MCHiPs


Earlier this year, I posted about finishing up the Banshee from Warlord/Mongoose. 


Looks familiar... yet shinier.


A friend was looking it over and he suggested that I add gloss varnish to the outside, to make it look more like a car's finish, rather than keeping the matt coat that I already had on it.




I can almost see myself  reflected on the hood.



I also figured it was time to getting around to painting the judge that came with the car.




You, over there!



The model is well cast and sculpted, but there are details on it that aren't right for a MC street judge.
The right shoulder pad is not an eagle and the helmet is wrong.







The model will still make a nice addition to my collection.




Together again.

Feeling Blue

Continuing with painting the cultists from Cthulhu Wars, this time around it is the blue faction, Crawling Chaos.





Crawling Chaos has fast units, which means that the cultists here can travel around quickly.




With these getting done, I now have 18 of the 24 base game cultists finished.  Next up is Yellow Sign...

Big Bad Wolves

This is a unit of Republican Roman skirmishers/velites.

I wanted to give the appearance of an irregular formation, without having to resort to lots of little bases.

This Is Not The Demon You Are Looking For

Continuing on with Hellboy/BPRD and non-Cthulhu Wars cultists...


Following on from my previous post featuring Hellboy, here we have Baby Boy.



Cat hair base not included on original model.



This cute little guy is also a Clix figure that has been rebased and repainted.



Cloudy day, cluttered desk -- the poor lighting hides my painting sins


Continuing on with painting more cultists, this guy is from North Star.







When I first started painting these guys, I though they would be a breeze to go through.
Then I started painting Cthulhu Wars and... well... robed demon worshipers are only so exciting to paint for a short time.






A post-sacrifice brawl is a great way to wind down.
