Who will hopefully be on my doorstep when I get home, after UPS lost my Midtown order right out of the gates.  You need a Silver Surfer, Robert.

I'm picking up pieces at random when I have a small week of books, I haven't seen a Silver Surfer at my local shop.  I'd like to find a Doom too.

YEA!  UPS finally decided to locate my shipment.  New arrivals.  I love Hercules!  The rest are really good as well.  Iron Man isn't perfect, but I'll hold out hope for the classic red and gold armor.  I like Psylocke a lot, considering I don't give a rip about the character.  Same for Bullseye.  Storm is a future classicizing project, maybe.



And my next round of projects.  Two repaints with a few minor modifications, and another Psylocke figure to become...well, you'll see.

Acetone and a toothbrush.  For Nightcrawler, the paint came right off.  Wolverine took a while to clean up, and I still left some behind.  That's the relatively quick and easy route.  John Bodin uses Pine Sol, which is milder and less toxic.

Thanks!  I strpped down an extra Iron Fist I had and have been laboring to get those last bits out of the nooks and crannies.  Still trying to decide what to do with him.  I'm trying to think of someone outside of the marvel universe...though I've got no love for the Toddler I was thinking of turning him into Spawn.  Just gotta get me some extra time and some "green stuff".  I'm hoping once I've done one I justy won't be able to stop!

I stripped down my Captain Britain tonight as well, though I'm not sure why, or what I'm going to do with it.

Ryan, will you carve the Wolverine figure or just color it? I imagine you' ll use the brown/orange version, right?
As for Psylocke, I am guessing... Talisman?

Looking at that "naked" Psylocke my first thought was Aurora.
