    The roar of...THE ENGINE!

    This is my original character THE ENGINE. Sort of a steampunk avenger-type. Battling evil robots in a turn of the century metropolis.



    He wields a grapple gun and a electrically powered glove that allows him to smash robots with "bolt punches" His suit is a snake-skin weave that makes him tougher and insulates him.





    I was inspired by Thunderbolt (As I often am) to use some different textured materials. The head is a mold/cast of a power ranger head. The paints looked okay, but when I took the pictures I thought the looked pretty rough. Been awhile since I painted eyes. I'm rusty.



    thanks for looking!

          Man, always blaming me. Love it, great to see your contraption building skills infiltrate the figures. I sorta have something like that planned for Iron Fist.
