So here's my next Mod I'm gonna try to finish by the New Year, she's got rough paint still needs some smoothing out and a little more detail sculpting, as if a belt of skills will be a little sculpting :)
I wanted to get Thoughts on a Decent Dial. As usual I'd like to get a good dial with same team symbol (or same ability with diff symbol) So Probably a Brotherhood or X-men as she has worked with both, I can't think of others that would apply but am open to suggestion (obviously, that's the purpose of the post lol) Could also have no affiliation of course. :) Let me know what you think I'm looking forward to hearing from you all.

[Mr. Pilkington]

Nice job. Bulleteer with a CT Invisible Girl head?

[tyroman]

nice job :)

[bystarlight71]

Awesome. I think it would be sweet if she had the x-men TA, they haven't made one with it yet.

[killardan]

i know she isn't one but if she had skrull ta with some shape change and super senses.

that would be awsome.

[Neverfate]

Very well done. Classic.

[The7ofDiamonds]

Until we get a new dial, I am actually quite happy with the Armor Wars Unique we have of her... both in Sculpt and Dial..... but yeah, we really need to get a new one!

You are correct Sir, the right arm is from an Indy Fig, I can't recall her name but she has a white mask and dual wields Uzi's, But Rep to you for guessing! I had forgotten to post her parts, oh and of course the skirt is all epoxy putty.

i know she isn't one but if she had skrull ta with some shape change and super senses. that would be awsome.

Yeah I was looking at doing that for comic power accuracy, ooooh and some placticity as well. Maybe make a card that gives her the TA without the symbol and allows wildcards to copy.

Was looking for dials myself and I'm actually surprised by this one, What do you all think? Yeah I know Damage sucks but Mystique isn't what I'd call a heavy hitter.

on the other end of the cost spectrum this could work as well

(Attack) Scheme: Skrull Emperor can use Outwit. He can use it normally, or choose a keyword and counter the same power or ability possessed by all opposing characters 10 or fewer sqyares away that possess the chosen keyword.

(Damage) Emperor: Skrull Emperor can use Enhancement and Leadership. When he uses Leadership, on a result of 3 or 4, add one action to your action total; on 5-6, add two actions. Skrull Emperor can use Perplex, but he can target only characters with which he shares a keyword.

But agreeing with reviews you don't get a lot of practicality for the points, I look forward to seeing any dials you have to suggest. Thanks for checking out my post.

That'd be Tiger Lily, the BCF/0-range figure with two machine pistols. I always figured the BCF just meant she couldn't hit squat the the pistols past point-blank range. :laugh:

As for dial options, V Abbey Chase would be decent, if kind of lacking in the Attack Value.

Nearly finished now just needs a hair of touchup, a new base (Still up in the air on that was hoping for more suggestions) and lastly some 360s. Let me know what you think, those that rep'd I thank you dearly. Also please still submit what you think would make a good sub in for Mystique! Thanks again all whove posted or even looked at this thread.

The Masked Manhunter might be a good dial for Mystique

I had forgotten how desperately she needs a remake.

Thats a good suggestion

[zero_cochrane]

The Masked Manhunter is an excellent dial; I used it for Moon Knight.

[W.I.T]

Great job on the mod.

As far as a dial goes, the Masked Manhunter seems a little overpowered for a Mystique dial. 2 10s with an 11 AV? 3 Damage? The Stealth and Shapechange are perfect. Honestly, I'd go with this dial:

Range: 4 :bolt:
Points: 47

The Toughness isn't very accurate, but the AV seems right. You could also make a custom dial for her.

[WolvieFan9]

I would look for a dial with a "mutant" keyword so I could at least play her on a Brotherhood team. (I wish I could get into the Units section here at work -- stupid filters.)

Great figure, though -- she looks excellent!

[Ringer]

if you can be a little flexible with TA, Batgirl from Crisis looks like a perfect fit.

[dlinquent]

Freaking awesome dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's some early production Pics

[icknaybob]

Are the fleshy parts the model with the paint stripped off or putty? If its putty, what kind and brand do you use? Thanx.

Head to Al's Clix Cave. It has a Units section of its own that at least my work doesn't firewall.

[JOwenR2]

The Grey parts ar my Sculpy sections and I use the terribly named (I can't believe the didn't say their name quickly lol) "Pro Creat" it was $11.00 @ my local hobby store (Nod to Great Escape Games in Sacramento) they were out of green stuff, so I tried it (as my greenstuff from citadel was rapidly depleting) you get a lot more and they give a color to workability/hardness ratio guide chart for mixing the 2 parts. I'm a convert now :). The fleshy was the wierd Origins/JL flesh plastic WK was using, I stripped with a knife to smoothe out some sculpted in lines.

[jbship628]

You should use Esme Cuckoo for the dial. It's got the right TA, Perplex is spot on, and while the dial is psychic in nature, Mystique has shown a definite knack for getting enemies to do what she wants them too (Mind Control) by disguising herself, and also adept at finding weaknesses. (Psychic Blast)

Also, anyone ever notice the Cuckoo sculpt is exactly the same as the Bulleteer scupt, it's just revered in posture and some clothing?

What do you all think about,

Oh and She's All done here's a link to my album for the 360 :)

OK well those early shots seemed to contradict my original pic of a full mod w/ no belt, so I'll let the cat out of the bag, I'm making 2 the new one (early shots) is nearly finished and will have a slightly diff head position, and the gun will be raised, I'll get pics up as soon as I can, Thanks again for your posts, both comments and suggestions, all are useful and appreciated.

[JOwenR2]

Here's another thought on the dial
mu061 V Dark Beast
Team: The Brotherhood
Range: 0 :bolt:
Points: 69
Keywords: Brotherhood of Mutants, Morlocks, Mutant, Scientist
m-boota-fistd-starburstg-starburst8101728917279162781627815297172KOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKOKO
(Attack) Sadistic: Dark Beast can use Exploit Weakness

(Damage) Cruel Experiment: Give Dark Beast a power action and roll a d6. On a result of 3-6, give an action token to an adjacent opposing character with zero or one action token. On a 5 or 6, deal 2 unavoidable damage to an adjacent opposing character. On a 6, deal 1 damage to each adjacent opposing character. Apply all applicable results, which may be split among different characters.

I'd just drop the scientist and Morlocks keywords (leaving brotherhood and mutant) then rename the SPs, Hit you where it hurts, and Backstabber , or something like that

[JOwenR2]

I 've realizes the terrible flaw with my Beast Suggestions, No range on a girl with a gun, It may be Tiger Lilies but I don't have to repeat their mistake on her, oh and I'm going to have new Pics up of the second version tonight :)

[JOwenR2]

And Here She is, now I have 2 slightly different Poses.
