Thank you chaps. I find the idea of lesbian tankgirls strangely irresistible...  :D

Strangely, yes. I get more of a castration anxiety feel by that idea.  :?  ;)

Wonder how much of that was due to Bernadotte's influence?  :D

Apologies for bringing this thread back from the undead... (Mwu-hahahaha!)

But I've added a few more figures to my VSF/Gothic Horror Transylvanians…

Am planning to field a ‘Principality of Transylvania’ IHMN force at our British Lead Adventurers outing in a few weeks time… The estimable Dewbakuk has kindly provided me with an army list – most of which means nothing to me - but I’m sure it will make sense once I’ve actually played the game.

Will be nice to play a game with my own figures, so decided to add a few reinforcements… Just in case a larger force, or more variety in characters is required… Some of these are supernumeraries more than combatants – there’s always room for a few extras in my own rudimentary ‘Whitechapel Gun Club’ rules. Don’t know whether there is in IHMN – we shall find out!

Fairly quick and dirty paintjobs staged as light relief from my C15th medieval paint production line!


Oleg the castle gatekeeper



Brum Shtoka, the Count’s ancient chauffeur - permanently drunk on the Old Tokay



Captain Kurtz, the Count’s military adviser



A couple more foot-sloggers for the Carpathian Rifles… (Bugger, I’ve just realised that - unlike their comrades from a couple of years back - I’ve painted them without gloves… Ah well, not re-doing them now  ::) )



Doktor Mordechai Hzardcy, consultant haematologist and revenant monk...



Tatiana Bigova, castle housekeeper, flourishing the wolf’s head standard of the Principality…



Oleg and Brum come from the Brigade Games RCW train crew set. Kurtz and Mordechai from the same range (Russian officers pack). All Mike Owen sculpts I believe. The Carpathians and Tatiana are from Copplestone’s BoB range. They all fit pretty well together.

Here are the new additions together...

Tremendous work you have done, Good idea to use the BoB miniatures for a more fictional setting, I might steal that idea... ;)

Except perhaps Mars and Mexico...  ::)  ;)

Now back to your hula-hula skirt  :)

I don't recognize the chauffeur though.  Where can I get him? Total character  ;D ;D

He and the chap waving the lantern are both from the Brigade Games RCW ('Storm in the east') Russian train crew pack.
