That Beast is awesome, I've been meaning to post forever to say. I really learned about the X-Men from the 90's cartoon (I was in college), so that incarnation was always my "basic" Beast.

Goliath is coming out great so far as well. Which Goliath is that? Pym? Barton? Foster?

The Henry Pym version:

But it doesn't really matter because it will be an OGrymn...

I wish the larger miniatures weren't so unwieldy because he is taking an age to finish... you can't see all the smoothing that has been done to his back but I thought that I'd show him off anyway:

Very cool, static looking legs but the mask and muscles are awesome.

Inso · « **Reply #154 on:** December 02, 2012, 06:03:12 PM »

Not Grymn this time... but certainly superheroes:

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #155 on:** December 02, 2012, 09:47:37 PM »

Oooh, well done indeed!

beefcake · « **Reply #156 on:** December 03, 2012, 03:49:24 AM »

Loving those two... I have a sudden urge to create a superhero rule set.

Inso · « **Reply #157 on:** December 09, 2012, 08:42:40 PM »

And another superhero; Stockade:

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #158 on:** December 09, 2012, 10:22:54 PM »

Are these original characters? I really like them!

Inso · « **Reply #159 on:** December 09, 2012, 10:28:20 PM »

They are miniatures from the Crossover range but you get a selection of heads to make your own characters.

I just liked the style of the head/body combinations and chose names that suited them.

The next one is called 'The Judge'.

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #160 on:** December 09, 2012, 10:36:10 PM »

I've got some Crossover figs myself. I was just wondering if you were referencing any obscure characters. I like Matterhorn especially, it really suits him! Beamer is clearly a not/Cyclops; I'm less sure what Stockade's powers would be from his name.

Inso · « **Reply #161 on:** December 09, 2012, 10:43:10 PM »

He has the ability to alter his mass (like Vision) so he can be as solid as a mountain (or a stockade) if he wants to be. Add super-strength and he is ready for the fight

Matterhorn is super-strong, has tough skin and has a charge attack where he uses his head to batter you into submission. He is also adept at climbing so may have the wall-crawler ability.

Beamer is a Cyclops clone.

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #162 on:** December 09, 2012, 10:56:24 PM »

Thing is, I knew what Matterhorn's and Beamer's powers were from their names and appearances. Which means you made very good comic heroes! I was a bit less clear on Stockade. But his powers do suit him.

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #163 on:** December 22, 2012, 02:17:26 AM »

It has come to my attention that many of the Mantic Dreadball figures would make good supers. Posed as running and/or punching, and without weapons. MVP's would be easiest to get as singles, but I imagine that when the full game is out, and people can get teams, singles from the teams should appear on Ebay.

Ajsalium · « **Reply #164 on:** December 22, 2012, 03:06:04 AM »

Well, the "Enforcer" is a perfect Iron Man. And the female humans could be used for Rescue.

Inso · « **Reply #165 on:** December 22, 2012, 08:06:39 AM »

As soon as I saw the Enforcer miniatures, I immediately thought of Iron Man and with the Forgefathers I thought of Juggernaut... so yes, there is plenty of scope for super heroes or even teams of super forces (like SHIELD).

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #166 on:** January 13, 2013, 12:03:28 PM »

My fine detail painting sux, so I was looking for handy decals for various typical superhero symbols. You can find red, blue, or white stars on Ebay looking for decals for old military kits.

But for more variety... I found this: Topsignseller Nail Art Decals. They're peel and stick, so they might be a bit thick. But there are lots of symbols, scorpions, flags... quite a range. Or these water transfers: Sparkly Nails: gotta love that spiderweb!

Just thought I'd post this in case anyone finds it useful.

Inso · « **Reply #167 on:** January 13, 2013, 12:42:31 PM »

Cheers

. There is some good stuff on there.

Inso · « **Reply #168 on:** January 14, 2013, 10:36:49 PM »

I've decided that this guy will be added to the human team...Tango (I need to put his name on the base though):

I also got a Mantic Enforcer leader to convert into a Dwarf in Exo-armour but he is so huge that I think I have my Ironman in Hulk-buster armour-alike:

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #169 on:** January 14, 2013, 10:50:23 PM »

"Tango"! Another well-named super. Is he that bright in real life?

Oh, and that Enforcer is a big boy, isn't he? I look forward to your conversion.

Inso · « **Reply #170 on:** January 15, 2013, 07:08:46 AM »

Tango is THAT bright

I'm not sure whether I am going to convert the Enforcer at all (except to remove the weapons).

beefcake · « **Reply #171 on:** January 15, 2013, 07:37:14 AM »

Nice work. Is Tango your own sculpt as well?

Mr Teufel · « **Reply #172 on:** January 15, 2013, 10:48:24 AM »

Naaah. Inso can sculpt better than that!

ink the troll · « **Reply #173 on:** January 15, 2013, 10:50:13 AM »

That enforcer is huge, wouldn't have thought they're that big.

And Tango is a great idea- the white shorts make him look even brighter.

Inso · « **Reply #174 on:** January 15, 2013, 11:38:37 AM »

Tango is from Black Hat miniatures and has been painted for ages but now he has somewhere to go. His paint is based on the Tango man from the Tango comercials... an orange man in a white nappy who runs up to people and slaps them (replaced by kissing after a few school playground burst eardrums).

I think his powers will be like the Blob's but with special slap and clap attacks to add a bit of flavour (the slap causing huge amounts of knock back and the clap being a ranged 'wind' attack... again causing knockback but also a sonic attack).

@ink - I was gutted that the enforcer was that big

. I really wanted to convert it into a dwarf but it would take too much work to do at it's current size.
