Blackwolf, That's your best pic so far I reckon :-* Brilliant!

Yours too Gnomehome, there's something very charming about that pic  :)

Fabulous Guy. Another superb collection of figures and vehicles, and intriguing and atmospheric as ever.

Love the idol though. Fish tank ornamentation presumably? Thank God for aquarists  :)

Not really, part of a kids board game, 'The forbidden bridge'  http://www.boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/3945/forbidden-bridge

I just removed the mechanical parts (if the head was pressed, the arms moved), some filler and a quick paintjob.

The miniatures are Pulp Figures with one Rafm native tossed in.

I like my games like my orange juice: pulpy with no added sugar or artificial sweeteners

I love the Last Earl. The paintwork is fantastic, the photography great but more it is real inspiration for AVBCW

Where do you get these sorts of figures from?- that's what I love about the LPL
These are both really good and well worth drooling over

 Thanks Nick,bought most of the figures from you too :)

 Thanks Bugs :)

 The minis are mostly Artizan 'Thrilling Tales',the Earl is Muttonchop as is the armoured car and it's commander,the car is an Lagonda from Matchbox and the motorcycle,well god knows? lol

Big fan of Blackwolf's entries. They often seem to have a genuine, documentary look to them, like a snapshot taken before a momentous historical occurrence.

Great job on that Pulp figure's butterfly net!
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.
