  1. I'm sure I read somewhere than you can add a bit of paint thinner to chunky paint, and shake thoroughly to get rid of the chunks.

    Not sure about the thin old however.

    Some waves did use clear plastic on hairpieces, I know She-Hulk and Lady Loki's are clear underneath. So the paint can be striped off, so that might be worth checking out before trying to paint over them.

    Hope my rambling was in some way helpful.

  2. I can't offer any help in regards to the bulked up mate, aside form the fact that the face/head should be the same size as a regular mate.

    In terms of more detailed sketches wouldn't it just be a case of printing the existing template a bit bigger? When I design decals and bits I just measure the chest blocks/head height. For round bits like arms wrap them in a bit of masking tape, mark where they overlap, remove and measure that. I then create a image that size in photoshop.

    I know you said you dont have the software for that, but I think gimp is free to download.

    Sorry if that hasn't helped at all.

  3. As much as I would like a whole street diorama I haven't gotten quite that ambitious yet.


    I've just started on this though. A 50's style 'house of the future' for Machine Man and Jocatsa, because the idea of robots in the futuristic 1950's suburbia amused me.

  4. I like the new Vision, was never too fond of the old one, the cape made him leans and his hairpiece thing didn't fit too well.

    Quicksilver is a welcome update too, I just stuck a black hip piece on mine.

    I will say that I think the detailing is getting a bit too fine, it doesn't show up too well in my opinion.

  5. If you fancy trying to make some yourself, I would suggest buying a few bits of foam core/board and experiment.

    Its easy to cut and stick together for structures and you can carve into it or stick printed images to it.

  6. If you're not in a hurry for it, I can try doing it for you.

    In terms of size, as far as I know all the ones in the thread are the right size when downloaded, best to print a test one on some normal paper to make sure of the size and colour.

    Paper wise you have the option of waterslide transfer paper, or vinyl sticker paper. Both are available for either laser or inkjet printers. I think Luke supplies both on his website.

  7. I'd buy a good 90% of Cute Cult's list.

    And as always Jocasta and Machine Man.

    I really hate the Spider Woman costume, reminds me on the new, now old, Wonder Woman. Which was also awful. I like my superheroes to look like superheroes, with a bit of flair to their threads. She just looks very biker chick to me with silly transforming glasses.

    I do like the spider logo bit however and its fun to see how they made the glider/wings work.
