Title: They Is The Law, done
Post by: Alfrik on 07 June 2010, 08:40:22 PM

Finished up a collection of Pulp Action police officers for my pulp games needs, and they will also be pressed into the 1st Motorized Precinct Infantry for a interwar ACW2 campaign.. sort of very early swat team :)

Of course the bases work lags behind, but will be simple gravel, being most roads in the 20s to 30s were simply graveled.

And there you have it.

Nice. Can't have enough coppers around. I like your idea of using them for ACW.

Looking good.

I need some polices for my own games, but yours play the part quite well.

Who sells them?

Thanks.

Alfrik,
Is that supposed to be Sac PD?  They are nice.  I really like the chief with Bull horn, the sniper and the maxim gun!

If my squad and yours end up on opposite sides, that is going to be confusing.  Mine are already based on asphalt.  They saw action a few weeks ago against Skrapwelder's, Mexicans.

There will be no confusion Leadfool as concerns your police unit and mine in the possible fighting to come. My faction Leader is THE POLICE COMMSIONER!!!  lol All your men are in violation of about 85 regulations and will report for disciplinary action hence forth! Why they are so dispicible in their failure to comply that they will be the lead element for my Penal Battalion!! Black and White Stripped Uniforms and shovels await them.
And do not try to out shout him, total failure will ensue as My Leader has a Megaphone!!!! 

Ps Leave all your police weapons at the front desk and all squad cars parked in the lot.

That is all.

Kthnx

Can't have enough coppers around.

can't agree with that very much ;) ;)

anyway, I'd be more interested to see the sailors who are lurking in the background in similar quality  :)

The fellows in the background are.. well.. dock workers from the Dockworkers Local 86.. a disreputable lot if ever there was one. Always ending up in the slammer for fighting, drunk and disorderly etc, but with the troubled times, they seemed just the sort of tough customers to bring into action alongside the totally justified and honorable Police Commisioners forces to bring law and order!

Im mainly using washes on their clothing as its so faded from all the sun exposure. Bit of dry brushing for the navy pea coats here and there.

Lawmen's bases done with gravel, most common road material in most towns of the period:
