The All-Winners Squad

[Heldrak]

Something of a misnomer given their defeat in round 9 of the recent LPL contest, but "The All-Winners Squad" was the original name of Marvel's WWII super-team ("The Invaders" was a retcon term from the 1970s comic of the same name).

I was originally going to call the entry The All-Winners Squad, but that might have seemed hubristic in the context of the LPL (hubristic in the extreme, given the voting results of round 9).

Nevertheless, I thought that folks might like to see some individual pictures of the various squad members:

And now the toughest bellhop in this man's army...

Note that the Heroclix (android) Human Torch figure is dressed in his outfit from the 2004 comic book series "The New Invaders", not his original 1940s uniform. I trimmed the sleeve pockets off his upper arms to make him a closer visual match to his original outfit.

"Stronger than a whale, he can swim anywhere, he can breathe underwater and go flying through the air...!"

Namor, the Sub-mariner:

Namor's base was my first experiment with a water effect and I was quite pleased with how it turned out.

I think Namor is particularly impressive.

Fantastic paint!  You need to play some epic battles with those bad boys and post the pics!

Love these  .  Particularly the little details on the bases, scorched grass, reflective rock pools, etc.  And I would agree that Namor is pareticularly well painted.
