Blackjack Prototype Print

Here's another amazingly painted prototype print from Dale Eadeh.
So glad how the Blackjack came out every time I see it now. Looks so good in physical form. A chunky workhorse.

Looks like he's got coveralls on and red hat, ready to pick up a lunch pale and go to work.

I think mook mechs are underappreciated, often I think they have really cool and sleek designs, uninhibited by needing to fit a certain design mold and over detailing of the "hero mech".

Anthony Scroggins

I love it! Like you said, it retains the feel of the Blackjack while also having kind of a generic feel to it - a great workhorse or mook(depending on which side it's on) to bulk out a force!

Terence Harris

Pretty sure they're in progress. Covid really threw a wrench in IWMs operations as they were required to shut down for a while.

Anthony Scroggins

Any news on when or if Ironwind metals will be putting out metal versions of the updated mechs? Especially the ones from the Game of Armored Combat core game?

Tyler Erickson

I really like it, you can see the old style within the modern look.

Andrew McKenna

Bj sculpt that demands the respect it deserves

sooner, often, lately.

yeah.. and it was all a smear campaign anyhow. On one hand I love the fluff...on the other, this looks better (IMO). *sighs*

Benjamin Myers (Bishop Steiner)

no crime there. BH-O is criminally underrated, IMO

Some day, when home printing isn't a niche. If done right now it would decrease the physical sales of less popular mechs enough that it wouldn't be economical to make them in plastic/metal anymore, thus making them unavailable to anyone without a printer. Printing is cool, just not mainstream and accessible enough yet.

Anthony Scroggins

Nah that's just me slapping a 2 month auto public on stuff so that I don't have to manually make it public later. Content usually gets a CGL public news release in around that time.

Anthony Scroggins

Anthony I notice that each post has a count down of 65 days early, is there going to be a big revel for all the models coming?

Robert Moore

Actually it had narrow footpads and brittle armor, the QuickDraw had the bad ankles

Robert Moore

An STL Patreon or CGL STL store would be awesome. Mechs could be made in America and not subject to the issues of Chinese manufacture.

Isn’t the BJ supposed to have thin ankles, that’s what gave it the (unfounded) Bad Reputation quirk?

MajorTom

I like it. A lot. Everything but that filthy Overrated Sons paintjob... :p

Benjamin Myers (Bishop Steiner)

I’m loving this

Andrew Bethards

Yeah. I mean current scale would work for me. Just the same thing as these high quality versions that Dale has been getting. Although I wouldn’t argue with 10mm.

Cool. I can only imagine that the IS Omnis are a long way down the to-do list

Alex F

We did pull a little from the omni.

Anthony Scroggins

10mm scale resins would be cool IMO.

Anthony Scroggins

Very interesting there. Almost looks like a mix of elements from the original and Omni versions

Alex F

Nice. I still wish there were a “professional series” or something for those who would pay more for higher quality. I do understand there wouldn’t be any money made, but I can still wish. Lol. Nice mini, btw.
