Another #MCPFriday, another character I only painted because I'd already painted the other one that came in the box.
Had a hard time getting motivated on Klaw. I think it was all those little "sound cubes."

For #MCPFriday, another character I don't have in a roster: Magik!
I've been trying to finish MCP minis that came with another mini that I'd already finished...and I painted Colossus over a year ago.

I've had Mantic Games' Terrain Crates for a while now, but haven't made much effort toward painting them. Time to start correcting that.

This week's #MCPFriday is the immortal Iron Fist!
I don't actually have a use for him in any of my current rosters, but I'm trying to move things out of my closet and into my display case...and he was in my backlog.

Terrain for Tuesday: Continuing my terrain kick with this dwarven statue from Moonshine Miniatures.
Went with a variation of my go-to "concrete" recipe, starting with a brown wash and ending with green "stains."

The “Bound Prisoners” set from…Bestiarum Games, I think? Picked them up to use as set dressing, or maybe objective markers.

Still need to paint the base, but this has been a very quick project (thanks to that all-black uniform).

Another Black Widow, because batch painting.
This is the one from EMCS. I removed the Ultron drones and trimmed away their mounting points. (I'm not a fan of that sort of presentation.)

The marble effect was my first stab at a technique I recently rediscovered.

Monday Marvel: Young Trickshot, C27 Miniatures.
I finished her over the weekend. The end of her original arrow broke a while back, so I built a new one out of wire and a bit of thin sprue.

A little late for #MCPFriday, but apparently there was some kind of winter solstice festival or something...?
Anyway, I finally finished the two Black Widows I had on my desk. Here's the Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. version.

Terrain for Tuesday: the remainder of a Dwarven Forge/Hirst Arts project that's been sitting on my painting desk for 20 years.
It’s meant to evoke the idea of a wall painted to look like a window…but the plaster is cracking.

Oh, look…I’m still alive.
We’ve moved, and I finally got my display cases sorted out again (though there are several more minis still in storage boxes).
I hope to find some time soon to make use of my painting desk again, too.

It's #MCPFriday, so you get Black Widow!
This is actually my repaint of her. I hated how her hair came out originally (very "circus clown"), so I used Reaper's "red hair triad" to touch her up.
