Superheros: Renaissance Man and Lady Eidolon

One of the reasons I wanted the Cthulhu: Death May Die: Fear of the Unknown game was for the included miniatures that could be made into superheroes. This gentleman and lady were my first choice for investigators to paint up.

On the left is Mike, the strongman, and my version looks a bit different from the official art. Why have everyman investigators when you can have a team of mystery men to fight the eldritch horrors instead? He turned out looking even better than I expected. I'm going to call him Renaissance Man for now (which is an old pun from the sidekick I painted up, Baroque Boy); the name is subject to change.

Wikipedia defines an eidolon as "a shade or phantom look-alike of the human form." On the right of the picture is Lady Eidolon, a pulp heroine who uses the mystical powers of the Hemotite Akinakes, an ancient Persian Dagger. She has some of the basic "vampire-like" powers without being a vampire herself.

Pulp heroes, assemble!
