Pulp Adventures

I've picked up a fair few pulp style figures over the last few years, some are old Foundry figures from bits boxes, some are from Ironclad and one from a Kickstarter.

From a Kickstarter, I can't honestly remember which now, but branded as Cthulhu investigators they were reasonably priced and looked good and have painted up well.

Some of the old Foundry stuff is in here, no idea if all of them or not, all of them were picked up from bring and buy or rummage boxes. Some more for Victorian In Her Majesties Name than others.

Lastly, I can't remember if I showed the Mina Harker (centre) figure before, I got her ages ago with Holmes and Watson from IronClad. The other two I have no idea what's so ever, but I use them as the leadership group of my Cultists for In Her Majesties Name.

Burrows and Badgers

The first models from the Kickstarter I picked up in York finally painted, these were a bit more recent and the Adder had been done from a previous Kickstarter,  But these are my crew for the Warren Percy affair. (subject to change with the whims of these things)

Well at least they will be once we get back to normal gaming at club.  I've currently got StoatBarts hauliers on the painting table just now, alongside the amazing Ferret Rogue and the mighty fine upstanding independent Magpie trader.

Full Thrust S'vasku

We've been playing Full Thrust for years, and continue playing it. We've tweaked the rules from stuff we've found online and made a really good playsheet to use at club that covers everything from the four books and the online changes to the turn sequence and fighter rules. I'd finally picked up some flight bases from Templar Wargames at the York show, otherwise they'd probably still be languishing in a box.

When Jon at GZG did his not quite a lockdown sale on Full thrust stuff I ordered up a bunch of fighters for my ESU and a couple of Ships and Fighters to round off my Tyranid Hive Fleet. In Game they get called S'vasku, but we just use them with the advanced Grave drive and normal systems. But it was the kick that was needed to actually get this lot painted, mostly done by painting them Sand Yellow and Electric Blue, then washing them in shades of green, blue and purple to highlight that alien-ess.

Bloodbowl Humans

So it's been a little over a year since I last posted, stuff has still been happening it just didn't make it onto here.  To catch up I eventually got round to taking pictures of everything and I'm going to start getting posts scheduled each week to cover everything what's been happening.

So seeing as the last entry was Blood Bowl, let's start with that.

Some Humans for Bloodbowl, I had a missing one so I picked up Jo from Hasslefree to make up the numbers.

A bit slimmer than the GW plastics but that's to be expected really, never the less, she fits in nicely.

Bloodbowl Orcs

Something caught my eye one day and I started looking at Bloodbowl again, so I dug out my orcs and started painting. over the course of the last month or so alongside other models I've got them finished for now.

Next up is the humans and some other bits and bobs until a new project comes along. But its' a busy time of the year with other stuff so we'll see.

Burrows and Badgers 2nd Kickstarter

Well finally got them finished, it's taken a few months in among painting some Orcs which will be up next. The models as always pretty much paint themselves, they really are such a joy to paint. (Other than fur, but I think I've got the hang of it by now.)

I really need to sit down and try and find a space to take better pictures, the lighting in this house is awful but I don't have an outside area either.
