Marvel: Crisis Protocol
The merc with a mouth... the serious version.
My first version of Deadpool is painted up. I say “first” because I’ve got 3 of him (so far). The first, since I was painting up X-Force members, is his X-Force uniform. I’ll also be doing a “serious” version in classic uniform and a pirouetting off of rocket version in classic uniform. Deadpool was also painted using entirely Scalecolor paints, save for some Agrax and Nuln shading on the trashcan. I can’t express how much I love Scalecolor paints. The blends on the grays and blacks were so fun to do and felt so smooth. When painting him it felt like almost nothing I could do would cause the paint job to look bad. It was kind of a surreal experience.
That being said, it was only after I finished Deadpool and Domino that I realized I used a lighter blue than I had originally intended for the black (Navy Blue instead of Abyssal Blue). Now I wonder how much better the black would look had I not done that. Fortunately I’ll get multiple chances on him.
