Nice one.

Every time you post a new miniature, I go to the Wikipedia page just to inform myself (there were only Tintins and Frank Frazetta-filled graphic novels in my home growing up). I just read that she is Greek. (so Élodie Yung is a better choice than Jennifer Garner).

Cheers von!
I have to do that several times with newer characters I'm unaware of, and sometimes for
Costume details that aren't done well on the figure.

Today from 'fantastic forces', Awesome Android,

Some better sites for Marvel and DC information are

And since I think he's done some Hellboy as well

Looking for a set of rules that adaptable for different genres.

Those links are pretty cool Puuka!

Today it's wasp from 'avengers' she's tiny. It was only after looking at the photo blown up
that I can see her face needs a bit of evening-up

@obsidian3d:- I thought so too! They have done a few skrull versions of characters, and I've converted some up too for gaming.

Today it's Magneto, he's from the same supermarket toy series that doctor octopus and sandman were from which I've posted previously.

Great looking work on the cape. I really like your style of painting as its incredibly effective in bringing out details such as cloak folds and muscle groups. Great stuff  :)

From the avengers set this is Wasp in her original costume. The pose is difficult to
Photograph easily to show how she looks, the sea-through wings don't show up well either.

I stopped playing Heroclix right around that time and remember that Ms. Marvel...your paint work is good, but this set really didn't do anything for me. Partly because I have no interest in Skrulls.

I like shape changers too, but more like Beast Boy and Mystique than the Skrulls. Strong Guy brings back memories though! I read X-Factor pretty much from issue 1 all the way through to the end! I forgot they made that figure. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. :)
