Another batch of Guardians and my 3rd Rocket and Groot!
It makes life a little bit sweeter when they’re to be painted the same as I’ve done before, as that means I have guides…
I really enjoyed every one, again. MCP models are so crisp, characterful and dynamic, they offer a really enjoyable paint no matter if you’ve painted them before.
Take a look at more pictures of this commission below, and if you would like me to paint some of your models get in touch.
Hello everyone! I wanted to start by saying thank you to everyone who’s using my guides, and a special thanks to those who’ve left me some comments and helped support me. You’re all legends, thank you!
I am still on a mission to get a guide out for as many models as possible, but trying to keep up with the release schedule can be a little daunting, I’m almost up to 100 models in the collection and still more I need to pick up!
It’s been a lot of fun tackling so many characters and even better to be able to revisit a few. I’ve been painting them now since the core set in 2019 and it’s been amazing to see the progress in the sculpt quality. A good example is Spider-Man; the core set model while cool is also fairly basic, compared to the Amazing Spider-Man, who goes full blown cinematic action pose. It’s clear that AMG are pushing themselves and I love it.
I’m slowly working away on more guides and feel like I’m catching up with the backlog. I’ve added Omega Red today and you can find his guide here…
I have a couple of guides close to completion, with the below coming in the next couple of weeks…
Hulkbuster includes a lot more images than I normally do, because I felt he deserved more detail. I am also going to start including more images for different angles, at least the backs to start.
I also have the following packs and likely will be looking at doing them in the following order..
Gambit & Rogue
Colossus & Magik
Doc Ock & Spider-Man (Rivals Panel)
I’m looking to get the guides out a bit more regularly, with at least 1 every fortnight and 1 a week if I can. Look out on Fridays for future guides.
If there’s anything you’d like to see let me know.
Welcome to my latest painting guide! Omega Red hits the painting table. A fairly chunky model with some cool but very flexible tentacles.
I need your support. Because my guides takes time and supplies to do, any support you can offer would mean the world to me. A supportive message in the comments is enough, but if you have the means why not send me a gift on Ko-Fi or PayPal. Thank you!
