Ok gang, my apologies for taking so damned long. Hopefully the wait is some what worth it... Without further adieu, here's my entry: The Black Harlequin!
Our friend here is made up of several Hero Clix figures, The Joker's body, Harley Quinn's head, the hands of The Puppet Master as well as the puppet Susan Storm and The Thing. I also added a toy robot which is actually a CAV infantry figure. The cane is a piece of brass wire with a bit of putty added to the top.

P.S. If I'd had a little more time, I would have hit him with a coat of dull coat laquer I think... the Magic Wash is coming off a bit shiney. Also, I've never taken digital photos of a figure before, so lighting tips are welcome. In fact, I'm a hair late because the battery of the camera died as I was trying to upload the pictures to my computer for editing. Figures!!!!

You ain't kidding Proditor! Here's a slightly better scan of him... I placed him on the scanner for this one (which is why there are little green flecks... flock material fell on the glass). I'm going to try taking some better pictures later in the week I think, but I know judging has to be done on these.

P.S. Bill and RM, how do you guys get such nice pics?
Makes me giggle with evil glee.![]()
Beautiful work Myrlyn, particularly like the toys about him.
Thanks RM and Blue! I wanted to add a small prop plane (like and old WWI fighter or WWII), but couldn't get a mini that would work well except the WizKids Crimson Skies figures (like this one), but I could only buy them in $15 blisters. Wasn't going to pay that much just for the effect, and didn't hav time to paint any of the old Crimson Skies metal figs.

Still waiting on PM's from Blue and Myrlyn, and I'm leaving Redmenace's as "pending" as he had to vote early due to civic commitments. S'okay, though, folks have till the 22nd after all.![]()

I relented and turned on my PM. At least for a while.
Vote sent.
Much appreciated.ID sent in reply.
I know I've said this in like every PM and multiple times here, but I really want to thank everyone who modded and everyone on the boards who voted. This is something I'd like to keep doing, and it's nice to see that I'm not alone in that.
