Gorgeous painting, but I don't like the minis at all: particularly Starlord and Gamora's pinheads and rubberised pretzel bodies.
Back from the dead, almost.

Yeah, the proportions are somewhat off.


And another hulkbuster is done.

Fantastic! :o Any chance of a scale shot against a normal size mini?

All your stuff is so good. Makes me what to give up on my attempts as they are so bad in comparison... I won't, but there is no way I'm reaching your skill level either.

I'm not in anyway a natural, I didn't even take art at school. I've just had lots of practice.

Scale shot of hulkbuster and a groot.





By the way there are hi-res photos on my flickr account (link to marvel album https://www.flickr.com/gp/55828886@N07/B98K5i) You can zoom in real close to see all my brushstrokes  :)

Wow, hulkbuster's big.
Gorgeous work as always.

Much nicer minis; at least as gorgeous painting.  The gradation of light and shade on Ms Marvel's legs is outstanding, and you have me wondering how much of the shadow on the Sentinel's left leg is natural and how much painted - I genuinely cannot tell the difference.

I've no idea what the Dark Avengers are, but they're great! Ms Marvel is my fave! :-*

I'd never heard of them either. But they are really nice models, some of the best in the range.
