Hunting expedition: Hope it's enough to kill some dinosaurs!
« on: March 02, 2008, 06:45:09 PM »
Some of you have already seen my large, scratch-built nile/congo riverboat. Well here are the figures it was built to transport. Every one of these figures fits on the boat with room to spare.

Some of these figs have already been seen on these forums, sorry for any repeats- I was reorganizing my blog and found some forgotten photos. Hope you enjoy!

Very nice, I like the 'Just before they set off group photo'. You should do one in sepia or black and white just for artistic reasons. 8)

It seems your steamer will be in good hands, very nicely done.

You have really put together a collection of select miniatures there, EC. All very neatly presented. Just beautiful.

@dusser: They are from the Copplestone gangster range. Very useful

Todd, the porters are Tibetan porters  from Copplestone's yak train set (found in either his Back of Beyond or High Adventure ranges.)

Lovely figures (and a nice realistic bearer/porter to Hunter ratio...). What rules set will you be using these with...?

I use these with a couple rulesets: Tusk- the grandaddy of all dino-hunting rulesets (predating at least Saurian Safari, Mammalian Mayhem, Tooth and Claw and .45's Valley of the Thunder Lizard; and (the free ruleset) Mesozoic Hunter which can be found at its own Yahoo group.
