Star Wars: Shatterpoint- Devaronian Bounty Hunter

My willpower is legendary. As in “I have no willpower and there are legends about it”. I took one look at the Fistful of Credits squad pack from Atomic Mass Games, and suddenly my wallet was lighter and there were four more miniatures in my house. Oops.

You would think Cad Bane would be the first miniature I would paint in this set, but I actually went crazy for the Devaronian Bounty Hunter! Sure, he’s just space trailer park trash, but he’s my kind of space trailer park trash…

The model is really dynamic, AMG is really coming into their own with the sculpts the are putting on models now. He’s cocky, smirking, and you just know he named those pistols!

More from Star Wars: Shatterpoint next week!

MCP: Captain America (Earth’s Mightiest Box Set Edition)

This was the first mini I popped out of the Earth’s Mightiest Box Set from Marvel Crisis Protocol, and I managed to get him painted up in less than 24 hours, so I’ll be crossing off another box on my hobby bingo card today…

I really, unabashedly love what Captain America stands for, even if that sometimes doesn’t pair up with what the country is actually doing at the moment. I’m trying to look past the nationalism and at the actual symbolism of what the character can stand for: Our better angels, doing what is right for everyone. Protecting everyone, not just the people that like you. Not being distracted or divided. That’s kinda cool, even if I don’t see that much of anywhere anymore.

The sculpt on the figure is really good, probably the second best Cap model in the line. Definitely the best Steve Rogers Cap. I’ll be posting the best Cap sculpt when a certain movie comes out next month!

Let’s take a look at that bingo card!
