Humanities Professor - 23 Aug - Idle Pulping

I can't come up with a decent title for the next miniature, chiefly because I haven't worked out whether she's a mere underling or assistant or else a hideously wicked mastermind. Still pondering...

She's lovely anyway!

She's lovely anyway! 

Ayup, excellent work!

[Idle Doodler]

Starting to put together some obviously bad baddies, a megalomaniac's private army, for anyone who wants to game with some nasty pieces of work.

First up, the 'gent' who actually runs the show: the Sergeant. He'll be the league Leader, whilst the nominal leader (little 'l') will be a lowly Follower.

The rest of the army will just be quickly Quickshaded over a basecoat, because I find painting uniforms just so boring, but I thought I'd put a little more effort into this fellow.

[Duke Donald]

I like him; where is he from?

[Idle Doodler]

He's Sgt. Spanner from that fine company, Hasslefree Miniatures.

[Duke Donald]

Thanks, I thought he could be a Haslefree mini, but for some reason I never registered him, despite the time I spent on their website.

[d phipps]

Excellent work!

[dinohunterpoa]

GREAT brushwork! 

[d phipps]

Very cool! Hasslefree make some great minis.

[Idle Doodler]

Agreed! Like Duke Donald, I fear I have spent far too much time on their website...

[Idle Doodler]

While I slog through these uniformed minions, here's one of the leagues I'm looking to roll out in a solo campaign, cards all set to print these off on custom business card sheets - just waiting to finish off a few more models to fill the template out:

A wealthy teenage genius, Cedric Athelhaerd finds mainstream life ever so dull. He thus occupies his time with schemes and plots to further enhance his own wealth. Aided by both his security advisor and his personal secretary, the challenge of unearthing organisations' deepest secrets combined with needing to maintain a low profile (for his grandmother, his only living relative and head of the Athelhaerd estate, is a lady of society, and very mindful of the need to keep the family name clean) is so far proving enough to hold his interest, but surely it is only a matter of time before he looks for a bigger venture...





I'm hoping that Cedric is going to still be standing at the end of any scenario - surely he'll be able to dodge most harm! - and skilled enough in most areas to be of use in claiming plot points. He'll also be churning out gadget after gadget to arm his assistants.





Ivy and Secernere are there to deal with Brawling and Shooting threats respectively. They will also, dice permitting, be armed with enough equipment to attempt most plot points.

[d phipps]

Very cool Pulp Ally league!

THANKS for posting.

[Idle Doodler]

Another minor conversion, this time swapping his right hand's crowbar for a shotgun.

Not the best photo - still have to get used to the Macro setting!

[HerbyF]

Maybe she is the granddaughter or great granddaughter of the Bankroller. Just there to get in everybody's way.

[Idle Doodler]

Aye, therein lies the joy of unarmed miniatures. They could be deceptively deadly beneath their harmless appearance or, y'know, they could actually be harmless. Great potential plot points for Pulp Alley too, though my wife would roll her eyes at the idea of another damsel in distress!
