Zenith 7. Captain Hornet and Typhoon Tracy

 Two more Superheroes for my Zenith Project.

Both of these have been created using Eldritch Foundry which I am finding has been a  fantastic tool to bring many of the characters to life.


Typhoon Tracy

I played with the file to stretch him out to add more bulk and added a wrist band using paper

Capatin Hornet

A costumed adventurer, Captain Hornet stared in his own comic book, though in the Zenith universe he only has a brief moment as a casualty. I was able to match him up quite well using Eldritch Foundry, his jacket is different at the front but matches up to the spirit of him. The Hornet Hoverer would be a great addition, as iconic as the Batmobile or Niteowls Owlship, but something for the future possibily!

Zenith 6. General Jumbo

 General Jumbo is next on my Zenith Project, he is only a child and does not have any superpowers but fought badies/solved crime by having an army of remote control toys.  


In Zenith he only has a couple of background appearances as part of one of the groups assembled to defend one of the parallels and then later he is shown dead.

The General is one of younger 'heroes' drafted into the conflict, pulled in as part of including as many characters as possible but also adds to the tragedy of the story, the desperation of recruiting this level of 'Hero' to try and stop the llogor.

For my version of General Jumbo I created the initial figure using Eldritch Foundry online creator and then redued his size compared to the other figures to give him his child stature. I gave him the remote control form the Zenith version rather than the wrist control and used a file I found on Thingiverse. 
His appearance is more his classic version as well as his tie which I added to the figure with a bit of paper. For his remote control toys I used some ww2 tanks and soldiers from files on Thingiverse
