Haha, the Phone Ranger. He's great, one of the victims of a Scourge member I believe. There's a great Paperback comic out about that, with a reprint of the panels you posted here as well.  :)

Cool conversions! You have me tempted to buy some Clix and get converting villains and heroes.

Thanks, FreakyFenton. Yes, Phone Ranger was one of the always interesting victims of the Scourge...BUT! he didn't die, which is always remarkable, giving the high number of deaths in Scourge's hands.

Armless Tiger Man is so ruthless that I was tempted to gave him a Brawler profile, but I finally chose a Street level one, mainly because, ugly as he is, his feet nails can't be on the same level than Wolverine's claws. And about the Hypno-Hustler...he doesn't need presentation. A Disco-Funky-baddie, he shines as a disco-ball each time he confronts Spider-Man.

Best wishes and the best gaming for the new year, gentlemen.
 
Here in our house we continue with our games with the most obscure characters in the Marvel universe. As the kids wanted a theme game, I searched for the most Christmas villain ever (the Christmassest?) and they prepared his minions, robot snowmen- who, at certain point of the game, appeared to be taken directly from a certain comic strip about a kid and his tiger-. And, of course, he needed to be opposed by his great arch-nemesis, the Great Lake Avengers.

The game went smooth, with a lot of funny moments. The kids had a great time shooting eye-lasers from their snowmen and causing havok in the town square of Muskego,  Wisconsin, and threatening poor civilians who only want a hot chocolate and return gifts on Boxing day. Big Bertha used a bench to disarm one of the robo-snowmen. Dinah Soar and Flat Man distracted and entangled the villain. Grashopper was the MVP jumping over the snowmen and knocking down them. Mr Inmortal died from a sharp-carrot nose impact and returned from death. And, at the end, Christmas is saved by a whisker.

Oh, the criminal mastermind:

This is really old, a pre-Marvel age character.

The Blonde Phantom (Street level)
M 6''
BD 5
PD 5
Minor powers: Melee specialist, Gadgets
Backgrounds: Athletics, Espionage

You probably remember her as She-Hulk secretary during John Byrne's legendary run. Here is at her finest, when she fights criminals and nazis. I give her Gadgets to represent her gun and also her wits as a night detective.

And one of our few Spanish heroes, so stereotypical you must love him (I do, even when his Latin-lover attitude is kind of embarrassing) Stun is included to represent his mutant powers. He could generate bio-electricity and discharge it through his sword.

Slyde (Street level)
M 12''
BD 5
PD 5
Minor powers: Frictionless, Fast
Backgrounds: Science, Criminal


Steel Spider (Street level)
M 8''
BD 5
PD 5
Minor powers: Multiple limbs, Super-agility
Backgrounds: Science, Public safety

Here you have two characters from Spider-man forgotten foes. Slyde's only power is a frictionless costume, a perfect subject for the power of the same name appeared in Super Mission Force:Athwart Time!. Ollie Osnick, the Steel Spider, was a chubby teenager who named himself "Spider-man sidekick". He was not. Years later, he grow up as a muscular young man an adopts a 90's vigilante attitude. Poor guy ended with an arm in the stomach of Venom when he confronted him.

Great additions! I do only remember Slyde from seeing him featured as a brief encounter in some comics. Great to know the characters name now.

Steel Spider was also a part of either the Thunderbolts or the Dark Avengers, so definitely a fav of mine.  :)

Cracking job, Davies!

...

Slyde (and the mutant Skids) were the reason I wrote the power up!

And you did a good job, sir! Skids is one of the all-favourites of my daughter.

Mine too. Shame that Marvel editors have forgotten tons of secondary characters who could be a mine of gold in the hands of appropriate writers.

Today, we have two Sub-Mariner foes:

Llyra (Wildcard)
M 8''
BD 6
PD 6
Minor powers:Amphibious, Summoning, Obscurement, Clever.
Backgrounds:Criminal, Arcane.

Orka (Brick)
M 9''
BD 10
PD 6
Major powers.Super-strenght.
Minor powers:Amphibious, Massive.
Backgrounds.Criminal, Military.

Llyra is evil. No, I mean , she is REALLY evil. She is to Namor like Green Goblin is for Spider-man. Ok, maybe not so much, but she kills Lady Dorma, Namor's wife, the same day of their wedding.  How evil is that? She is cunning, can change her colours like a chameleon to unmask her identity, is a master planner and can summon creatures of the deep at her command.
Orka, on the other hand, is a classic brick. Plus, he breathes underwater.  Please, excuse me for the poor pain job. The two minis have more than ten years ,and the paint is falling over the poor fish.

Black fox (Minor level?)
M 6''
BD 4
PD 4
Minor powers: Blinding blast
Backgrounds: Criminal

While waiting for some official rules, I try again with one of these very-low-key characters, playing them as if they have sidekick power stats. This time is the Black Fox, aged thief and mentor of the incomparable Black Cat. I give him Blinding blast to represent some flash grenades.

Ana Kravinoff (Brawler)
M 7''
BD 7
PD 6
Major powers:Scrappper
Minor powers:Enhanced senses
Backgrounds:High society, Criminal

Yes, I give the daughter of Kraven only one minor power instead of two, because I want her stronger than a Street Level type, but weaker than her father, who is a Brawler with Scrapper, Enhanced senses and Melee Specialist to represent his superior experience hunting and fighting.

Something slightly different today. I give all the credit to eMills, illustrious member of the LAF, whose great sculpts of Supersystem characters in Zbrush inspired me to follow his path. I highly recommend his post:https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=129516.0
These are some of my first works in Zbrush, and the level of detail is still very simple, but I'm trying to improve the next ones.

The Ani-men (Street level)

Cat-man
M 8''
BD 5
PD 5
Minor powers: Super-agility, Melee specialist
Backgrounds: Criminal

Ape-man
M 6''
BD 6
PD 5
Minor powers: Super-strenght, Tough
Backgrounds: Criminal

Frog-man
M 8''
BD 5
PD 5
Minor powers: Super-agility, Leaping
Backgrounds: Criminal

I know they are missing Bird-man, but I'm still working on sculpting feathers. But he's on the list.

Thanks Davies.  Great start.  Really.  zBrush is not an easy software to get to grips with, and it looks like you are well on your way.

Really, really good early sculpts.  And they look fantastic printed and painted.

Well done!

Thanks for the kind words, eMills. I'm blushing. Yes, Zbrush learning curve is like a concrete wall, but the results, even for a beginner like me, are quite impressive. Used to sculpt in grey and green putty, here I could obtain smooth surfaces or small details impossible to achieve in another way.

And now...nobody laughs at Mr Fish!!!

Best of Luke Cage foes in a long list of excellent villains. Gideon Mace, Diamondback, Black Mariah, Comanche...all of them subjects for future posts here.

Looks like another winner Davies.  Pretty soon I'll be asking you for advice.

Keep up the good work.

I frankly doubt it, eMills, but thanks.

Now, from the pre-Marvel era, it comes...Orrgo!!!

Don't sell yourself short.  You are already doing better with each sculpt.  Plus, I'd say you are doing better than me at calling a sculpt done and printing it out. 

Orrgo looks great.  Don't think I've seen that guy at all before.
