A new CAV I've been sitting on for awhile and just got 'round to finishing. I actually started trying to pay more attention to sensible faction assignment; I know CAV doesn't require it, but it helps to have your minis make sense. The Butcher was built by Gunder House, and according to the books, Gunder House's main client is the Malvernis Empire. Not only that, Gunder House holds a grudge and refused to sell equipment to anyone who opposed the Malvernis Empire...including the Terrans and Rach. So Malvernis insignia seemed best for this guy.

Very nice... even if it is a Malvie.

That is fantastic. I am not that familiar with the CAV universe, but it sounds a lot like Battletech, which I used to game in during the 80's. One of these days I need to try painting some of these.

Very cool paintjob, especially the windows. I still can't do those at all.

Wow! The fine detail of those "taxi-cab" checkers is kind of intimidating (in terms of, boy, that must have been hard to paint!). :D I love the rich green of the body and the gem-like red of the cockpit glass!
