Ghostbuster Hellblasters with 'Green' Horror Slimer and Stay Puft Nurgling:

Nice

And you could you Sister of Battle models to celebrate the 2016 Ghostbusters movie!

Edit: see video post below

HA! Stay Puft Nurgling is the best!
Got closeups of those shoulder pads? Want to see that freehand GhostBuster logo, is it free hand? it looks freehand.

Got a challenge for ya. Captain planet and MrT

I wasn't as proud of the ghost symbol. Even blown up to cover the whole shoulder pad it was difficult to get all the details (had to emit the nose and eye brows of the ghost) and each one has slight differences that kinda annoy me. But it's as good as I'm gonna get it.

Not sure I could do Capt. Planet. Terrain is so polluted, I'm sure he's long dead by the 41st Millennium, lol.

I am working on a Dreadnought/Dreadknight Optimus Prime though

NICE!
That must of took forever.
I don't mind freehand detail work, but when I need to repeat it few times that is super hard. Respect.
Of course they will be slightly different, but the unit is viewed as a whole and the ghosts are similar enough that read together well.

I wondered though why you went with white background instead of white ghost on black background. My laziness makes me think that white ghost on black background would of been a bit easier to paint instead of maintaining solid black outline drawing.

I was kidding about Captain Planet lolz.
But! Now that I think about it. In the context of 41st Millennium he could be a Necron. Died and resurrected. (scifi undead)

Standing by for Optimus Prime.

My originally idea was to have the entire shoulder pad as the red circle and slash, so I just left the whole pad white (which is the color I chose to prime these guys)
When I got to painting the icon, the slash was too high and pushed the Ghost way too off center. So I had to put it a lot lower.
I also didn't do a black background because I wanted the whole pad to pop, and with the black proton pack so close, I didn't think I'd get the desired effect. That, and by having the background the same color as the ghost, it hides imperfections better

I knew there was a reasonable reason behind the decision.
So it turned out a quite tricky symbol to fit into shoulder shape. Well done man!

This is the best timeline

Awesome work. The trap effect is fantastic.

Those are glorious. Are they getting a ride?

Thanks for sharing

The bunny ears on the auspex, that's attention to detail.

Spectacular work!

Got an updated turntable video, including Gozer and the Terror Dogs:
