MCP: Hand Ninjas

Seeing how I just completed 'Shadowland Daredevil', up next had to be the new Grunts for the model, the 'Hand Ninjas'.

Grunts are a new rule in Marvel Crisis Protocol that first start with the 'Nick Fury' character, and now with 'Shadowland Daredevil'.  They do not take up a Roster spot, nor do they have a Threat value.  They are just an added model that comes out when they meet a certain condition based on their parents card.

MCP: Shadowland Daredevil (Matt Mudock)

I really did not think I would be getting to painting this model so quickly (with our current backlog), but I am looking at different Roster options for our next event after Atlantic City Open, and the Criminal Syndicate Affiliation is one of my choices.

'Shadowland Daredevil' which is a recent release for Marvel Crisis Protocol is one of two Leaders for the Criminal Syndicate.  Any rule that can grant re-rolls in this game is a good thing, and his "Shadow War" leadership ability does just that.

MCP: Killmonger (N'Jadaka)

I am not really sure why I painted this model next (I do not have an urgency to use him in an upcoming Roster), I think it was more of I just finished 'Luke Cage' and thought that this model 'Killmonger' would also be pretty easy/quick to paint up.

So, another member of the Wakanda Affiliation, here is 'Killmonger'.

MCP: Juggrenaut (Cain Marko)

I was able to get a few models prepped and ready for the painting table last week, and one of them that I have been wanting to paint for awhile is 'Juggernaut'.

In all honesty, I really do not know much about this character, except he looks pretty cool, and I am glad they added him to the game.

'Juggernaut' was released just before AdeptiCon 2022, but I was not able to purchase him there (sold out), so I had to wait until we got back and had to use my reliable online store Discount Games.

Most of the 'Juggernauts' I have seen painted recently when with a bronzed color helmet for the model, after googling some photos of the character, I elected to go with a red helmet and used one of Army Painter new metallic paints on it.

MCP: Wong

My son still needs to get a few more models completed for his Atlantic City Open roster, and the models that he purchases himself, I usually let him paint them himself unless he or I asks.  I asked him if he wanted me to help out so I completed 'Wong' for him.

MCP: Ronan the Accuser

This past weekend I was able to work on two more models and get a game in (which I barely lost 13-14, time ran out), one of the models is another character for the Guardians of the Galaxy Affiliation, 'Ronan the Accuser'

Usually while painting my models, I use a wash over the model, in a rare instance the model looks good without the wash, and I thought this was one of those times.

Here is 'Ronan the Accuser'

MCP: Drax The Destroyer (Drax)

I thought 'Luke Cage' was going to be the last model for the month of April, but yesterday I sat down and squeezed one more in with 'Drax The Destroyer'.

That is one more model completed for my Guardians of the Galaxy Affiliation, and I believe I only have two more to go.

MCP: Cog 'O' Two Figure/Ruler/Token Tray

I first came across these trays from Cog 'O' Two while we were at the Las Vegas Open back in January, and I knew that if we were going to be playing Marvel Crisis Protocol at any events, these would be a needed (cool) item to have.

They are a bit pricey and I was ordering for two, but the quality is excellent.  If you are ordering from the USA, you will need to find there store on Etsy.

Along with the trays themselves, we also added the rulers and measurement sticks to match.

I elected to go with Captain America, and my son went with Spider-Man.

Each section is magnetized and you can arrange the order any which way you like, obviously when playing at an event, you'll want the figure tray to be on top.

MCP: Luke Cage

I was able to complete one more model for the month of April with 'Luke Cage', after this model I am kind of in a holding pattern, I do not have anything prepped and ready to go. I need to take a look at my backlog and see which model really interests me to paint.

With 'Luke Cage', I was going to his shirt in the usual Yellow that he wears, but I saw that in the TV show he wears a Grey shirt, so I elected to go that route with this model.

MCP: Taskmaster (Anthony Masters)

Real life has been busy the last couple of weeks so my hobbying has slowed down, but I do have another model completed for Marvel Crisis Protocol.

I decided to paint 'Taskmaster' with all GW Contrast Paints, besides the metals (I haven't done that before) and in all honesty, I did not care for it, to much having to go back with base color before applying the next Contrast color.  I do like how the Yellow has been coming out and probably will be using that in the future.
