Thank you very much! You're all very kind with your praise.

The left and the right mini in the second pic, are those Clix ones?

All but four of the minis began as 'clix, actually. Those specific two were originally the "Henchman" from the Infinity Challenge set and "Chase Stein" from the Hammer of Thor set, both with head swaps.

Thanks! The Agents of the Owl were actually inspired by the Lobster's agents from Dark Horse Comics, particularly after reading The Burning Hand. I liked the idea of a vigilante with a network of common citizens as his agents, much like the Shadow. Darque's Carnivale is something I've been tuning for a while. I still need to come up with a few good options for Minions, but other leagues need more attention right now. Still, half the fun has been coming up with different figures/acts to add. There's also something satisfying about having an interesting villain to run when everyone else wants to play the heroes.

Speaking of heroes, I couldn't resist taking a WIP shot of the next (almost) complete league, John Danger and his Danger Rangers:



Little by little, they're all coming together.

Yes, but there's a fair bit of conversion. It started life looking like this:



It's Dr. Mid-Nite from the Collateral Damage Heroclix set. I clipped the legs off right at the top of the boots and the rest of the body separates from the cowl and cape as one piece. Then it was a matter of replacing the boots and head, with some putty to smooth it all out.

Dangerboy's Pulp Alley Leagues: Yearly Update
« Reply #25 on: February 08, 2018, 08:56:50 PM »
It's been a long time since this thread saw any update, and I don't have an excuse beyond the inability to break my lurking habits. In that time I have managed to get some converting, assembling and painting done, finishing some leagues and adding a few bystanders and such to the collection.

So, to start, the leader of the Danger Rangers, John Danger:



And of course, his Danger Rangers:






A potential ally:




And a potential foe:




Finally, a few shady types:










There's a few more that need photos taken, and some more in the paint pipeline, so my next update should be more reasonably timed. Fingers crossed.
