First of my Incursion APEs

Here's my first Ape for Grindhouse Games Incursion.



I don't think the mondo picture is doing me any favors.....

What do you think?

Black-and-white gradients are usually not the best choice to showcase figures, especially dark ones like that one. IŽd suggest using a gradient running from a light azure blue to pure white.

Otherwise, the figure looks great. The Allied star icon is particularly well-done.

Cheers! I thought it looked a bit dark, I'll use a different gradient on my next ones.  I just couldn't picture this guy in a bright environment!

I do have to confess the Star is a decal.


Thanks for the other comments gentlemen!  I'm working on the next 5 now...

I love those Incursion APE minis, and this one looks great - really nicely done! Lovely weathering and detailing. As soon as I can, I'll be picking these up, even if I don't get around to playing the game!
