Marvel Crisis Protocol: Cosmic Terrain Pack (Part One) – Barriers and Street Lights

Marvel Crisis Protocol: Cosmic Terrain Pack (Part One) - Barriers and Street Lights

Through September, I’ve kept working on some of the unfinished projects left over from the Season of Scenery Challenge. Here’s a few smaller parts of the Marvel Crisis Protocol Cosmic Terrain Pack.

I think these are supposed to be street lights – they “work” for me in that way at least in the same kind of way you’d find interesting lights in a pedestrian mall, so I painted them with an attempt at a glowy manner.

Here they are alongside Logan from MCP as well as a couple of models from other well-worn genres. I think the lights would work fine alongside all three scales.

Similarly, the Jersey Barriers work with all three. They’re a bit extra-big and britalist alongside the Post-Apoc model, but still very playable.

These may have gotten done earlier, but since I hate the official box art colour scheme, I went through three iterations (shiny metallic, standard grey, desert yellow) before settling on this greenish grey look loosely based on my recent Hydra scenery, but more weathered and worn.

Time to get some September models posted up, eh? Today’s post is the version of Wolverine in his civvies, so really in his alter-ego of Logan from the fancy Rival Panels boxed set.

I liked this model. It was a straightforward one to assemble and then also to paint. I based him on one of the generic city bases (after clipping off the curb) rather than the base that’s more specific to the Diorama base from the set, since I’m not really interested in displaying the models in that manner. I did leave the small tactical rock next to his heel, since I often add a little bit of grit and/or debris to my MCP bases.

The model also came with two head options – one with the cowboy hat and another bare-headed version. I felt if we’re doing Logan in his civvies I may as well go all the way. It also leaves me with a spare head to perhaps swap into a future Wolverine model as well for that cowl-off look that’s not uncommon to the comics.

I don’t think we have any painting challenges going for September, so I’ll just keep kicking along and painting my stuff until next month.

I know October usually gets loaded up with Orktober being at the very least an “unofficial” challenge between a few of us (I plan to be in on that one this year if others are doing it – IRO? Wudu?), Dreadtober usually running (and me failing to finish anything for the last few years!) and sometimes Zom’tober (Apocalypse Me?) because, I guess, Halloween being a thing. Anyone running that one this year? Dave?
