Title: Nefarious Antagonist
Post by: d phipps on 16 March 2010, 04:35:38 PM
Here is another collaboration effort, with most of the important work being completed by Paintmeister Jebus. I’m planning to use this league as the primary antagonist for Tiger Princess (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=17140.0) but I don’t have much backstory put together so far. The miniatures pictured below are manufactured by Foundry, Pulp Figures, and Copplestone –

The League of Wily Oriental Gentlemen.  ;)

Known to British intelligence, naturally, by the shorthand of "Wogleague". Known to the Americans by a string of expletives I won't repeat here.

I recognise the Sihk as a Pulp Figures sculpt (nearly bought that pack myself last weekend...) and I'm fairly sure the fez-wearer is Artizan. Who does the rest?

I'd reconsider that if I were you. "Wog" is British slang for non-white people that has an equivalent level of offence to "Black."

I've always considered "wog" a colourful, slightly archaic Britishism, but if current usage puts it at the same Defcon status as "the n-word" then obviously "Wogleague" is inappropriate. My apologies.

Stop him? We're going to encourage him! Pulp gaming is vastly improved by the addition of funny hats, as Bob Murch demonstrates to the world regularly. I plan on starting my own pulp hat collection when my budget allows!

Sorry, Wolf Girl!

I think it has always had that offensive connotation (certainly has all my life). It's just that in previous decades folks didn't care who they offended, and you would hear it bandied about much more than you do now.


Anyway, never mind that. Gorgeous buildings, vehicles and figures. I am extremely envious. I especially like the Sikh fellow.

The Fez-wearer is actually a Foundry figure. The others are Copplestone DOAG askari (I was painting some just last night as it happens).

To me all British expressions sound quaint and charming, but I am staring to think I would get beaten up less when I am in GB if I stopped smiling endearingly at people who call me a 'f*cking c*nt'.

Great paintjob on those antagonists by the way. You should participate in LPL with your stuff.

Very nice!

I am not fond of those dull colours-what-the-name-khaki-or-whatever-it's-called, but your choice is exceptionally, like very much.
