Hi!

Heres the first member of my new outlaw gang Wee Rab!

Posted Image

Wee Rab is a midget with an attitude and is the most recent addition to Angelinas gang of misfits and cutthroats.

Hired on for his sneakyness and homicidal attitude Rab is armed with a repeating crossbow which allows him to shoot at opposing gangers from concealment, coupled with his small stature this has made Rab quite effective at sneaking up on unsuspecting enemies and shooting them in the back. This hasnt endeared him to his peers who generally consider him to be a treacherous little oik (rightly so as it happens)

Despite his small size, Rab is a veritable terror in close combat as his head is level with most peoples groins and hes more than willing to repeatedly headbutt opponents in tender areas.

Rabb is also noted for consuming vast amounts of alcohol and chasing anything wearing a skirt.

The miniature itself is one of the old D&D Chainmail Gnomes but I think hes turned out nicely as an unusual addition to my force.

And the excellent paint job doesn't hurt either!
My hands are blistered from trying to get a grip on reality!

A VERY characterful wastelander (check out his medical bag & stethescope, stylish hat and nipple rings) with nameless henchman/bodyguard. Both are Copplestone minis.

Doctor Greenthumb- Drug dealer.

In a world of bizzare and potentially lethal chemicals and mutated (and yes, potentially lethal) plantlife, a drug dealer with a flair for invention can make a pretty good living. Whether you want heightened senses and awareness, or just to spend three days staring blankly into space, the good doctor's always coming up with new and interesting ways for Nu London's population to get off their faces.

Natalia- Wasteland Witch.

By day, she makes money as a fortune teller and seller of supposedly mystical junk to gullible idiots. This is just a front, as Natalia's one of a rare few born with genuine and very powerful black magic abilities. Needing no weapons, she instead relies on voodoo curses and summoned spirits in battle, making her a much sought after hired gun, and a target for the New Londinium Corporation who have outlawed all forms of magical/mental/spiritual powers.

She's the first of a few Wyrd Malifaux minis I've picked up recently. In the fluff, she's an ice witch and wears mostly white, so I've painted her in brown. Go figure...

Might give her a little crew of monsters.

The Arcade Boys- Soldiers of Fortune.

Answering only to the codenames Player 1 (brown) and Player 2 (green) this pair of heavily armed mercenaries have survived numerous missions against impossible odds, and usually with a lot of unnecessary collateral damage. For whatever reason, they believe themselves to be stuck in a videogame and that the only way out is to keep taking increasingly more dangerous missions until they achieve a fabled "high score".

Armed to the teeth and seemingly blessed with the luck of the devil, they take no payment except the chance to loot bigger weaponary, food and medical supplies as "power ups" from the battlefield. They've also been known to occassionally carry off an attractive female in the belief that they're rescuing her.

Some say they're an NLC super soldier experiment gone horribly wrong, others claim they're just two nutjobs warped by too many combat drugs.

A pair of Void jungle commandos. I love this particular range of minis.

I was playing one of those retro arcade compilations, and a couple of the simple old "one or two colour coded player soldiers take on an entire army" type scrolling shoot em ups when I figured that'd be a fun idea for some PA characters. I was originally going to do them in blue and red, to really go for the old arcade feel.

WOWWOWWOWWOWWOWWOWWOW !!!!!

that is the cry of the NORTH AMERICAN cougar (mountain lion, cata -mount, panther, painter) and when a bod is OUT THERE and hears it, it is time to worry!

guys! i am worried! my nephew has offered to bring his camera down here, show me how to use it and leave it with me so i can take photos of my stuff.


at my very best, before nerve damage and arthritus got me, i could never paint as well as what i _routinely_ see here, yet i was considered to be among the better painters in the DFW area for years. in fact, contract painting supported my hobby during the bad times, even paid the bills and put food on the table in really bad times.

the only reason i even mention this is, now, at very best, i am sure that my stuff would be considered to be "wargamer standard" paint jobs.

are y'all sure that you want me to send photos of stuff to eyeball that does not even come close to the daily standards i see here?

Hell yeah DAWGIE! It's always good to see other peoples toys, no matter what they look like. ( I'm sure you're being too harsh on your painting)

Go for it Dawgie. Don't be too hard on yourself. Besides its a nice way to salute your friends who paint for your you. If they are in business as painters then it might throw work their way too.

Go for it Dawgie. I'm not the best painter either, and "wargame standard" is still pretty good in my book.
