hm. I feel my creativity itching again...
If i rebuild a Mech to become an USB hub... imagine what possibilities House Steiner (quality assault strategies since 2408) would gain...

For example: Combine a Mech with an usb fan, usb light,  usb missilelauncher, usb microwave and usb heated slippers. That would be the ultimate weapon.

You get a Mech-chopper with search light, AA, kitchen and  anti-cold-feet-device [spoiler]the ladies will freak out[/spoiler]
 :D

P.S. I'm only concerned about one thing: Will there be wireless USB in 3050?

Yes, you're right; I had used a toothpick for the camouflage pattern on the white MadCat. Its better and easier than using a sharp brush!

New idea- would I be able to use an external hard drive to add RAM and/or improve gigahertz?

The Hellbringer is still a work in progress, it still needs a wash and red missiles painted.

The Lightray is complete, Painted in Word of Blake 43rd Shadow Division colors. Sadly I have no WoB decals : (

The Raptor II is complete. Painted in Light of Mankind colors, the military wing of the Word of Blake ROM.

So far, I'm loving the Raptor II the most of all my mini's. The colors really go well and I like the Word to boot.

No clue how my ghost hand managed to get in the last pic though...

the raptor's invisibility tech rubbed off on you

When dry brushing I brush my palm or wrist until I can barely see any white or gray. Then I just ise light fast strokes over parts that would normally be weathered.

For a wash, put a drop of dish soap in about 1-2 Tbsp. water, then add black paint and mix. Apply to mini. Smooth out any bubbles. The soap causes the black paint to collect in the cracks, bringing out all the details and gives the mech a weathered look.
