Thanks David,

At the moment 'Tales of the Golden Monkey' is in the lead by a narrow margin with 'In the Navy' and 'The Maltese Falcon' close behind in joint second, but another 8 hours to go before we close the poll, so lots of opportunities for new backers to join the campaign and get their votes in!

Were not far off reaching third stretch goal and voting for another pack of miniatures and their are lots of new Pulpy nominations to join the list including Jungle Girl, The Phantom, The Spider, Spysmasher, Green Hornet and a stack of evil masterminds from 'The Republic' serials.

This is going to be the inspiration for pack 4, voted for by backers of the Classic Movie Miniatures campaign. Four mini's inspired by Jake, Corky, Sarah & Jack. It would be great to do a second pack inspired by 'Bon Chance', Rev Tenboom, Koji & Todo! so if we hit enough stretch goals we'll see what we can do.

We're about £300 off voting for the next 'inspired by' pack.

I would never purchase a figure of Stephen Collins (Jake) after he admitted to being a child molester. Some people can separate the actor from the character though.

That's a cool old tv series. I can't wait to see how the minis turn out!

Just passed the next stretch goal for Sally 4th Classic Movie Miniatures Kick Starter, so voting has just started to choose the movie to be the inspiration for pack five in the range. These are the nominations.

Yesterday it was a dead heat between Abbot & Costello 'In the Navy' and 'The Maltese Falcon', so going to be one of those next, will know this evening.

Vote for pack 5 won by 'The Maltese Falcon'

(https://scontent-lht6-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/l/t1.0-9/22221714_1688564724522079_4695576190692452234_n.jpg?oh=d382833c7182721874b42dbd541be859&oe=5A4351DD)

Campaign runs for another 4 days, completing on Sunday 8th, so hopefully we will get another pack to vote for.

2 days left for Classic Movie Miniature campaign.
We are about £600 away from stretch goal for pack 6.
As Ann & I are all packed and heading off for Derby Worlds in the next few minutes, we've decided that if we reach the £3000 stretch goal the next pack will be inspired by Abbot & Costello and The Andrews Sisters 'In the Navy' as this was such a close runner up to 'The Maltese Falcon' in the vote for pack 5.

Hot off the press... Mark has just sent my this photo of pack of 4 nurses. The idea is that these are US Army nurses from Pacific whose positions are being over run and have picked up some weapons from casualties to defend them selves.

They look rather useful. Any chance of an inked version of the minis to pick out the detail?

OK, not done this before, but had a go painting some Citadel Blue glaze over the miniatures.

The Private Investigation pack, I did first washed over bare metal and it pooled a lot, so other two packs I sprayed with matt varnish before inking.

It does help show more of the detail. They look like they'd make good villains and allies for a Pulp Tintin game I'm looking at doing with Fistful of Lead rules.

They will certainly be very compatible as Mark sculpted these, and of course the lovely Tin-Tin figures for 1st Corp.

This weekend I painted up a pack of 'Everything but the Goose' miniatures. I just had time for a very quick and basic paint job, but I'm very happy with how they've turned out. I love the Jack Russel with an eye patch and the 'Gold Monkey Statue' is bound to be used as a plot point in many a game of Pulp Alley.

(https://scontent-lht6-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/28168235_1836710063040877_6194682657562671438_n.jpg?oh=42f9253495573412b5baa96fa6c90fa6&oe=5B487F34)

I posted a set out to Mark last week so hopefully we'll see a properly painted set soon.

Just painted up a set of the 'Private Investigation' pack from our Classic Movie Miniatures range, complete with a nice little Falcon Statue plot point. Sorry about the basic paint job, I'll post some more photos when Mark gets his set painted up!
