Painting Lyran Commonwealth - Super Quick Battletech! [How I Paint Things]

I've held off on Battletech for a while because I was never sure which of the mechs actually looked any good to me - and don't let's get stuck on the Urbanmech! - but after finally grabbing a blind box and pulling out a Griffin, y'know what?
