Awesome, perfect for Pacific Rim

Something for my jaegers to fight, Knifehead:



A Pacific Rim Heroclix repaint, really happy with him!

Awesome! Nice dark effect with enough contrast to make it pop. Will make a nasty bugger to fight for the jaegers

If you want more kaijus, I have found a limitless supply of cheap ones: Gormiti.

They are kids toys, and can be found pretty much everywhere from eBay to Toys 'r' Us.

Browse this fan site at your own peril:
http://www.gormiti.tv/
Site is in spanish, but it's not difficult. Just scroll a bit down, and click on the logos of the different series to be taken to a page where most of them will appear.

Most of them are very childish, truth be told, but there are some pure gems amongst them for kaijus.

Here is the product shot for WK new Godzilla figures. 2", but not on Clix bases.

Having just seen the film last Wednesday, I think I'll pick up the MUTOs and a few of the new Godzillas once they're cheaply available. Thanks Puuka!

Snapped a photo of the setup this morning, as there was a very nice light at the time. Hit it with a retro filter, and here's what I got:

That's a tad good.

And better looking that many kaiju movies!

I know it's a bit "up in the air", but what scale[ish] would you say your project is closest to? I am very tempted by people's Kaiju games, but need to see what else is out there to work with. Given my superhero table (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=32726.165) I'd need vehicles, armies to squash, jets, roads, and everything!

Hahah, thanks

This project is firmly in the 2mm/3mm range. I'm basically using stuff from 1/1200 to 1/600, so there are some scale inconsistencies. The minis are around 45-60mm tall.

And lo, there was progress! Here are some ruins I built for the game:

Awesome work, but where is the "everything happens at night in the rain" filter?    One of my biggest beefs with the film.  I think the concept is sound but I was a bit disappointed by the film.  I'd probably vastly prefer to play your beautiful looking game vs. watching the film again.  Dibs on Cherno Alpha.

Wonderful!

That's looking good mate.
