Title: UVS: Hellboy stuff.
Post by: Ultravanillasmurf on April 21, 2019, 07:35:22 AM

At Salute I bought the retail version of the board game.

This is not the first time I have bought Hellboy games, I do own the GURPS: Hellboy rules/background book and the corresponding Steve Jackson box of figures.

When I was buying the new game, I also had a rummage in the freebie box, and pulled out a Johann Krauss figure.

Now in the Kickstarter there was a clear resin effect marker of Krauss. As I had a "spare" figure, I decided that would be a good use.

NOTE: This is a Freebie Figure and should not be viewed as reflecting the quality of the retail figures.

I will have a shot of the one out of the box later today.
There is a noticeable mould line down the right arm and across the chest. I say noticeable, I did not actually notice it during preparation, it was only after painting that I did notice it.

The figure was sprayed with Humbrol White, followed by a wash with Citadel NightHaunt Gloom and a dry brush with Citadel Ceramite White.

And for Captain Blood, the contractual William Killian scale comparison.

Freebie and Retail versions.

There is a slight mould line across the top of the pocket and across the vest, but it is only noticeable at magnification.
