Marvel Crisis Protocol - Valkyrie

The last MCP character I have painted is Valkyrie. I didn't fancy the paint scheme shown on the box, so went more toward the scheme from the films with a little embellishment.

I'm pleased with the skin tones and face on this model, so hopefully starting to move that in the right direction.

Thanks for looking and, if I don't post again this week, hope you all have a happy New Year! 

Space Wolves Primaris Captain (WGBL)

Last model before Christmas, this is my Primaris Captain for my Space Wolves (counts as Wolf Guard Battle Leader). Got the model from the Warhammer 40k: Conquest collection that ran for the last couple of years.

The model was originally a distinct Ultramarine, so all that iconography has been cleaned off and a few Wolf items have been added on.

Enjoy the holidays folks, here's hoping that 2021 will be much improved on this year.

Thanks for looking.

Marvel Crisis Protocol - Thor

The God of Thunder, Thor, is the next model completed in my MCP collection. A bit more variation on the colours when compared to Black Panther previously, with the highlighting on the black parts a bit more recognisable this time around.

I am pleased with Thor's face on this model as well, looks a lot better than my previous MCP character faces, although I think the lips could do with a slightly darker/redder look to them to make them stand out from the rest of the skin tone of the face.

Thanks for looking.

Space Wolves - Primaris Lieutenant (A.K.A. Haldor Icepelt)

Another character for the ranks of my Space Wolves, this time round being the Wolf Guard model from the, formerly, Tooth and Claw boxset and presently the Start Collecting Space Wolves boxset.

No mods on this chap, just a straight up paintjob. Even included eyebrows on this one, which is something I seemingly miss on most of my faces.

Thanks for looking.

Marvel Crisis Protocol - Black Panther

The king of Wakanda, Black Panther, is the latest model I have completed from the MCP universe, to go alongside Killmonger from last week.

All black models are, apparently, difficult to show up the details on, but you get the idea (hopefully!).

Thanks for looking.

Work in Progress - Base for the Repulsor

Having looked back over my recent blog updates I am going to look at two areas, initially, to improve - bases and faces. With the Repulsor that I am putting together for my Space Wolves I have the perfect opportunity to try out a few things and see if it all works together. Progress with the tank itself is nearing completion, so I started work on putting together the base.

In the photo above the rock formations to the south and west of the base are bits of cork board piled up, painted over with watered-down PVA glue prior to base coating with black primer. The formation to the east is a pile of grit and slate glued down with the PVA glue again.

The rocks were then painted Eshin Grey, before dry brushing with Mechanicus Standard Grey, Dawnstone and finally Administratum Grey. Nuln Oil was used in the recesses of the rocks

The rest of the base was covered with Astrogranite Debris, dry brushed with Administratum Grey and then washed over with Athonian Camoshade.

With the paint dry, I then added the vegetation and the Valhallan Blizzard.

Thanks for looking.

Space Wolves - Ulrik the Slayer

I had an unbuilt Ulrik model lying around and then a Primaris Apothocary model came in to my possession and an idea instantly sprung to mind - the old Wolf Priest was going to get Primarised.

Thanks for looking.

Marvel Crisis Protocol - Killmonger

This weeks visit the Marvel Crisis Protocol universe is the Wakandan Erik Killmonger. Another fun and straightforward model to get completed from the game. Here are the remaining pictures:

Can you guess who's coming next week?

Thanks for looking.

Space Wolves Primaris Lieutenant in Phobos Armour

Another converted Primaris Space Marine to join my Wolves, this time the Lieutenant in Phobos armour. Additions to the original model are the head switch to the wolf mask, changing his combat knife for an axe, shoulder pad swap and the extra wolf cloak on this guys back. 

Very dynamic model and really enjoyed painting him up.

Hopefully one day I will get to give these Primaris guys a run out and see how they play in 9th.

Thanks for looking.
