Mech Picture Original casting
I used this mech to help develop the paint scheme for the Umayyad 1st Corps (which is now a canon scheme featured on CamoSpecs Online). The official scheme reads:
The Mechwarriors of the 1st Corps paint their machines in a bright yellow with teal trim. Flowing patterns of purples or blues are often added.
The scheme was inspired by the dress of the Spanish Moors from the 13th century AD.

STATUS: Custom job, delivered 12/2004.


Mech Picture Box set casting
This Orion was painted in a 3-tone aggressor camo scheme with Lyran markings.

STATUS: Custom job, completed 6/2003.


Mech Picture "Fire Command"
Original casting
This is the Orion mech, painted in a reddish-orange paint scheme with regimental checkering. The figure is one piece (unless modified, like the previous Orion), so that is why the arms are up like that.

STATUS: SOLD, July 2000.


Mech Picture "General Kerensky"
Original casting
The Orion was the favored command mech by General Kerensky of the old Star League, and this mini replicates his mech. The arms have been repositioned to make the mini look ready for battle. The mini carries the Star League emblem and drab camo. The overall effect is an imposing figure of what an Orion SHOULD look like.

STATUS: Sold, 10/1999.
