Marvel Crisis Protocol!

Love the gas station!

@Pattus Magnus: Thanks very much!

@Daeothar: Thanks very much! It's all metallics with minimal shading and highlighting. It was mostly an exercise in doing as little as possible, because meddling too much would have dulled the look I think. He's supposed to be an all shiny silvery dude (almost like liquid metal or mercury), which meant that I didn't want to see any brush strokes (if possible) or anything looking too "worked" on the surface. So overall: Yeah, metallics (not just my choice, but also the customer's. In general I use lots of NMM on these Marvel figures, because I think it fits the style, with just very few exceptions like Ultron and Thanos so far), with very careful little things done, like the blue reflections, some subtle shading and some highlights using very bright metal over white dots and slashes. All very delicate stuff, because the guy's supposed to have no texture to him at all. I think I said the same thing three times over now with different words. Oh well. But I hope I got the idea acros. Bascially: it's tricky.

@syrinx0: Cheers! Yeah, I like it too. And it's just cheap as chips for this pretty large piece of terrain. Means of course loads of work, but when it's done it's done.

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Those are awesome.

The TTCombat stuff is generally suitable for the larger figures and they have a useful range for Superhero games (and if anyone wants some buildings for games "Far From Home" there is the Streets of Venice range).

@Ultravanillasmurf: Thanks very much! Oh, that Venice range stuff (is that "designed for Carnivale"?) is a very good idea for "Far from Home" settings.


Heyhey, happy new year. Here's more heroes!

Black Panther, Black Widow, The Vision and Hawkeye. Hope you like them!

[syrinx0]

Very nice work. Nice background too!

[Battle Brush Sigur]

Cheers. Yeah, by now it's become my go-to setup (just varying amounts/sorts of debris and flames ) for these Marvel figures, unless other backgrounds are warranted.

[mellis1644]

Impressive ! looks amzing.

[Bloggard]

all brilliant as ever.

particularly love the Silver Surfer.

[Battle Brush Sigur]

@mellis1644: Thanks very much!

@Bloggard. Cheers! yeah, he was interesting to do.

Right, how is everybody doing? Is all well? Great. Here's more MCP figures: She-Hulk, Daredevil, Kingpin and Doctor Strange!





Also, some more! Luke Cage, the Punisher, Deadpool and Iron Fist.








Yup, I hope you like them!

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Very good.

I like the character that does not take himself seriously and the character that no one else takes seriously...

[Battle Brush Sigur]

@Ultravanillasmurf: Scathing words! What did Luke Cage ever do to you? I assume you're referring to Deadpool and .....Iron Fist? Because I'm sure theres loads of people taking the Punisher totally serious (and I think those people scare me).

[syrinx0]

Love the vibrant painting on these figures. 

[Ultravanillasmurf]

I assume you're referring to Deadpool and .....Iron Fist?

I have to admit that my only encounter with Iron Fist was the Netflix series.

[Daeothar]

Great work. As usual, I might add 

My two favourite Marvel characters in one go! Both Deadpool and old Frank look as they should.

(And no; I don't take either of them seriously. Heck; I don't even take myself serious  ).

[Battle Brush Sigur]

@syrinx0: Thanks very much! Yeah, what I really like about those figures is that they come with strong, colourful colour schemes.

@Ultravanillasmurf: I think you're not the only one there. D

@Daeothar: Thanks, Sir! I think I mentioned it on this thread before - I'm not hugely into the Marvel Cinematic Universe films or into superhero comics. It would be wrong to pretend I was. I enjoy painting these figures for the figure game, but it's all commission workl. However, there are two Marvel films I love: Blade (obviously) and Punisher:Warzone. Great hero, effective, classic story, baddies who are evil, but endless fun (the actors seem to have loads of fun too, given how they work those accents and the). It's got a very classic 80s/early90s action film vibe. It's not subtle, but it rocks. I can watch Punisher:Warzone over and over, which makes the Punisher and Blade probably my favourite Marvel characters. I also kinda like the concept of Captain America, because I like daft good guys.
