Trying to catch up on my backlog, and I swear I would get through it if I would just stop buying more miniatures…
But we all know that isn’t happening, so I’m just going to put my nose to the grindstone and hope to at least make a dent!
I started the Fantastic Four figures from CMON’s Marvel Zombies version of Zombicide back in the spring of 2024, and it’s been slow progress, as shaky health and other, far more distracting miniatures jockey for favor with my attention span.
The Human Torch is next off the list, I’m not as happy with this outcome as I would like to be, fire is just tricky when it’s the whole damned figure. Still, it works, and I’m sure I’ll stop being as critical of it when I get more distance from the monotony of painting it.
He does look pretty sweet posed with the Thing, though! I’m not sure if it’s still canon with the Fantastic Four, but it was revealed in the early 2000’s that Ben’s nemesis, the Yancy Street Gang, was Johnny Storm just pulling pranks the whole time. I hope in my heart of hearts that is still the case!
