2020 in Hobby
Venom Hulk
Unless this is some sort of crazy dream, it appears I’m managing to add a second entry in April. This is utter madness I say. At some point, no doubt, I’ll add a couple of posts detailing some completed hobby work from earlier in the year, but for now will post some bits from the past week, during which the focus has been on completing the Marvel: Crisis Protocol pieces available before the lockdown came down.
And of course, then get immediately distracted into 3D printing an alternative sculpt for the Hulk (with a symbiotic Venom friend).
Like most of the STLs available for Marvel characters, they’re all aimed at printing at a somewhat larger scale than for a 30mm tabletop game, but scaling this down to 20% it printed reasonably well on the Anycubic Photon, with most of the damage caused to the finer pieces by fat fingers patched over with some green stuff coated with superglue to give it some rigidity for some of the more fiddly tendrils.
After some debate of whether to include the scenic base, I came to the conclusion that it more or less fitted on the required 65mm base, and would probably be playable, so went with it.
The quick afternoon painting resulted in a pretty pleasing result. and has certainly been one of the positive outcomes of being able to play with a 3D printer.
And scales pretty well with the official sculpt so all good there as well!
Hulk showdown!
