DZC: Luciana Cato in her Ferrum


It’s been a while since I’ve painted any Dropzone Commander.  I’ve heard good things about the Ferrum.  Well, good things from UCM players.  Others seem kind of grumpy sometimes.  There was talk of a Famous Commander game day at Endgame, so I figured I’d get the Luciana Cato version of the Ferrum, which could be played either way.

This model is so long that it’s awkward to frame in the Spinomatic.

When I opened the package, it was missing the track bits!  I contacted support, and Hawk sent out replacements in a reasonable amount of time.  I briefly considered temping in some Sabre chassis, but the turret hole doesn’t match, so I decided to just wait.

The drones thin little single-piece resin models.  I took the easy way out for the cockpit blister.  Just drybrushing.  It doesn’t look as good as a smooth highlight, but it was fast and looks nice enough.
