Title: Looking for female scientist
Post by: wolfen on 24 July 2014, 06:59:15 AM
Can anyone recommend a suitable female scientist model similar to this one from Mr Murch?

I need someone to complete my pulp style Avengers team. This one is perfect for my needs but I don't need the rest of the pack. Also, I like to order at least 6 packs from Bob when I get stuff from him and am not at that point yet.

Alternatively, if anyone has the above figure and is willing to part with her individually then please let me know. I am in the US.

Thanks in advance!

Just let me tell that if you base your expectations on that picture, there's a slight risk of disappointment.

Anyway...Brigade. Curiously, they're all called "Jessica".

All true and well ... BUT where is the skilled sculptor who gives us a miniature like the lady in the picture? lol

Caution on ordering via BCB... They have not been responsive to orders or inquiries for many months now...

There's a thread in the bazaar/commercial that describes the situation...

I really like Dr. Borghesan from Harwood Hobbies http://www.harwoodhobbies.com/  (http://www.harwoodhobbies.com/)

The coffee cup/tea mug concept works nicely.

The Good Doctor also poses with her pistol  & pumps as well

I think the shoe carrying concept, & execution, is brilliant!!  Such a natural touch.
 
The 3rd variant is zombeefied, no less well done, simply unappealing to me personally.

Wally has a weird work schedule away from home, but when he's in town is a fast shipper with good commo & great product.  Lotsa Pulpy Goodness available from him!!

The Harwood sculpts themselves are all crisp, clean, well detailed, distinctively original, & loaded with character.  I like 'em a lot, wish Wally would give us more Pulpy People...

No connection with these products at all, other than a satisfied repeat customer.

Valerik

why is buying these damn things easier than painting them?

Here's my take on the Reaper Chronoscope Doc.

Mila,

To answer your question from TMP, Prof Weiss is Reaper's Chronoscope Prof Laura;
(http://www.reapermini.com/graphics/gallery/4/50052_w_1.jpg)
She got a new right hand holding a Luger from Victory Force. The VF Luger is the best out there. Trust me I know  ;).
I also gently twisted her head to face to the right like she is aiming.
