Re: Simolekyyli's painting log. Abyss Hunters. 9.9.2013

Hello everyone!

I haven't said much on these forums before, but now I think it is a good time to start being more active. So, I desided to start a log for my new Underworld team, which I am planning to take to next NAF-championships It doesn't have a name yet, but the theme will be based around Joker and his evil friends (If u have a good name suggestion, please say it ).

I just finished my first guy (Joker) of the team. It is my first greenstuff sculpting, but I am pretty happy how it looks now. I used old GW's stone troll as a base, because it already had a jokerish grin on it's face. I only needed to add some hair, shoulder pads and a cloak What do you think?

Now I would need to find out, how I am going to paint / convert the rest of the team. I have 2nd edition BB gobbos and skaven, but I am not sure how will they fit the theme. GW's Plague Monks and Night Goblins might fit the team better with their long capes and they are also easy to convert. Any thoughts much appreciated...

The Joker is perfect!, LOVE IT!!!

[AllyRdr]

That is brilliant

Team name wise, how about the Arkham Inmates ?

[burgun824]

Very nice.

[Papa Sebco]

I like it too. Good job!

Very Jack Nicholson, your not the first person to build an Arkham themed team but your execution so far is truly above par.
As for team names and fluff, how about Arkham Incorporated? With all the mutations being caused by tainted venom and titan serum?

[Simolekyyli]

Thanks for all nice comments and name suggestions. Arkham Inmates is so far my favorite

Inkpwn: Yes, Jack Nicholson's Joker was my role model with this troll.

I have a WIP project of an orc team called Orkham Assylum, with orcs dressed and lot-of-green-stuffed as the bad guys from batman (batorc) ...so...i think that's a nice idea for a team!!!

[Lunchab1es]

Awesome! If memory serves correctly, there is/was a team in the 3DB league named The Arkham Asylum (Chaos Pact, I believe) made up of Batman villians. Personally I think that not only does the team name work in a vacuum while filling the "Location + Name/Mascot" formula, but also is an excellent theme where each model can be customized and painted to fit a persona just the way you have done with your troll, and each piece thus has its own amazing character.

Full steam ahead, I say!

If it's a Joker and his gang team then The Jokerz is always good.

Asylum Squeakers?

I'll get me coat..

[velvet mark]

Eeexellent! *taps fingers together like mr. Burns*

For names, how's about 'Arkham Asylum' if you're going for a 'Batman Villains' team, or 'Why So Serious?' or 'The Killing Joke' if it's going to be more specifically based around the Joker?
