Good news, Dr. Strange is coming out in a pack with Wang. https://www.atomicmassgames.com/cp23 I feel like they're going to cover some of the main bases first, Marvel characters that are well known or in the movies, and then build out from there. I don't know how much oversight Marvel/Disney have but imagine, people we're pushing movies for first is one of the rules of the license. I doubt it's like Knight Models where they seem to be able to do whatever because DC, lol.

AMG came through on the one thing I had on my MCP wishlist: alternate heads! I'm probably going to try and convert Cyclops to look more like his House of X version. Hopefully Wolverine's shoulder pads are separate pieces that can be left off.

Right, so what we've got so far from GenCon (other than the X-Men): Daredevil Kingpin Bullseye Taskmaster Punisher Luke Cage She-Hulk Looks like it's gonna be a good time if you like street-level stuff. Lucky for me I do!

Holy cow. Dr Strange is amazing. He is going to be power hungry, but daaaaaaammmmnnn. Also, the Defender affiliation is really nice too.![]() ![]()

The standard of miniatures for this game is just off-the-wall insane. Barely a dud among them, and some of the upcoming ones (Angela!) look incredible.

https://xavier-protocols.com/2020/08/03/crimson-bands-of-cyttorak/ did the math on how often Crimson Bands will land an activated token: 49% of the time, and it can get as high as 69%. Feels like a bargain for 5 threat.

Had a game at the shop last night Running Thanos(Power Gem), Proxima, Corvis (Reality Gem) & Okoye Corvis sure is something when he is powered up and Thanos teleports him around like a nuke.

She-Hulk looks like a nice mix between the current, well, Hulk-ier version and the traditional Glamazon iteration.

I've had this since release, and never thought to look for a thread here. Haven't been able to play in months for obvious reasons, but been plugging away at painting. Looking forward to trying out the Spidey affiliation, and super looking forward to Dr. Strange and Defenders. Also, these are great: KingMob posted:All caught up again.

Neither my best work nor finished (and I cannot take pictures of minis worth a drat) but for the first thing I've painted in over two years, I'm pretty happy with the start and also with Contrast paints.![]() ![]()

I finally bought in with Dr. Strange coming out and I'm loving the quality. I was rewatching some MCU while planning out my builds and I suddenly wondered if anyone has sought to create alternate head sculpts? Probably something 3d printed? Would be cool to be able to do a head swap for a few characters.

Man these minis make the old Hero Clix look like total garbage, that Thanos is super choice.

KingMob posted:October's releases done. I think I've figured out how to paint white. How'd you do your white? Right now I'm working on Kingpin too and I'm layering p3 Morrow White then plan to go over it with Contrast Apocathary White and see how it turns out.

Pyrolocutus posted:How'd you do your white? Right now I'm working on Kingpin too and I'm layering p3 Morrow White then plan to go over it with Contrast Apocathary White and see how it turns out. I wanted a neutral tone on KP and TK, so I did a base of Army Painter Stone Golem, and over many, many layers, shaded up through to AP Matte White. Deeper recesses were shaded with a wash of AP Uniform Grey. Bullseye I went cooler, so I did a white base, and then a wash of AP Fog Grey and worked it back up. The picture washes out the shading, so the actual effect is more pronounced in person.

My Storm is way off center on her base. I’d pull it off to redo but there’s all these rocks and blasts of energy and stuff.

These are awesome. Is your beast a blue ink over grey/white, then white drybrushed overtop?

No, I actually did a Zenithal prime then used Badger Minitaire Nautilus Blue. Washed that with Drakenhof, mixed the Nautilus Blue with some white to do highlights then did a soft drybrush of white on the hair parts.

Is Ghost Rider any good in-game? He's one of favorite characters and I want to build around him

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:Is Ghost Rider any good in-game? He's one of favorite characters and I want to build around him Oh yeah. If he can hang around the amjor scrum in the game, he punishes opponents not paying attention to him, and Penance Stare is a baller attack. Make sure to take a 2 pointer character with you like Okoye or Toad, so they can hang out at an out-of-the-way objective and be used for the Deal With the Devil Tactics Card.

is this a good game to play? any good guides on how to paint
|

It's excellent. Can't help you with the painting, but the game itself holds up as a competitive game and is great fun on the casual end of things.

It's a tight, well-written ruleset that plays quickly and can be as competitive or casual as you want. Painting resources are best found on some combination of Facebook groups, Discord, and Twitter / Instagram. Usually there's significant overlap between the different groups so it shouldn't be too hard to find resources. Most people are super helpful and supportive especially if you're new to painting. The mini painting thread here is also helpful, but skews almost exclusively to Games Workshop stuff.

realize this thread is usually dead but holy poo poo I'm so excited for this Spider-Man expansion. The Lizard sculpt in particular is loving amazing. The new Spidey is cool too----good to know some characters will get a second mini with even more detail. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ystJkny0_JE

They've teased on facebook that Carnage will be coming with alternate axe-hands, for those of us with good taste
