    This is really well put, and it is often very personal to each individual as to how they deal with the issue of a creator turning out to be awful. Also went through it with Gaiman, especially as his work really shaped my interests in literature when I was younger. Ultimately though, the art has...

    Star Wars Black Series

    I haven't been on board with Blackseries for a while after being unusually dissapointed by Huyang. I really like his character design, and most of the droids look great in the Blackseries, but the figure seemed so bland. It kind of ended my interest in the line after it had been waning for a...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    These are great options, and you could also grab one of the wizards, Samir Scrollwarder or Arrizak. Both have a standard 2.0 armored body under the robes (which can be removed) and they're both $37 on BBTS. I think the body under Samir Scrollwarer is brown/bronze, and Arrizak has a black body...

    Marvel Legends Two-Packs

    Yeah the Puff Adder wave version also matched the cover art for that armour, which seemed to show a more matt finish compared to the interior art. This is the type of thing that I'd like to mess around with, but it's too pricey to take the risk 😄 I might actually try it on the Model 20...

    Marvel Legends Two-Packs

    I wondered if anyone has seen any pictures posted of the new extremis armor with a matt coat applied? It always came across as a bit less shiny in the comics than the other armors, but was just curious how it would look with this shade of red/gold (I've seen it done on the previous version and...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Yeah, I prefer the cloth loincloths to the old plastic ones as they're more fun to pose and look a lot more natural. I've just had a few that seemed a bit long (mostly on Thraice/llythia). I think the Xylernian guard might have been my first figure, and totally agree that it's really solid...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I do love the way these figures look with the extra bits and pieces, but it's true that the more complex they are, the more fiddly they become. My kitbash knight and green armory knight are two of my favourite figures (permenantly on my desk, which is rare), but I don't mess with them too much...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    The way Otho is kitted out is so close to the Elite Knight set from Dark Souls that I might have to finally attempt that custom. His additonal helmet is weirdly close to the helm as well (the visor is just a little off), to the point that it almost doesn't seem like an accident.

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Although I thought I wouldn't have much interest here, I'm also likely in for the greybearded dude. I've been looking for unhelmeted heads for my knights, and the belt and trouser/boot combo are in the exact colour that I need for a custom that I've been wanting to try for ages (I've just been...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I had hoped that they'd return to the knights theme with the new armory experience, but maybe with an update for the female knights on the 2.0 body in the same way that the Valiant Knight updated the 1.0 version. Gladiators makes sense for the theme as it kind of lends itself to the idea of...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're compatible. I had the older leather hands pack and they worked with 1.0 bodies, all the pegs look pretty similar. Although, one thing that always worries me with this line is handswapping, which is weird, because swapping entire limbs/torsos isn't an issue. The...

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    These do look like they just tripped and fell out of the comic, which is awesome, and I like the story specific accessories. A little expensive though, which means I probably can't justify the additional Hellboy but will hopefully get Gruagach. Maybe one Hellboy, one BPRD/non-bad guy, and one...

    General Marvel Legends

    It looks like it's from the Iron Man: Director of Shield - Haunted storyline, which is absolutely worth a read if you haven't already. I only read through it earlier this year (I somehow missed out on the entire Director of Shield run until recently), and I think it might be my favourite Iron...

    Customizing 101

    I would also recommend visiting a local gaming store for paints, as the prices have been better there too in my experience. They also have a wider range of brands to choose from, in case you can't quite find what you're looking for in your preferred brand. I've only ever used citadel and vallejo...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    The 1.0 and 2.0 is more like a separate set of compatible parts. So, the newer knights are on the 1.0 bodies, but they've updated the articlation by introducing new parts into the line. The 1.0 type figures tend to have a larger build, whereas the 2.0 are a bit slender. So a lot of the...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I think the Knight Kit might be sized for the 2.0 mythic legions bodies, which are slightly shorter slimmer builds than the 1.0 knights (like Elijah, Valiant Knight, Silver Knight, etc.). There are loads of options in that range as well though (often the robed characters also have a 1.0...

    He is a great figure, the face really sells that he has absolutely had enough of all the undead nonsense. I kind of want to swap in some different parts as he feels a bit too fancy with the gold trim and I prefer the knights to look a bit raggedy. I've struggled to find any places that do...

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    I would echo everything said above, and trying out one of the recommended short stories is probably the best way to go. My favourite is the Troll Witch. Very short, but provides some insight into the type of world Hellboy inhabits, and how a lot of these mysteries can't be solved with a straight...

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    I don't think I've pre-ordered anything since the All Stars 6 wave, but this one really got me with the little fox knight. Absolutely ordering one of the gnomes as well so that I can mix and match the armour pieces. Mainly because I feel like he should have boots for the snow. It's tempting to...
