Excellent.

So I guess these are some kind of alternate reality supers.

I think that's Superwoman, one of the (probably many) evil alternate reality versions of Wonder Woman.

Damn...

This could be the best brushwork I've ever seen. Best Supers I've ever seen, that's for sure. The "gaming standard" ones are miles above anything I'll ever paint! Can't wait to see some more.

Thanks, I appreciate the comments.

I switched to using synthetic brushes only, something I wanted to do a long time ago but was worried that my painting would suffer. It's hard enough trying to earn a living as a miniature painter without putting myself at a disadvantage. The first couple of weeks were slow going but I made adjustments, learnt a few new techniques and I'd say now I'm a better painter.

Here is the Zod squad

And a tutorial of how I painted them

I was sent this Killer Croc model from Monolith as a promotion for their upcoming kickstarter campaign. Given the more comic book style of the sculpt I thought I'd give him an appropriate painting.
