Title: Mrs Edith Freund , her boy.( and potential friends /wip update 21/11)
Post by: tin shed gamer on July 03, 2020, 05:45:14 PM: Just a little fun piece for the hell of it.
It's a musing on portraying a golem and it's master in a different way.

Post by: marianas_gamer on July 03, 2020, 10:23:35 PM: Whoa!!! :-* :-* Love the old lady with the (voodoo?) doll and rod behind her back. Totally intriguing. Kindly old kindly from the front, psychopath from the rear. A triumph Mark!

Post by: tin shed gamer on July 03, 2020, 10:35:26 PM: I'm glad you like them :D. It's not a commercial set. They're just knocked up from the left over bits of clay as I'm working. (Otherwise I'd have made sure Edith's shoes looked like shoes.)I promised I'd make something a little different evey now and then through lockdown and post it on the forum. It's doesn't quite fit on my ww2 thread so I popped it on here.
I was just musing on how a golem would work if you dressed it in clothing.In this case a thirties look.
Then it led to what would be more menacing an archetypal baddie or a plump little old lady.
I figured the voodoo doll and wand . Plus the runes and parchment strips were enough to storytelling to conect the two figures.

Frankie-gol, "Yes, Mama."

She doesn't see that he has his fingers crossed behind his back - or the mischievously devilish look in his eye.

Post by: tin shed gamer on July 10, 2020, 07:13:10 PM: Thanks one and all.
As Bob can attest two figures don't make for an economical mould.
But.. Since Lon and cohorts have PM'd asking if I'd send it off for casting.
I thought I'd look through the bit box and dig out some sculpts that may fit in with 'Edith and her boy' and give some context.
And maybe inspire me to finish Edith's feet. Or fit some more odd ball sculpts in to my days. lol

But there's still not enough to make mould worthwhile.

Mark.

Post by: FifteensAway on July 11, 2020, 01:19:14 AM: A moll of quite loose morals, her drunken husband, a dog peeing on a hydrant and you get closer to filling a mold. Alas, they are still in the wrong scale for me but I'm just trying to help! :D

Post by: marianas_gamer on July 11, 2020, 04:44:44 AM: Odd Ball sculpts are perfect for Pulp! Great news.

Post by: Splod on July 11, 2020, 10:17:58 PM: I love that explorer model with the coat and shotgun!

Maybe you could fill out the mould with some assistants for him?

Or maybe play on the 'monster' theme and go with a Hound of the Baskervilles (giant rabid hound), a Ripper, and a Jekyll and Hyde?

Post by: tin shed gamer on July 12, 2020, 04:19:56 PM: Fifteen's
From a scale heathen such as yourself I'll take it as a compliment lol (Infact I've some kinder to clay push next week so while I'm making wee folk I might as well knock you up a figure of your choice in that heathen scale just drop me a PM ( I could do with the practice.;))

Speaking of which the adventurer was just a styling practice for a Blake and Mortimer commission.
There's loads of these type of sculpts floating around in my workshop normally theyre binned or given away during a spring clean.
Found these four I'd forgotten about when taking vehicle pictures today.

Post by: tin shed gamer on August 07, 2020, 08:14:56 PM: Short answer absolutely nothing. They're not going to be used.
After reading thread by 'Mad Guru' I knocked these up.Which has given me a interpretation/ direction to muse over.

Boat loads of character in your work. Well done.

Post by: tin shed gamer on November 21, 2020, 12:07:05 PM: Simon and Mick had a little mould space available. So I gave in and sent Them off.
Because of you lot I've now got to make some more context figures. ::)

Post by: tin shed gamer on November 23, 2020, 04:27:48 PM: Thing's like this( if they end up moulded) are usually found in the 'Follies' range at 1st Corps miniatures.
The 'Follies' range has a Parrallel /sub range . Called the Home front. This is separated under the WW2 heading on their website. As it's mainly item's that have a use on a 20th century themed 'Battle field ' table as well as a 'Pulp/ skirmish' table. If it's of any interest to you I've recently posted some civillians / refugees on my Home front thread over on the WW2 board. Theres a few more cars and trucks and motorcycles that'll work on Pulp tables mixed in amongst it's page's.
