ERRATA: In this video, I referred to Dafydd and myself as "very responsible men in our 30s." Dafydd would like to point out that he is, in fact, 28. Guy would like to point out that he is, in fact, not very responsible.
Hearing Guy say the words 'AC 20' and 'SRM 6' made me far more excited than I thought. I beg you, please. Please, do more Battletech content. Failure to do so may result in a 'customer service' call to ComSta -- I mean, RUclips. ♥
Let me add my voice to the choir asking for a large-scale Timber Wolf next! It's only fair to paint the most iconic Clan mech to pair off against the most iconic Inner Sphere mech. Imagine the rules too: 40 frag missiles, three lascannons, two heavy lascannons, and two heavy stubbers. And that's just the Prime variant... The TBR-D would come with two plasma decimators and 24 Krak missiles, a dozen facing forwards and another facing backwards
There's going to be a readily available large scale Timberwolf in a few months, though sadly not THAT large. The most recent Battletech kickstarter had a 4 inch tall timberwolf included in every pledge
The best thing about the Steiner Scout Lance joke is that Steiner commanders are mostly incompetent rich assholes, so it makes *perfect* sense that they'd pick a mech that seems intimidating when it's really useless in practice. It'll rip your arms off... eventually... if you stop moving...
That base blue paint is amazingly rich. The Atlas is a very cool model; well done everyone involved in designing, printing and painting it. Patron Covert Sandwich's username really made me giggle.
I think the FDM worked out really well for this model. The slight bit of layer lines you didn't manage to hide give it more of a metal feel than something perfectly smooth.
BattleTech was my first tabletop minis love. It was great to see you paint the big Atlas, and I wouldn't mind seeing some standard BattleTech minis in the future... heck, or even some other giant robots!
Funny enough, your guide to the robot from Blackstone Fortress back in the day was how I learned to paint my Battletech mechs back when I first started painting. Now with you painting Battletech and me painting Warhammer, it's come a weird full circle!
Gesso for the initial layer is such a clever idea! A friend gifted me a large scale Rifleman that he printed, but I struggled to figure out how to handle those layer lines and shelved it. Thanks for giving the project the shot in the arm it needed.
PLEASE more Battletech, I just got into it and I'd love to see more of your amazing content! Especially all the amazing lore you keep dropping in, I learned a lot!
Being of an older vintage myself, I have a huge soft spot for 'Mechs. And related to that specific vintage, my favourite is the Mad Cat / Timber Wolf. It was a fun game where as your mech got hit you filled up damage slots until bits became non-operational. Worst was when your cooling system got damaged. Then you were really screwed! This turned out great - thank Guy and everyone at Midwinter!
Love battletech and am excited to see you paint more! Growing up, I always got my merc outfit to 4 atlas' in MW3, and always felt so cool dropping into a fray. This brought back some good memories! King Crab next!
Love Battletech/Mechwarrior! I've been playing all the PC games since the first game out and I even used to play the Battletech tabletop game with the little minis. Great to see a video about them! Go Rammstein!!
Serendipitously you released this video the day CGL completed its latest Battletech kickstarter campaign. I am thrilled to see you paint such a massive scaled mech! I've often wondered how a mech would look in 40k scale and I am not disapointed. Please keep up the Battletech content!
More please! As much as I've enjoyed your WH40k content, I would love to see you branch out into more of the sci-fi universes you love. Personally, I love to see your take on Homeworld stuff. (The concept art is just beautiful. I could spend hours just poring over it.)
Haven't heard of your channel before, but am interested for tips and tricks painting my Battletech minis. Thought I'd let you know the algo decided to show non-WH40k viewers your stuff! I'd love to see the timber wolf done on the same scale!
Mate the layer lines that are still visible literally HELP sell the scale of this Monstrous Mech!!! Like huge wrought iron panels or something!!??!! Love this!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I would absolutely LOVE to see more Battletech painting on the channel. I've been getting into the games again and I'd love to see how you work in a different scale and universe.
This was a joy and I'd love to see more Battletech content. Most of the Battletech content out there is on the lore or the video games, and more videos delving into the tabletop and miniatures would be great.
this is so awesome, I actually 3d printed out an Atlas for a smaller diorama I just made. My first dio ever. Also thats one of the cleanest filament prints ive ever seen. Did a great job on that.
LOVE THIS! super refreshing to see some battletech content on your channel. It would be so epic to have a battletech army in heroic size and have some games! You did a great job
As Battletech was my first love mini game back in the early 80's I really enjoyed this video. Would love to see you paint up a few of the battle packs or one of box sets.
I enjoy your exploration of you old favorites and it inspires me to look into areas of the hobby I have not seen before. Guy keep doing what you are doing I enjoyed the retro Warhammer and Judge Dredd videos.
Wonderful video Guy, it's so fantastic seeing my favourite tabletop series shown some big scale love on your channel! I'd love to see you make some 6mm scale dioramas of Battletech some day, we don't really see enough 6mm scale terrain dioramas and I reckon you could make some really cool stuff! Also perfect timing dropping this in the last 24 hours of the Battletech Kickstarter!
I would love to see some more universes get painted! The battletech stuff seems cool, would love to see something like the start collecting battles with it? Even just a one off. Also next time you get any fdm prints try using scrapers and files instead of sanding, works much better!! Also there are some amazing patreon 3d model producers, I would to see your style of painting used to bring them and some of their creators some publicity!
excelenty painted steiner scoutmech hope to see more BT videos, both heroic and normal scale, would be very funny to see a Jenner ( best light mech ) scale compared to a leman russ
I love it!! I switched from a brief stint of 40K in 1991 back to Battletech as it was too hard to get me and my impoverished friends into 40K & Battletech clearly had better rules and game system in place. In fact it was remarkably balanced system for creating your own custom mech with sweet spots around every 15 tons or so between movement/heat/bigger guns.
Only Battletech stuff i ever had interest in, was the 90s Cartoon which i loved!! The Axman mech of that era is ingrained on my mind and i feel i should hunt a model of it down to paint up like the cartoon. Just for the shits n giggles ofc! Great job on the mech Guy!
I got Great News from the New Battletech Mercenaries Kickstarter there is a Summerset Strikers Force Pack that is Just the Mechs from the 90's TV Show. So its it's exactly what you're looking for, won't be out for quite a while but keep an eye out for it.
Loving this Guy!!! 🤟 Battletech is a favorite universe of mine and this is awesome to see! The universe has such deep lore and I like the more rooted in “realism” side of it and the cassette futurism styling… it’s just so cool 😂
This is incredible! What an amazing 3D print job, and equally great painting! I was smiling through the whole video 😃 When you started talking about paint jobs, I was muttering to myself with my fingers crossed that it had to be Steiner, and got a funny look from the other half when I loudly proclaimed a "Yes!" as their Blue Fist hit the screen.
The Alpha Strike Starter Box is the best place to start if you're jumping in from Warhammer. Alpha Strike plays similar to old editions of Kill Team, The box comes with well balanced forces a full tables worth of terrain and rules that should have you playing in a few hours. Classic Battletech is another Ball Game that takes a lot of dedication to really get into, If you're into Warhammer and want fast pick up games stick to Alpha Strike but if you're into D&D and really want to put yourself into the action Classic is always worth a try. But you will need a short list of extras like a box of White, Red, Black and Yellow dice, Dry Erase markers laminated page holders and a Binder to keep all your sheets.. and a working printer your going to be printing a ton of pages.
Guy doing Battletech, and at heroic scale to boot? Sign me the fuck up. Stunning result. The ragged paint on the skull and glowing eyes really sell it as a terrifying war machine, and the Steiner scheme was a wonderful choice. Gorgeous model. Would love to see more!
ERRATA: In this video, I referred to Dafydd and myself as "very responsible men in our 30s."
Dafydd would like to point out that he is, in fact, 28.
Guy would like to point out that he is, in fact, not very responsible.
😆😆😆
Hey Midwinter, you think you could make a Skaven Army?
Where can we get one of these Atlas models???
Urban mech?
Mavericks Paint is an awesome guest to have over, his skills and tips are like no other for sure!
The Steiner scout lance, where weirdly enough everywhere they scout turns out to have 'just' been wiped out before they got there.
Just like a Warhound, scouting the smoking crater where the enemy was is still scouting!
If there is no one left alive to report then it counts as stealth
It's going to be one of those days
More Battletech, please! The community needs your talented hands!
For real
Seconded! more battletech
+1
Great to see Guy doing 1/4 of Steiner scout lance in this video XD
This! So much this!
my vote for King Crab
Hearing Guy say the words 'AC 20' and 'SRM 6' made me far more excited than I thought.
I beg you, please. Please, do more Battletech content. Failure to do so may result in a 'customer service' call to ComSta -- I mean, RUclips. ♥
Warhammer or not, Guy surely knows how to excite us with titans.
Let me add my voice to the choir asking for a large-scale Timber Wolf next! It's only fair to paint the most iconic Clan mech to pair off against the most iconic Inner Sphere mech. Imagine the rules too: 40 frag missiles, three lascannons, two heavy lascannons, and two heavy stubbers. And that's just the Prime variant... The TBR-D would come with two plasma decimators and 24 Krak missiles, a dozen facing forwards and another facing backwards
Truly a masterpiece of clan technology!
There's going to be a readily available large scale Timberwolf in a few months, though sadly not THAT large. The most recent Battletech kickstarter had a 4 inch tall timberwolf included in every pledge
That Atlas looks like a fine addition to any Steiner Scout Lance.
Just two more and a Akuma who is totally not a Kuritan spy, no siree bob
The best thing about the Steiner Scout Lance joke is that Steiner commanders are mostly incompetent rich assholes, so it makes *perfect* sense that they'd pick a mech that seems intimidating when it's really useless in practice. It'll rip your arms off... eventually... if you stop moving...
@@colbyboucher6391to be fair if one makes it long range and give it a skilled pilot it works pretty well
@@colbyboucher6391ut yeah I totally agree with you they probably should have picked maybe an Orion or warhammer could work as a hang back heavy hitter
There is such a thing called spray filler primer that works really well with pla prints, as long as you have the time to sand everything lol
That’s what I use. Works pretty well.
That base blue paint is amazingly rich. The Atlas is a very cool model; well done everyone involved in designing, printing and painting it.
Patron Covert Sandwich's username really made me giggle.
It's refreshing to see someone cover Battletech. Hope to see more! They have some amazing mech designs in there.
While the Atlas is iconic, Guy should have done a WHM-6R Warhammer just for the confusion factor
I've started into the Battletech hobby just this past month - I'm glad to see you covering it!
I think the FDM worked out really well for this model. The slight bit of layer lines you didn't manage to hide give it more of a metal feel than something perfectly smooth.
Thank you. Awesome video. Please paint more minis. Keep up the good work.
I love the beginning of your Steiner Scout Lance, can't wait to see if more appear!
What a beautiful scout mech, love it!
BattleTech was my first tabletop minis love. It was great to see you paint the big Atlas, and I wouldn't mind seeing some standard BattleTech minis in the future... heck, or even some other giant robots!
I want to see a 40K scale Imperator Titan.
@@WarhammerWings Eric's Hobby Workshop is making one! ruclips.net/video/-VgjqNmKPEE/видео.html
Funny enough, your guide to the robot from Blackstone Fortress back in the day was how I learned to paint my Battletech mechs back when I first started painting. Now with you painting Battletech and me painting Warhammer, it's come a weird full circle!
OMG, we need to see a Timberwolf model at this scale! 😮❤
That blue is indeed gorgeous.
Have you seen bluest blue by the guy who did the pink pigment powder? That's *really* gorgeous
I haven't seen it in the flesh, but I'd like to try it!
@@MidwinterMinisThere's also YInMn Blue, which is potent.
Gesso for the initial layer is such a clever idea! A friend gifted me a large scale Rifleman that he printed, but I struggled to figure out how to handle those layer lines and shelved it. Thanks for giving the project the shot in the arm it needed.
I love to see scout mechs being painted! Bravo, and don’t forget to pay your bills!
PLEASE more Battletech, I just got into it and I'd love to see more of your amazing content! Especially all the amazing lore you keep dropping in, I learned a lot!
I'm unreasonably happy that you're into Battletech - I'd love to see more content related to it in the future!!!
Man this is such a great video. I am all for more Battletech content!!!!

Definitely more Battletech, I just recently found out about and want to play it
Love battletech and am excited to see you paint more! Growing up, I always got my merc outfit to 4 atlas' in MW3, and always felt so cool dropping into a fray. This brought back some good memories!
King Crab next!
That's brilliant Guy ! More Mechwarrior / Battletech on the channel would be amazing 🎉

Probably gonna paint my redemptor like this, Thanks!
Always happy to see Battletech. One of my most beloved Sci fi settings and games on the tabletop and Mechwarrior.
That's awesome!
So nice to see some Battletech representation! Thank you!
11:51 Oh, that's just perfect! Brilliant video man. Love it.

You know its a good day when midwinter minis makes a new video and i of course watch it
this is so awesome, I actually 3d printed out an Atlas for a smaller diorama I just made. My first dio ever. Also thats one of the cleanest filament prints ive ever seen. Did a great job on that.
That. Is. Gorgeous! Thank you so much!
More BattleTech please!
As a fan of both series lore, I really love this, and would absolutely love to see more of it!
LOVE THIS! super refreshing to see some battletech content on your channel. It would be so epic to have a battletech army in heroic size and have some games! You did a great job

This is awesome! Huge fan of battletech and would love to see more videos from the battletech universe.
LOVE IT! You need to do more Battletech videos!! This was so much fun :) Fantastic paint job, including your freehand fist!
I enjoy your exploration of you old favorites and it inspires me to look into areas of the hobby I have not seen before. Guy keep doing what you are doing I enjoyed the retro Warhammer and Judge Dredd videos.
PMW (Polygon Masterworks) made that model, really cool to see it printed at this size, the details really shine.
Wonderful video Guy, it's so fantastic seeing my favourite tabletop series shown some big scale love on your channel! I'd love to see you make some 6mm scale dioramas of Battletech some day, we don't really see enough 6mm scale terrain dioramas and I reckon you could make some really cool stuff!
Also perfect timing dropping this in the last 24 hours of the Battletech Kickstarter!
This was really cool and it fits so well because i JUST backed the battletech kickstarter for a bunch of minis. Can't wait to paint them too
Awesome! I love Battletech and would love more of it from your channel.
Absolutely love Battletech and hope you do make more videos about it!
This is amazing! Please, more Battletech on the channel!
Amazing!
i had no idea that battletech had so much history... i'm tempted to give the books ago. i can imagine the lore is sick in this world.
Definitely want to see more battletech content from you Guy, this was amazing!
So happy for some Battletech content! Would love to see some more mini painting for the new Catalyst game.
Thanks for posting the link to Still Tower! I bought prints from his old store a few years ago and thought he had gone inactive.
I would love to see some more universes get painted! The battletech stuff seems cool, would love to see something like the start collecting battles with it? Even just a one off. Also next time you get any fdm prints try using scrapers and files instead of sanding, works much better!!
Also there are some amazing patreon 3d model producers, I would to see your style of painting used to bring them and some of their creators some publicity!
It looks great. And that freehand fist is awesome.
excelenty painted steiner scoutmech
hope to see more BT videos, both heroic and normal scale, would be very funny to see a Jenner ( best light mech ) scale compared to a leman russ
Oh I love that, I'd be thrilled to see more battletech from you!
Always a pleasure watching one of these videos, especially when you mention Rammstein within 30 seconds of this one!
I love it!!

My favorite youtube artist showing love to my favorite game. This is a good day.
Battletech is having a pretty big resurgence atm so good to see some!
Oh hell yes, I love battletech so much, thank you for this
Excellent Video! Looking forward to seeing more battletech content.
Only Battletech stuff i ever had interest in, was the 90s Cartoon which i loved!! The Axman mech of that era is ingrained on my mind and i feel i should hunt a model of it down to paint up like the cartoon. Just for the shits n giggles ofc!

Really excellent job guy. I loved playing the MechWarrior games growing up. More battle tech projects please, Mad Cat maybe?
Are you kidding me?! Rammstein and BattleTech?! I LOVE YOU. Thank you for including BT on MWM!!!!!!!!!
This was my favorite video from you in a long while! I like it a lot
For some reason I didn’t see this in my timeline? Glad you put a post up about it keep up the good work
Awesome! It's nice to see video about other things than 40k.
For sure more BattleTech! Excellent work also.
Lovely tank, I mean tech-mech thing. I remember playing a lot of one of the computer games a long time ago. And thanks for sharing the art!
Loving this Guy!!! 🤟 Battletech is a favorite universe of mine and this is awesome to see! The universe has such deep lore and I like the more rooted in “realism” side of it and the cassette futurism styling… it’s just so cool 😂
2/3rds of a year later, still eagerly waiting for more BT content. Been loving your stuff since painting with the family.
We need more Battletech. ❤
Always such distinctive and innovative stuff. Nice one
I LOVE Battletech! Really nice to see and inspiring. Time to look for a King Crab STL.
First time viewer here. I gotta say, that looks beautiful! Very satisfying to watch! Well done!
As an old fan of battletech, it's great to see it covered here!
This is incredible! What an amazing 3D print job, and equally great painting! I was smiling through the whole video 😃

YASSSSS my favourite mech painted in the scheme of my favourite house. Solid job man, looks awesome!
Battletech! My favourite sci-fi war setting of my teens!!! More pls!🙂
I don't know much about battletech, but I would love to see more stuff like this! good job as usual!
More Battletech is always welcomed! Maybe something with the Tashcan?
Urbie derby!!!
#NoCurbieDaUrbie
Great video! Also, that AK Blue really is beautiful. I let out an involuntary "ooh!" I've got to get me some of that
I have been getting curious about battletech recently but I am not sure where to start with it. I do like any painting video you do.
The Alpha Strike Starter Box is the best place to start if you're jumping in from Warhammer. Alpha Strike plays similar to old editions of Kill Team, The box comes with well balanced forces a full tables worth of terrain and rules that should have you playing in a few hours.
Classic Battletech is another Ball Game that takes a lot of dedication to really get into, If you're into Warhammer and want fast pick up games stick to Alpha Strike but if you're into D&D and really want to put yourself into the action Classic is always worth a try.

House Steiner battlemechs and Imperial Knights go incredible well together
OMG one of my favorite innersphere mechs! YUSSS
More of this!
Awesome result
Nice, great to see BT getting some love, hopefully catch you at WH fest
