The curtain call of my Spider-Foes - Mysterio!
A founding member of the Sinister Six (a sort of anti-Spider-Man Avengers), Mysterio doesn't actually have any superpowers. He's just a stuntman with a lot of gadgets and a solid work ethic.
In-game, he's very well regarded. While only having one defence die for physical and energy attacks would suggest he's even squishier than Rocket Racoon, he comes with a whole bag of tricks (and traps) that make him an absolute nuisance to deal with.
He also has an excellent tactics card that basically simulates the effect of having magic powers, even though it's all an illusion.
I've already painted a 3D print of Mysterio and, while it remains one of my favourites, I think I like this one even better.
Retributor Armour for the gold effects, Caliban Green base with Warpstone Glow layer for the bodysuit, Naggaroth Night base and Xersus Purple layer for the cloak.
The smoke and helmet were more subtle. I primed both white, then used Coelia Greenshade on the smoke and Guilliman Blue on the helmet, treating them to a generous drybrush of Ulthuan Grey afterwards.
I now feel obliged to run the entire Sinister Six against some web-heads. Watch this space - ta-da!
