I hope the long weekend finds you all well. It has been a summer…certainly not as planned, but things could always be worse. I haven’t had any chances to get any gaming in, and anything I had planned unfortunately had to be pushed to the side. Regardless, I look forward to the next game and am hoping to try 0200 soon.
Anywho, as the title says, this post is all about that maddest of the Mad Titans…Thanos!
For help on this, I took a look at Sorastro’s YouTube channel and watched his Thanos video a few times to help with the process and some of the colour choices.
The video was super helpful…as always…and the figure was a lot of fun to paint up, although not without its frustrations, lol. I chose to use two bases, one with and the other without Thanos…this gave me something to put in the slot of the Throne terrain piece whenever I did not have Thanos on that piece. It did take me a couple of iterations to get the gold armour just right…and the throne effects themselves took a few tries to get the way that I wanted.
I did get pretty frustrated at the mid point…and by the time I got to 95% completion, I pushed harder to get the last 5% done. Full disclosure, lol, it took me almost a month off and on to get the piece completed.
With that preamble, hope you enjoy the pics…and for some additional ambiance, I used my Space scene Cigar Box Battle Matt.
