Title: WW II Pin-Up Sophie at ReaperCon 08
Post by: Glitzer on April 06, 2008, 02:34:17 PM

I just found the drawn preview for the new Reapercon Mini 08 on http://www.reapermini.com/ , so I thought I might share this find with the weird war community

I've no idea what to do with a Pin-Up Succubus, but I think I want one when it's going to be a 28mm mini.

The concept drawing looks good!

I might try to get one, leave the wings off, bob her ears and make her a "historical" WWII pin-up.

They have the green up in their 'greens' previews:

The wings look stupid, IMHO....

Any chance of a not-Peter Sellars to go with that bomb?   :mrgreen:

It was Slim Pickens that rode on  the bomb.

Though most of the characters would make great character figures. I'd love one of Sellers as the RAF chap.

Strangely enough, I've always wanted a pinup-girl-riding-bomb mini, and have even thought about commisioning one.  However, she should be riding the bomb bucking bronco style, and those wings have got to go.  Still, pretty cool.

Ladies ride side-saddle ;-)

Her wings don't look right for the trajectory of the bomb, do they?

I don't think I want my pin-up girls to be "ladies".   :)
