Imperator Titan

This is an Imperator Titan from the old GW Epic 40K game. I always thought the big gun on the tallest tower looked goofy and impractical, so I replaced it with a Space Marine backpack decoration. The base, by the way, is a compact disc covered in a layer of cork.

Black and white and red all over

This is Wyrd Miniature's Pandora. I've always seen other painters' attempts at monochromatic paint schemes and wanted to give it a try. She is painted entirely in mixes of Reaper's True Black and Leather White (with a little pure white mixed in for the final skin highlight).  I was inspired by the Spanish artist Nekro, who specializes in mixing black and white images of his subjects with splashes of color. As if I didn't have enough references, the ankh on her coat is a nod toward Neil Gaiman's Death.

Watashi wa yorudesu

That's Japanese for "I am the night," what our friend here says as he strikes fear in the hearts of criminals across feudal Japan. This is Anima Tactics' Shinobi reimagined as Batman, complete with ears I made from tiny bits of paper and a batarang I carved from a piece of sprue.

Now I guess I have to find and paint one of those kabuki-masked Japanese demons as the Joker.
