SUPERHEROES! 50080, Zenith, and 50107, Afterburn (pic-heavy)

[Rigel]

Well, "Endgame" is almost upon us, and surely there could be no better time to post these! 50107, Afterburn, is a magnificent pulp-era flying armored gadgeteer genius superhero, part Rocketeer and part Iron Man. The color choice was a simple one. Screaming Bell, Greedy Gold, DecoArt Rich Espresso, AP Rough Iron, and some Reaper-sample blue.

The base comes with some billowing vapors, which I augmented with some cotton for additional effect. 


And then there's 50080, Zenith. I couldn't resist painting him as my favorite hero, and the dynamism and determination (as well as the almost comically well-defined musculature) made him a natural fit. This was also a good opportunity to get more practice with washes and highlights, to make the bulging muscles pop EVEN MORE. 
A small clear plastic round sticker provided a shield. Mostly painted in Reaper sample blue, with shades of AP Dark Sky, Chaotic Red, and True Red. The stars, "A," and wing emblems are in silver. Forgive the many pictures; this sculpt has a lot of detail that needs showing off!

Good conversion on Capt. America!

Thanks all! I'm glad they came out okay. They'll get some better shots with Crosswire soon. 
The Cap conversion was fun and easy. I really should put some shield straps on there, but that is less easy and can wait.
