Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Quick post something old you're proud of. These Vampires and zombies from Titan forge for sure. I really pushed myself to get good results. Plus it helped distract me while recovering from bad health issues. Lots learned here I used in my Vampire Counts Army. 082

Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I tried the new Warhammer Tone pro paint in the shop yesterday. My main review is: my god the brush in the store is bad I can't paint like this. 051
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Atlas stomping along to get you. #battletech #minipainting 0101
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/09/2026WIP on some Kurita Sword of Light mechs. #battletech 1171
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Battletech Eridani Light Horse/generic merc company painted up. My partner did a great job to make the bases look cool. #battletech #minipainting 0221
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Spent some time on the cockpitsl visors last night. Not done this a lot but happy with how they turned out. 173
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 07/09/2026I can't remember where my partner got it, but we made sure it had a variety of drawer sizes and fit where we keep it. We just wheel it to where we do hobby as flats too small for dedicated space. 210
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Today's progress. Got all the basics down just need to refine and base now. This scheme is based on the Eridani Light Horse so will work as... Quite a lot of units! #battletech #minipainting #wip 1261
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Back to painting some Battletech. #minipainting #battletech #wip 0323
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 24/07/2026I know that feeling. This was a collab with my partner, I did mostly details and she did basecoats and basing. I'm between this I did a random selection of Inner Sphere mechs. 110
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Clan mechs done. It's more than I can count. #battletech 25711
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 18/07/2026Ironwind metals minis assembled (excluding the arm for highlander which was missing.) Birthday gift from my partner. These are my five fave mechs. The Black Knight is maybe the coolest battletech mini. #battletech 070
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 28/06/2026Game went well today. But not for me. 2v2 game both my heavy and assault mech taken out in first two turns. Banshee Gauss to the head and the Marauder fell over and pilot got knocked unconscious. That's Battletech for you. My team won the game. Urban mech even got a kill with a kick! 0150
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/06/2026I love the Marauder but I don't think there's a good angle to photograph it from. 091
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/06/2026My Battletech trans pride lance is officially game ready. Wanna do some highlights and tidy up but got a game tomorrow with these. #battletech #minipainting 2211

I do not have sash windows, they are crittal style, there are not in window ac units that fit in those. Idk about the grid, my man. These are objective material realities for me. 4965766
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 22/06/2026It's perfect stealth armour. If enemy is looking for a black knight they will never spot it. Purple bird strong. 100
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Packing up my minis for moving from my display case. Huge variety of stuff here I've painted over the users. D&D, Warhammer 40k, Sigmar and Fantasy, WW2 stuff, random 3D prints and more. #minipainting 1101
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 15/06/2026A quick trip to GW today and got it nicely washed. I really need more blue paints I basically have none 0162
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 08/06/2026Went to pride this weekend with my girlfriend we accidentally had very different vibes. 000

Reposted by Lyra SilversShe Guevara @sheg7.bsky.social · 26/05/2026The awesome @paint-pot-pete.bsky.social has painted a team of primaris Intercessors in trans regalia. They will be auctioned individually to raise money for @essehouse.bsky.social later this year. 26913
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Then use some coloured Metallics for the lasers. The Dark Star Metallics in the photos are ones I used for this. 010
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/05/2026For the metals I paint them dark grey then Drybrush with oily steel (from ak? But any standard metal works). Wash with black. Then light Drybrush/highlights with a mix of the original metal and bright silver (chrome by valejo). I go harder on weapons than other metals so they stand out. 131
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 26/05/2026Some better pics of the Timber Wolves. These are testers for the bigger Clan force I'm helping my girlfriend paint up. #battletech #minipainting 2536
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 24/05/2026Took some better pics of the Comguard themed force. Ready to take done some Clanners and collect on overdue phone bills. #battletech #minipainting 2263
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 22/05/2026Yeah you would think just red shouldn't work but they always look so good! I really should paint some Lyran Guard. They are my fave faction and may help me get over my aversion to painting blue. 000
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 21/05/2026Painted a one of Dragon Battlemech in Kurita Sword of light colours and I think I will be doing more in this scheme. I will finish the base eventually. 1222

Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Not something either of us are familiar with, sorry. Idea was CMY colours for each unit. 000
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Helped my partner paint up 3 Timber Wolves for her Battletech Clan force. Each of the three parts of the Cluster? Has its own accent colour. 1462
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Keeping yo my tradition of finishing the paint job but taking weeks to do basing 🫡. Just need a Crab and the Comstar themed Battletech force is done. 1271
Lyra Silvers @lyrasilvers.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Prepping lots of Battlemech minis to paint. There's like a whole Battlemech battalion here (maybe a cluster it's mostly my gfs clan mechs). Mine will be a mix of Com Guard and mercs. 000
