This figure (my 4th custom...after this I think I can stop counting :D ) is from Marvel Comics new event: Fear Itself! The Serpent rains hammers down on Midgard, summoning beings powerful enough to become his Worthy!
A hammer falls on Yancy Street, and Benjamin Grimm- The Fantastic Four's Thing- picks it up, transforming into Angrir, the Breaker!
First, I applied a bright yellow wash over the entire figure. I then rubbed Fire orange, and Scarlet red into the cracks with my fingers (I like the low-tech approach.) This gave a nice fiery tone, to which I then applied a dry brush coat of Citadel Chaos Black, and then a wash of Tamiya Military Grey, being careful not to cover up the bright fiery colors.
While the figure dried, I sculpted the weird 'leech' thingies Angrir has covering his body, as well as started the armor. The leech creatures got a custom pinkish yuck color, and the armor pieces got a few layers of black, grey and then a dry-brush of mithril silver for a metallic 'cast iron' look. His 'loin cloth' is leftover from a ML X3 Jean Grey skirt, and his breast-plate was sculpted from Apoxie Sculpt (as was the rest of his armor). His symbol was printed out & applied as a decal.
A quick Dullcote application and some pics later, and voila:
Angrir walks the earth!!!
As always, looking forward to your feedback!!
