bring out some details. Missile ends in white or black, guns in silver.sensor eyes in yellow maybe.Just to add some more visual ooomph

    1. Could do, but probably won't. When it comes to Mercs everything gets a very basic paintjob as I just want to get them done and ready for play.
      BTW, he's on a 50mm base, so it's a rather big dude

    2. Put some red numbers on him. Surely you have some decals lying about?

    1. That's a good idea. To my surprise there are quite a lot of really nice minis there.
