I can't believe it's not the Justice League!

These are some of the mods I have in the link to the right but (thanx cornsilkSW!) they are a little small (new to this websitey photo stuff) and I will be working on them and replacing the pics in the Yahoo Photos link.

These Blog shots can be clicked for a greater resolution, so I will post a few of the modified shots here for clarity and more, specifically, if people are curious before I get the changes into the photo link.

BOOSTER GOLD


Booster here is made from Booster and Spymaster.

I hoped to have put him in a more kinetic pose.




BLUE BEETLE
Ted's sculpt (much like Booster's but a little moreso) is lame, early, and particularly boring. Details are fine but the pose is... uurgghh, without character. So I got his Indy clone (Lobster J) and voila! I like the mod as he looks like he is leaving the scene, whcih parallel's his stance re: the superbuddies.

















POWER GIRL

I thought the Clix was a wee bit too static and liked her "big cloak" from the Superbuddies so the mod is a minor reposition with Barda's Cloak and Ultimate' Storm's face w puttied hairdo.



GUY GARDNER
Ya gotta love the character but the Mod was interesting - Symbiote Spidey's torso and arms, Reed Richard's head and Elongated Man's hand coming from the (controversial) ring. The poetic twist is that Guy's legs were stolen and modified somewhat from Big Barda's.









MAWY MAWVEL


This was a heap of fun to make. Superwoman's legs and torso, Emma Frosts' arms and Ultimate Storm's face but I really cannot remember how I made the ponytail...
...I think it was a model horse's tail.

Mods #12-22 AVENGERS FOREVER

This is a great little series and introduced me to Genis-Vell and Songbird. I picked it up on ebay a couple of years ago but the series (came out in 99. It was the first Avengers comics I bought in over twenty years and the millenial year-special quality is astounding from the treasures I collected as a kid. Carlos Pacheco's art is inspiring. I was inspired. What could I do? Hmmm....

Ba-da-boom - 1 repainted Wasp with wings broken and re-set, 1 minor weird-arsed mod to the already fabulous Songbird (Wiz-Kids standards are soaring, she is a great example - except for the dangerously thin ankle and a pose that has her sort of heading for a crash landing, face first... the pink sound-wings help balance the mod, somewhat) and Yellowjacket, Giant-Man, Hawkeye and Cap (a leaping, shield-chucking Cap).

The PHOTOS are all fairly clear & detailed, CLICK them.

HAWKEYE


SONGBIRD


YELLOWJACKET











WASP












Then I just HAD TO do more... the supporting characters were more fun than the worn-out Avengers on their time-tripping, alternate-reality-filled romp. This picture summed up the theme - the cavalry!


Kang (V Kang) with ridiculous BFGs, Rick Jones (on an Exp Domino base) & The Supreme Intelligence (Hmmm... Oracle! I used V Hepzibah's base, range reduced to 0 - 27pts w a copy of Oracle's dial - not comp legal but fair). Libra (Roo Elongated Man) is at the back.


The Supreme Cycle (V Lockjaw, what else could it be? A Harley trike for over-powered SUV lovers with all the features of a Tardis from the House of Kang. Front and rear seating - anywhere, anywhen - there you are, all cool-like...) is made entirely from an old Ghost Rider bike, Hawkeye's skycycle and the Black Knight's mechanical steed (all chopped into bits) with 3 wheels (from a tank sprue), 4 round hatches, 1 plastic Terminator Flamer and two indiscernable bits from the bits box.


I made it for the "feel" rather than as some sort of reproduction and you can hang The S.I. off the back even though The S.I. is specifically meant to sit on the ICWO card (hence, no need for the Bat's TA). The S.I. looks bigger off the back of the bike (as he is way not to scale but the green, brainy, fishtank-guy still works for me). In Contact With The Suprememe Intelligence... I was originally going to use Exp The Brain - which I thought I needed to keep - as the S.I. but I misplaced it. Oracle on Card works way better.

Captain Marvel - Supernova/Avengers Forever...

Wow.... this is freaky. I have just completed a themed collection of mods and repaints (mainly mods) of all the main characters in the Avengers Forever series. Captain Marvel (Genis-Vell, the soon-to-be Exp Heroclix fig) is the only character I did not attempt as I knew he was in Supernova. When I completed Hawkeye (the last of the six) and took a look to see if there were Supernova teaser previews up... well, there's Legacy/Cap M (Jnr)/Photon (MkII). Gosh... So, 11 mods & repaints to follow... 6 Avengers, 4 pivotal supporting characters and 1 cool vehicle.
