So, the joke in the title only really works if you’ve seen the most recent Deadpool movie, this miniature being what I immediately dug out and started prepping when I got home from the cinema after seeing:
It then took me months to actually get her finished despite being basically three colours, but inspiration strikes where inspiration strikes I guess.
She’s teeny tiny, and so zoomed in like this the paint job looks extra scrappy, but on the tabletop she’s perfectly adequate, I assure you. Considering going back and giving the X on the front of the Cerebro helmet some more love, but on the other hand done is done…
Like Danger she’s a mini that isn’t really needed at the moment (that being a couple of teams of archetypical X-men and X-foes to get started), but being keen to not have even more half painted miniatures knocking around she got finished regardless. It’s been so long since I read Grant Morrison’s X-Men run that I can’t even think who else I’d need to paint to accompany her to make a thematic Super Mission Force Team…
Either way, the Tally now stands at:
7 vs 24 = -17
You are so right, inspiration comes whenever the muses want and only them. Cool job and nice addition!
