I have the Power - Painting and Playing Masters of the Universe - Clash for Eternia from CMON
Part 3 - Painting the Core Box Heroes
The Eternian guards were a bit more involved than the villainous hover bots but batch painting allowed me to address both guards and royal guards at the same time. Overall, the regular and royal guards are the same, with the exception of the helmet and weapons.
Man at arm is essentially a guard with a firearm (and a very 80s mustache).
Ram Man always struck me as a fantasy dwarf upsized to human height. It was quick and fun to paint.
Teela bears a classic pose and was a breeze to paint. I went with the white tunic after some of the cartoons.
Orko was very fun to paint, with a cartoony look and good contrasting colors. It begs to be reused as a wizard in other skirmish games.
By far the most fun I had with the heroes faction was painting Stratos as i too some time to create the jetpack reflections on his gear and body. The end result is a fun blend of colorful highlights and shadows.
Orko is the best thing ever! What an ace mini!
Teela looks incredible too.
I just love what you’ve done with this set. They’re instantly recognisable, bold, bright, and so much fun. I kind of want to paint them now after seeing how great yours came out.
Thank you much 🙂 I really loved painting this set and so look forward to the KS later this year so as to get all the extras (and paint them). For now it is back to my MCP Avengers project (as a way of remaining in the comics/cartoon world).
Let me know if you have any questions about the paints I used. I found the new GW contrast to be very well tuned to the cartoony/toy style of the miniatures (as they are to marvel characters).
