Here's a couple of pics of expedition financier Captain Spaulding, examining the ruins at the dig site in Egypt:

Hope you like them. All comments accepted with the grace of angels.

Excellent!

Groucho (err Capt. Spaulding) should appear at least once in every pulp gamer's group.

Lovely figure & I like your treatment of the ruins :love:

It's probably a very silly question, but who makes him?

Cheers,

Thanks. He's a Copplestone figure.

I'm glad you like the ruins, I was a bit annoyed with the way they turned out actually, I thought they were a bit too brown rather than sandy yellow.

I agree, with the Proff., JBob. What painting technique are you using? Wash and drybrush?

Hammers · « **Reply #8 on:** November 12, 2007, 02:50:33 PM »

Love the presentatition, BTW. Arround here I have mosltly seen Plynkes and the Proff. dramatizing their displays before. :-)

Thanks Hammershield. Glad you like them.

Yeah, a simple wash and drybrush, but with very thinned ink for the wash. At least for the terrain. I'm trying to go for a more layered style with the actual figures now. I think it's working.....

Thanks JB - I knew it was a silly question! I just couldn't remember where I'd seen him before.

Must get me one of those, then. That may postpone my next purchase from Rattrap, though :twisted:
