Three More SuperFigs Complete

During my April painting frenzy I finished up a few more of the SuperFigs models that have been sitting around waiting for colours. According to the profiles available for SuperSystem, first two are members of the "Crusaders of Crime"; Dark Templar and Black Claw.



After I painted Dark Templar I realized that he's almost a perfect looking figure to use for The Master, to lead my Omega Flight team. I considered repainting him without the gold and adding a little more red, but opted against it. Most people aren't familiar enough with the character to really know the difference, so he'll do just fine as is.

Black Claw was going to get a bit of glow effect on his left hand but I messed it up and just went back over it with the previous colours. I like the dark outline on his eyes, which feel like they make him look a little more eeeeevil.

Finally I finished up the massive-for-no-reason Stalker. There is nothing in the character profile that would explain his size. Like a lot of the other SuperFigs I had to trim down the integral base on him a lot. With Stalker I wanted to try a few colours that I don't usually use and think it turned out nicely.


The jumpsuit is P3 Ironhull Grey, the cape is GW Hawk Turquoise, the gloves are P3 Cygnar Blue Base and there are a few touches of P3 Murderous Magenta in there too. I used some AP Dark Tone as a wash. After that I went back in with the base colours, and finished it off by highlighting the cape with some P3 Trollblood base.

Awesome! It's great to see some SuperSystem fans out there, I've been trying to get some players down here so I can try it out. Keep it up!

They really are great miniatures with a coat of paint on them. I still have a half dozen or so to finish, plus a couple sets of henchmen. I might pick more of them up in the future too.

Thanks Ryan. We have played a fair bit of 3rd edition and more recently a few games of 4th. I feel like I prefer 3rd a bit more but haven't played enough of the new rules to really say for sure. I've converted some of the profiles For the SuperFigs I have painted and really hope to get some games in soon!

A Spot of Fiction: Part 3

Outside, the two searching figures slowly return to the main building. As they approach the light from their flashlights reflects off of the building and their shapes resolve. They're wearing simple, nondescript military style uniforms and armed with automatic weapons. One of them snarls at the other, "There's nothing out here except coyotes, dirt and wind. Besides, if I were in charge I'd have come out here and checked it out myself!" "Yeah right! If you were in charge we'd all be dead already Carlson. That door was rusted shut, I'd bet money on it. Ain't no coyote cracking it open like that," says the second guard. They pause outside the door and turn off the flashlights and he digs a pack of cigarettes from his shirt pocket. Lighting up a cigarette he offers the pack to his companion. "So if it ain't a coyote what the hell was it? Nothing around here for miles!" "I don't know Staves, but I'm not taking that...

Painting Dreadball - The Etherian Horde

You know what's really sad? I've got all four season 1 Dreadball  teams in varying states of painted-ness, but none of them are actually  finished . My corporation team was pretty much finished until I messed them up, but I'll be posting more about them soon enough. Anyway, after over two weeks of being displaced from my home I was finally given the go ahead to return Sunday. With hot water and electricity restored I had to begin cleaning unspeakable organisms from my fridge and freezer, start vacuuming, do dishes that had long languished in the sink, and of course...laundry. All the stuff people love to do right?! With most of that complete or in progress I sat down to some (in my opinion) much-deserved personal time. I flipped the TV on and broke out some figures that I thought would be relatively quick and easy to work my way through: Season 2's robot team! These things look a lot like the robotic Horde trooper minions that work for Hordak (from Masters o...
