Recently voted the fourth best Doctor Who story ever, in which the Doctor is drawn into a fiendish plot involving Chinese tongs, disappearing women, an Oriental stage magician, a murderous ventriloquist's dummy and giant rats in the sewers.

There's gotta be a game in there somewhere...

Li H'sen Chang

The Peking Homunculus:

Figures from Black Tree Design.

Deeeelightful, especially the midget

You have certainly got your mojo back.

Lovely! The Talons of Weng Chiang is one of my favourite episodes of Doctor Who. Painting the minis got me interested in VSF!

Or the continuing adventures of Lightfoot and Jaygo!

Don't forget the giant carnivorous sewer Rat! - 54mm scale at least!

(Nice painting on the figs, by the way...

).

Excellent episodes, all. Nice to see a poll get something right for once!

Excellent stuff - that Peking Homunculus is a still a sinister little bugger!

Lovely work and definitely a great episode!

You'll have to find a really special mini to convey the terror of the giant rat to the table top!

Well, given how 'terrifying' the giant rat was on the TV, a plush glove puppet should just about do the trick!

Thanks all for the comments. I could use some Chinese gang members now: any suggestions?

Foundry... Chinese bandits/Boxers and pirates.
