Well not really, although that is certainly a comic book I would pay to read. Over the weekend I finished several more 'clix conversions and thought I'd share them here. I'll start with the new Alpha Flight guys.
This one turned out alright, but I'm not as happy with it as I'd hoped. I did two green washes on it, some dry brushing and a finishing gloss varnish to get it all shiny. It looks better than the original paint job, but after all the work probably not different enough to really wow me. I think the biggest thing I don't like about it is the base. I had a lot of trouble with it and I don't like the gravel next to the big rocks. I thought about putting some static grass on to cover it up, but decided it would just make it worse.

Puck
Shaman
Guardian
Shaman and Puck were very easy conversions. After removing them from the 'clix bases and gluing them on the 30mm ones I added an ink wash over their existing paint work. Puck required a little bit of touching up of the black on his uniform but that was it.
Guardian required a lot more work. I applied a very dilute grey wash over the white parts of his uniform, followed by a red wash over the rest. The skin on his face required repainting, as did the black lining around his eyes. Finally I touched up the outline of the red on his uniform and transplanted his flight base to a new 30mm size. I decided that the flight bases are worth keeping, as they both raise the figures up more dynamically, and allows indicating flight/grounded without a token in games of SuperSystem.
Since I already had a converted Sasquatch here's a gratuitous shot of the four members so far.
And as I promised, big scary monster time: Cthulhu.
