A while back, I got Mark Evans to sculpt me 4 pulpish WWW2 figures that for some reason took a long time to get moulded and cast up.
I will show them here in this thread, starting with the "Red Nun", a Vatican-sent special agent.

There are a few other pulpish action nun figures out there, but they are all bigbreasted, scantily clad hussies that don't seem believable to me. This one is modestly covered and practically dressed for pulpish adventure or fighting nazi's!
-
Oh, nice one :-*
Count me in for one.
What's still to come?
Oh, and how do they size up against Copplestone Gangsters?
-
I don't know, I don't have any gangsters, but will try to check with some copplestone high adventure figures over the weekend.
-
Frothworthy. Count me in!
-
That is superb :-* :-*
Where do i get one :D
-
Soon... ;)
-
Need!
-

Ditto.
Ditto.
and
Ditto!
Wonderful stuff, WK.
I wants.
Now!
:-* :-* :-*
-
:-* :-*Love it.
I need one, and most likely the other characters we have yet to see.
-
You had me at "nun".
-
Neat! Can't wait to see the rest.
-
They're not intended to become part of the general range as I had these made for my enjoyment and they are all "loosely" inspired by other sources.
But don't worry, I'll have some spares.
-
Second one is a wallcrawling pulp vigilante, called Ciderman. ;)

Sculpted by Mark Evans again. Comes with two head variants: with or without hat.
-
Want!
-
Dang! I thought his Nazi Ogre was good, but those are even better.
-
Nazi Ogre?
-
I wanna see the nazi ogre too
I also need one of those cidermen
some outlandish nazi supers would be good to
-
Need, want, call it what you like....(at least) one of everything!
And that is before seeing them all!
:-* :-* :-*
-
You haven't seen the best one yet. ;)
Nazi-ogre thing was part of Mark's old range. No idea who bought the rights. ???
-
Fits perfectly in into my Pulp Supers Project.
So don't have to convert Cidy by my self :D
Show us more
-
Nazi Ogre?
I wanna see the nazi ogre too

I only bought one, as there was only a single variant at the time. Should have got one or two more for different paint schemes. Big, chunky fellow. I'd like to see it re-released.
-
Ok, as you've twisted my arm I'll have one of those too :D

I've seen all four :D ;D
and to really annoy you, I have them all too ;D :D ;D :D
and no I am not telling ;D
not even for cake o_o
But I agree with WK, the best is yet to come :o

I believe the phrase is something along the lines of "Shut up and take my money!" :o

>:( lol
Svenn, you really don't have to tell us, but maybe you could make some pics together with some Copplestone Gangsters?
Oh, and feel free to use the other two minis for that :D
-
oh the nun! I think I'm in love ;D
-
Really like that Ciderman, it reminds me of something but I can't seem to place it right now. Does the name have any 'pun' connections to pulp in the pulping of apples to make said cider? Am I clearly missing the point!? :P
-

My dear Comsquare, of course I would do this for you BUT alas I do not have any Copplestone gangsters
-
Much appreciated, Svenn.
Would have sent you straight away one of mine, but my last spare one went to LeadAsbestos recently ;)
But to be serious, regarding pics, would also be nice to see them near to some Artizan stuff.
Bought a while ago the rattrap Gargoyle mini for my project and he was far to slim compared to the rest I'm using :?

No, you got it exactly. It also vaguely resembles this image, but that's not at all intentional:

Excellent,

-
Yeah I want the whole set, haven't even seen the fourth yet but I'm sure I'll want that too ::).
-
Last one and a personal favourite (though I love the nun too), a tough WW2 character I think of as "Bam Bam"... ;)

:-* :-* :-*
Ok: How do we buy some?
:D
-
Not as an official release, I think, but I can make some available to interested people at £4 each or £15 for the set (+ shipping). If that seems ok, you can drop us a line here: http://whiteknightminiatureimperium.blogspot.be/search/label/All%20posts (http://whiteknightminiatureimperium.blogspot.be/search/label/All%20posts)

I am interested but are there any plans for super nazis?
-
I have some ideas along those lines, but with all the ranges I currently have in development, there's no telling when we'll be able to get around to that.
-
As a simple suggestion, I'd think a plucky young masked war reporter could also make a nice little miniature to accompany the ASS.
Just saying :P

Mine arrived, and they are lovely figures, every bit as good as
They look in the photos. Super fast delivery too.
Mine will be being used in supers games in the near future,

The clearcoat frosted a bit, making her turn out a little grayer than I intended, and there's some rough spots I need to touch up, kind of a rushed paintjob- but I love this sculpt so much I had to show it off.

Very cool! Can I nick these pictures and show them to others? 8)

Certainly, I assume anything posted on the web gets nicked :)
Thanks for mailing the figure out so quick, it's very unusual for me to get something painted up so fast after receiving it!
-
wow nice painting :o
where are the zombies from?

Thanks! I bought and painted the zombies quite a few years ago, they're from West Wind's (Old Glory in the USA) Vampire Wars/Gothic Horror range:

Hmmm. Interesting, I'll have to get that book. :)

Please forgive my ignorance, but can someone tell me exactly who these are 'not'...?
I am going to use them for my own heroes/villains in Strange Aeons but I am now really curious.
:D
-
Okay- now I need the nun figure. My friend pointed out that I used to draw a cartoon (so long ago that I'd forgotten) about "Sister Mary Magnum of the Little Sisters of the Flaming Sabre" (a paramilitary order!)
And now you've created a figure that's perfect for her! Now I have to find ones for Sister Mary Ninja and Sister Mary Katana...
-
Please forgive my ignorance, but can someone tell me exactly who these are 'not'...?
I'll PM you about who they may vaguely resemble. ;)

A couple painted versions of the Bam Bam figure... :froth:
First one by RedZed, in a Pulpish style:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/1017076_170926853089637_1594030645_n.jpg)
Second by Svennn in more serious WW2-ish style:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/1003987_170926856422970_634430728_n.jpg)
-
And for those who asked about a size comparison, here you go (please note Bam Bam is supposed to tower over the others, he's a big fellow):
(http://wk.frothersunite.com/misc/wk/pulpcomp.jpg)
-
Well, I have painted a couple up, but they do not compare well to the other fellas efforts.
Crap lighting for the photos does not help either...
Hey-ho, here they are anyway:
(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j478/themason73/themason73018/7b43dcdc-e649-46b4-a1ef-333db9ffc680_zps2a160afe.jpg)
(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j478/themason73/themason73018/SAcharacters007_zps26bcb011.jpg)
Great sculpts that come highly recommended!
:D
-
At least yours are painted, mine are still bare metal.
Although that star RedZed did send me his painted BamBam shown above. :-* :-* :-*
-
From another thread, Svennn's splendid version of the Red Nun. :-*

This is Pulp!
If these are stil available, they are on the top of my list, as soon as I have fulfilled my newest self-inflicted restriction of purchasing no more than 1 mini for every 5 I finish....
-
There are still a few left. :)
-
Dammit, must get back to the painting table ;D
-
If the worst should happen, I can reorder a small run from the mouldmaker. ;)
-
I only just joined this forum and was told about your Nun Mini from another forum board is there any chance A Nun mini could be purchased?
and would you be sculpting any more?
been looking for a mini to represent Areala Warrior Nun during WWII...
if you do can you let me know how much and I'll pay via paypal.
Cheers
LGW

Greywolf, yes she is still available. You can contact White Knight from here http://whiteknightminiatureimperium.blogspot.co.uk/ (http://whiteknightminiatureimperium.blogspot.co.uk/) or drop him or myself a private message
Svennn

Dammit... I should.... ;D

I keep on forgetting to send my order through... sorry Svennn and WK... will msg you soon regarding the Nun with guns.

Lovely paint job Mason, really like the painting style, weathered and worn.
Would love to see some more of your painted figs.

Forgot to show RedZed's excellent interpretation of Ciderman:

*grumble* ... I had forgotten these (heresy, I know ::) )... now I once more have to consider getting them... ;D

Oh, I knew there was somewhere I'd forgotten to post it. This is what I did to your guy. I've not reached the others in the painting pile yet sadly

Funny, for a while I considered to do a Brit officer head variant for him as I thought he'd work as such. Great minds, eh... ;)

Awesome! :-*

Since demand for these figures is practically non-existant at this point and I need to slim some of the range down, I thought I'd check if there is any interest before retiring them.
I may pass them on to someone else for re-release if there's any interest, but experience teaches you never know when a figure will be available again when rights have changed hands. ;)
-
I'm interested in a set.

I might be keen for three of the nuns if you have any left just need to wait for pay day.

Up to you, though they are £4 each or £15 for the set and I don't think shipping cost will be any different whether there are 3 or 4 in the package. ;)

I already have a set but I'd be down for some new ones!
