Some Random Supers
« on: 21 April 2016, 05:59:06 PM »
Well I say random but it's mostly Brotherhood of Mutants as I had started paint stripping and rebasing them a while back but also Hulk, because Hulk. They're all stripped and repainted clix models except maybe Blob who is a clix but I think I just painted over the original paint job.

Hulk


Toad


Avalanche


and Blob


I've got a few more I've almost finished then it's back to fantasy warbands.

Very nice.  Hulk is great.  Because like you say, Hulk.

Yeah it took me ages to find a decent clix Hulk in terms of both sculpt and size. There's one that looks great in the angle they show it but then when I got it the left arm is like 1/3 the size of the right, I don't even know how that sculpt passed QA.

...and two more added.

Destiny


Sabretooth


Just got Pyro and Quicksilver left to do in this batch now.

Excellent work on the paint jobs! Some of these older Clix are a real paint to deal with.

I miss the old IH and XP sculpts.
Looking for a set of rules that adaptable for different genres.

Not sure what the policy is on thread necromancy but got back to Supers now that Super Mission Force is out and didn't see a point in starting a new thread.

Finished Scarlet Witch a while back but never took any pics. Unfortunately I had to do some repairs after she kinda got damaged in the acetone bath and they're not exactly perfect. I'm really not sure why some rare clix start peeling apart after acetone... think it might have something to with glue or something...



Also completed my brotherhood with Mystique who has been missing for too long. I have a clix version which I started painting but it's an utterly dire sculpt so gave up on it and just used a Hasslefree Dionne instead.

Well, when you add such great additions, who could argue with a little Necromancy??

I really like Mystique, great idea using that mini.

Added the Fantastic Four, once again stripped and repainted Heroclix, was never a huge follower but they're an obvious go to for a super team. Human Torch isn't done... wasn't sure how much work to do on him since the clix comes in transparent plastic but I think I'm gonna paint all the flames too which hopefully won't go badly.

Oh those are really nice!!  Really good repaints!

I've not seen that one of Mr. Fantastic before.  I'm really looking for a miniature to represent him (but not in his rubbery state).  Haven't come across anything that appeals to me yet.

I was a huge fan of the FF back when I was a youngster, in the 80's/

Just recently, I've started reading through ALL of their original comics starting with the 1961 release of Issue One.  I'm on Issue 85 or so now.    It's actually a pretty cool way to view what was going on in the world at that time via pop culture.  And how much attitude towards women and the world have changed.

Anyhow, it's really rekindled my interest in the group.

Wow, those are great. The contrast on their clothing is subtle and looks awesome.

I like what you did with Sue Storm's base. The sidewalk effect is cool and adding the drain sells it. I guess I'm saying I like Sue Storm's storm drain  ;)
