Great looking gang and I like the idea of the ladies looking after him.
Who wouldnt?



I have that Kingpin somewhere and I may have to find him now......

Very nice gang. I just received an order from Copplestone that included the Gun Molls. Nice figures.


As already mentioned, your purples are great.  I tend to struggle with purple personally.

Start with your basic purple. To do the shading lighten the base colour using a very pale bone colour. White will work with the red pigment within the purple and will tend towards pink. Light Bone won't do this. It will just lighten the purple nicely.

Love the Kingpin repaint. I've seen alot of him and that sculpt looks great when redone. The purple jacket makes him feel just "pimpish" enough as well. Amusingly, I saw a guy wearing a very similar jacket in person the other day.
