Tired, stayed up late to put in a little work since it's been several weeks. I love taking photos of these repaints, I get a good look at all my trouble spots. I'm not sure I love the darker skin tone I gave Jennifer, I'm considering lightening it up quite a bit. The 4 is a little crooked, dang it. I have a lot of white lines to clean up, I just finished putting a light gray wash in some of the crevices.

I highlighted the black uniform with a black/dk blue. It's not showing too well in the photos, but the effect is nice. Jen's face looks like mud right now, it's definitely getting more highlights. I tried for a more wild hairstyle like she wore in FF, with bits going this way and that. For the most part, it looks like a big lump of clay :^)

It occurs to me that Quicksilver presents the potential for another
conversion…
*******
Is Namor not on the list?
That seems like a major oversight.

There is a Namor -- and it's a good one -- but he's in the "sharkskin" suit.
I bought it, but I prefer the trunks.

I may have to turn Quicksilver into a Northstar, though Pietro might be a bit bulky for that.

Sorry to steal your idea, JB. I just had to have a Heather Hudson with the High River shirt on, so I'll be going digital. I filled in her bust so she doesn't have such a form fitting top on (with two distantly separated breasts), I'm also going with the cutoff's she wore in AF 1. I'm tempted to add a little more material to the lower part of her shirt so it's not skin-tight either. Thanks again for the idea!
Since my daughter and I were building a volcano for her science class this weekend, I stayed in my Man Space as much as possible and got some painting done. I stripped the paint from Mr. Fantastic and have started on the black & white uniform scheme, and slaughtered a few Heroclix figures to build Reed a little something to hold on to (and another thanks to JB for the inspiration).

Hair's not quite right for Northstar. I wouldn't worry about the build, tho.
The figure is too bulky for Quicksilver, too!
Not that that will stop me getting one!

Great idea on the Namor ... perfect pose
Re-Animated over on Steve's forum did a fantastic repaint/resculpt of Namor from the original sharkskin figurine (green trunks & all) :)
