\"Some<\/a>
Some Reaper Bones civilians<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As Reaper posted their second Bones Kickstarter project this week, I was reminded that I hadn’t painted any of the first batch. \u00a0I really only wanted about half of what was in the Kickstarter deal, but half was enough to make the deal worthwhile. \u00a0I traded some figures with others in the HAWKs and sold another batch at Historicon, retaining the ones I really wanted. \u00a0I took advantage of being furloughed to take care of some needed “honey do’s” around the house and also work on some of the Reaper figures.<\/p>\n

\"Thor\"<\/a>

Some weeks back I posted that I was working on a Victorian version of the Marvel Avengers. \u00a0The only Avenger I was missing was Thor. \u00a0Someone online suggested a blacksmith. \u00a0I converted one of the Reaper blacksmith figures to be Thor. \u00a0He’s the one on the left in the picture below.<\/p>\n

\"Blacksmiths\"<\/a>

I considered making the apron red, like Thor’s cape, but that looked goofy, so I made his pants red instead.<\/p>\n

\"Victorian<\/a><\/p>\n

Here is a view of the complete Avengers group in action against a giant crab. \u00a0The front row, from left to right: \u00a0Black Widow, Thor, Captain America, and Hawkeye. \u00a0The back row, from left to right: \u00a0the Hulk and Iron Man.<\/p>\n

\"Heroine<\/a><\/p>\n

I’m not sure how this figure became part of the handful I pulled from the box, but since she was on the table, she got painted.<\/p>\n

\"Grave<\/a>
Grave Diggers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I tried to be a bit artistic with these. \u00a0I wanted them to look as if they were being lit by the lanterns. \u00a0The effect was not nearly as good as I had hoped.<\/p>\n

\"Dungeon<\/a>

I really like the two figures on the right. \u00a0They depict the typical dungeon delver, heavily laden with weapons and treasure.<\/p>\n

Why so many duplicates? \u00a0You can never have too many townspeople, so one of my Kickstarter add-ons was a second set of civilians.<\/p>\n
