Ryan, saw your earlier picture on page 169 of this thread of your work in progress on the Master, looks like your getting the shape of his headpiece down pat.

I also like your version of Diamond Lil on page 170. You managed to capture her hair really well. I did a version also using Starfire, but added SuperSculpey on top of Starfire's hair instead of removing it, so it looks pretty poofy, and is a little long. I may try again.

Thanks! She was one of the easier figures to complete once I got the hair Dremeled off.

Is it just me, or are the marvel chess pieces a larger scale than the original Marvel Eaglemoss line?

For the DC chess pieces, I found the pawns at least are the right scale, but the Marvel chess pieces that I saw displayed at my LCS were practically a head taller.

So I am willing to pick up the DC chess pawns so far. The only Marvel pawn I like so far is the Absorbing Man. He has a more dynamic pose that works, and I can easily see him being bigger than the average person.

Have people seen any Marvel chess figures whose scale would fit well with the older stuff?

David,  The DC & Marvel Chess pieces are the same size as the original non-chess release. Maybe you saw the Marvel Fact File pieces which are a head taller.

I will see if I can find the new abomination man, compare scales, and then see how my addiction is doing and go from there...

Are the Chess pieces as useful for customizing? Bullseye may have some use.

Poor attempts at improving on the classic costumes claims another victim with a terrible Scarlet Witch. And, like several recent Marvel & DC pieces, the costume has already been changed in the comics.
