A pair o' Docs...

And the Man of Steel.

"Steel" on both Doc Ock's arms and mask AND on Doctor Doom's armour.
Further, light orange on Doc Ock's boots and gloves and a mix of dark/light orange on his belt. More yellow on Doctor Doom's cape clasps and brown on his belt and buckle and on the cape chain which will be gold eventually. I think that the cape clasps are meant to be gold, but I like the classic yellow.

Speaking of yellow, more of it on Supe's belt, some red and yellow fixing on the emblem and yellow on the back emblem in an attempt to tone down the black outline.

A few touches.

Lighter green and some flesh toning on Doc Ock, along with some "Metallic grey" on his arms.

Yellow touches to the cape clasps on Doctor Doom

Red on the emblem, yellow on the belt, black outline on the yellow emblem on the cape.

I'd Thay That Thor'th Finithed...

Well, actually he's Norse, not Finnish...

Oh. Finished.

A few touches and the God of Thunder is done. Metallic gun metal grey on his helmet, white on the "wings" of the helmet, grey/white and grey/black on the hammer head, black/brown/white on the hammer handle, yellow highlights on his hair, grey/white/black on the "rocks" on the base and voila!

Some days I just feel like painting...

Orange on Doc Ock's collar, gloves and boots. Black touch ups on Thor's boots, armour and helmet, followed by metallic gun metal grey on his helmet and armour plates. Yellow on belt and boots. He's getting close...
