I haven't posted about it much, beyond a couple of play reports, but the GI Joe in 28mm project I started back in January 2022 is still ongoing and still getting updated here and there with new figures. The other day I got everything I've painted to date for this project out on the table and grouped for a photo shoot. I realized I should post them here as well.

ReplyDeleteThank you Michal!
DeleteWhat a cracking line-up, Bill. I especially like Shipwreck, Snake Eyes and Sergeant Slaughter ("And that's an Order!!") as I painted them myself a few years ago. Love the blue on the Cobra Troopers - its spot on, imho. What is it please..?
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm not done yet - I've got some more converted figures on my work bench and plans for further expansion.
DeleteThe blue couldn't be easier - black primer, two coats of Reaper Miniatures' "Ultramarine Shadow," then a drybrush of "Ultramarine Blue."
i dont know much about GI Joe, but this looks impressive.
ReplyDeleteyou need to get Serpentor and his crew, always like those guys.
i will admit the animated movie with Roadblock (i think) and Cobra Commander trying to take down Serpentor was cool.
very cool man, nice job!!
Thanks Tim! Yeah, Serpentor is a consideration down the road as well. Next up is going to be boosting my Joes' numbers; there's a bunch more named characters I want to do on the heroic side, and then get some squads going of some of the sub-groups of Cobra troopers - divers, urban assault troops, etc.
Deletethat's cool.,after I get my wild west stuff done, I have a nice pile of Masters of the Universe to get through.
DeleteOh nice, looking forward to seeing what you do with those. I've got a couple MOTU figures in my leadpile as well for someday down the line.
Deletekinda found a deal at a local store that had CMON MotU board game box set plus faction sets and Kickstarter bonus box. so yeah I got quite a bit to do.
