Quick & Easy Alpine Camo | Battletech Painting Tutorial 

This is a neat camouflage pattern and the technique gives a worn appearance to the model. Thanks for sharing this.

RU-vid needs more Camo Specs videos and so do I. I really enjoy watching these, and learning painting tricks. Maybe sometime you can paint some basic infantry?

This looks super easy.

This got me some amazing results, needed a snow biome company. Not only for alpine but also some hot pink and neon blue Canopus lunar mercs.

Wow, that looks fantastic. I prefer the look with more white myself. Definitely going to try this out. Thanks!

I paint all my mechs in camo. If I do House colors, then the model is kind of locked in when it comes to scenarios. With camo, it's a freelancer. Painting in camo also feels more creative.

I really like the results you've both achieved. These techniques produce the look I prefer. I'll have to try priming in white (or, maybe light grey) and black washing, again. Haven't done it in decades, since I found it easier to prime with black, and work from deeper/darker, to outer/lighter. Thanks for the demo. The mechs look excellent.

I use basically the same process for my merc unit! Will definitely try drybrushing after adding the camo next time. Great work as always!

Great stuff. I'll have to give this a shot for Tundra Galaxy for Rasalhague Dominion

Absolutely love this. I need to try it out!

Your tutorials are truly top notch! ❤️

Keep it coming sirs. Always great content!

This looks fun I might paint up the new alpha strike box with this one

That marauder is nice 👌

I liked the look before drybrushing more than after. Would skip the drybrushing for this method.

❤👍🏻

Did you get a new microphone? Your voice sounds MUCH better in this video than the last one I watched. Love your content, btw :) Keep it coming! You ever think of painting something like Astra Militarum mechs from 40k? (not that I don't love Battletech!)

That Mech Warrior 2 Color Scheme though.

Do you have other winter camo videos? I like this one, but couldn't find any searching for winter camo.

I love to match camo schemes for my mechs based on the cultural background of the house or inner sphere state. For the clans, I tend to do something similar with some touches of the clans primary colors on arms legs, and so forth. Never been a big fan of house or clan specific colors or camo schemes.

Could you use a sponge instead of "stipling brush" to get the stripes?

Could this technique be an alternative way of doing the GDL camo scheme?

I'd like to request a merc 'mech paint job video. Newly subbed and coming from the BattleTech PC game where player is a mercenary team trying to stay one step ahead of its creditors. As I understand the BT lore, there are basically no new bright, shiny 'mechs being built as the expertise, tech, and industrial capacity have been essentially lost. Based on those game mechanics, mercenary 'mechs are ad hoc - armor - and arms and legs - frequently get blasted off and have to be replaced while travelling between jobs with salvage or whatever can be bought. I figure that 'Mechs in a merc lance are going to look like a shade-tree mechanic's car: functional, but not uniform in paint scheme, dirty, greasy, blackened areas on the armor from jump jets, and slug and missile launchers. Any uniform color or logo, identifying the merc group would be on a small area that a technician would just slap on real quick and the paint would still be wet as the 'mech dropped to earn that next paycheck. I'd like to see a paint job like that, please...

Came here to say FIRST. Another great video!

Fantastic work - love the end result :) What is the round makeup brush you use?

Gotta try this out some point in the future, it looks like it's a lot of fun! But I've got a question regarding decals... I used some for the first time and I am now a little afraid they might slip off at some point in the future, is there a way to make them adhere better? Also the shape of mechs sometimes makes it hard to place a decal, you might end up with a recessed line underneath the decal, what is the most convenient way to deal with that? Place the decal and then cut it with a sharp knife or something?

Do we prime with white?

Your secretary needs to get you some new brushes. :)
