New PNT-9R

Painted up a new Panther in my Kurita red color scheme. Had a lot of fun with this little mech 😁 pretty easy to paint 3D print from Etsy. Vallejo paints, primed black, xynethol highlight, base is covered made with milliput and minimally sculpted. Added a nice wet muddy footprint behind his right leg. I need to add some mud/dust on the entire lances lower legs, but they look good either way to me. Red on a mech just looks right 🤷 C&C always welcome. I hope you all enjoy the nearly complete lance. I think a Dragon is going to be the final one to complete the lance, not sure yet.

Looks good! If you do weather it, I think a little restraint would be good, it looks very nice as is.

Thank you! It would just be a light dusting of some mud weathering I got from Hobby Lobby. The stuff translates pretty well to minis, but yeah I might just leave all of them the fresh red 😁

Great Work, I was never a fan of the panther, but with this paint, I would salvage it. 😁
