This started with me buying a bag of 1872 Iron Man figs, thinking I could make a small group of steam soldiers with simple arm and torso cuts to vary the poses. Misadventures there would be a whole other post… As I had found a fair amount of fodder in Mage Knight, I started to look around in Secret Wars, and found the derby sporting Doc Ock and Crossbone, which looked the right period, perhaps Americas, 'Old West.' Avoiding the Steampunk trope of exterior corsets, of which female costumes mods could be found a plenty, does anyone have further suggestions? The less repainting and fewer modifications the better, I hope will be obvious, but any ideas will be welcomed! Doug |

There was a very small set of Bioshock Infinite Heroclix figures that might help. |

Giant Monster: I have several, and should have said so. I HATE having to say sorry and thanks in the same breath… ;->= Wack(Bill?): Good call, though I HAD several, and reacquiring may be problematic. Thanks all! Doug |

Thanks, Saber6, though I will point out I mentioned MK. Have several Steam Behemoths, still trying to figure how to modify to look less 1/35 scale, and golems of several kinds galore. Iron Lung for Nemo vs the fish men(Deep Spawn.) Etc… Doug |
