Ace work!

Lovely Work!!

[obsidian3d]

Thanks everyone.

I have plenty more figures primed and ready to paint. Batwoman is partially complete, as she was part of the police crew I was playing. After that I'm not sure what I'll tackle next:

- Batman leaders & free agents (AO & AC Batman, AC Robin, Birds of Prey, Alfred)
- Bane crew (w/ Copperhead)
- Joker crew (w/ Red Hood variant)
- League of Shadows
- Deathstroke & Catwoman

Any votes for what you want to see next?

I return once again to break the silence with more pictures: Batwoman and Catwoman.

I'm not super happy with the faces on these two, and all that black near-drove me insane (I almost said 'batty' but that would be a little too on the nose). It's likely I'll go back in on these to clean up Catwoman's skin to remove the 5 o'clock shadow, and the white over-step on Batwoman's mask just to feel like they're both totally finished.





Batgirl is next, who I've unwisely decided will also be garbed almost entirely in black. I must dislike myself of something...

Nice work fella!

Particularly like your batwoman, she's going to look excellent on the table

Thank you.

Love the blue on the cops, how did you do it?

[obsidian3d]

I think there's a paint recipe on this post here. http://obsidian3d.blogspot.ca/2015/08/gotham-city-swat-figures-for-batman.html

Painted up my Poison Ivy starter box.

Excellent again mate

[obsidian3d]

I'm really happy with this batch; even though I'm by no means a pro painter, I think I've been reaching a good standard with the BMG figures that I've done so far. Actually I think they look better on the table than the photos really show. I'm not a photographer and don't make any claims to be.

I'm torn on whether to do Arkham Origins Batman, and use him to do demos against Catwoman and Poison Ivy for 150 rep, or paint AC Batman and Robin, and use them against the Ivy starter and Catwoman at 200 rep. Whichever way I decide, I have to paint the heroes to go up against the ladies.

Any suggestions?

Love the Ivy - very clean paintjob and great work on the face (particularly the make-up), well done!

[obsidian3d]

Thanks. Green lips seemed to make sense on this one, despite her having regular shaded sin.

Great work on all the minis! Having no experience about superhero gaming, how is that side of things?

[leonmallett]

Very nice work on all your Ivy crew.
