I've got a heap of Mongoose Dredd stuff that I need an excuse to paint!
Mr Saturday is up with another submission next Monday, Im looking forward to it
Mondays have suddenly become more enjoyable 8) 8) 8)
So Cheetor has shown us Mongoose sculpts, and Mr. Saturday has shown a Citadel sculpt. I know Cheetor has a good sized collection of Mongoose Judge Dredd.
Does this mean Mr. Saturday will be showing lots of old Citadel Dredd stuff in the future?
Currently banned from painting, (doctor's orders long story. ...)
Masdive dredd fan too
Is it Mondy yet? ;D
Aren't the judges normally almost one man armies?
Nice job, but that OSL is just showing off! ;D
Cheers folks. What do you prefer about Sov 2 Michka?
They have their flaws, these boys, heavy cleanup being one, but hey, Sovs.
Oh it's the pose to be sure.but hey, Sovs.
Sorry if I sounded harsh about the first Sov.
How do the foundry 2000ad stuff sacle up with mongooese and citadel stuff??
And what are the mongoose JD rules like?
Brilliant thread by the way, oh and have you built any megacity or cursearth terrain??
Really liking your terrain, and the painting of the miniatures is great, will be keeping an eye on this thread
Considering his brief tenure, Rico is one of my favourite Dredd characters.
I see the terrain is coming along very nicely too, liking the ugly clinic signage.
Nice job Paul! I think the model could've had a better face sculpt. It's especially lacking in the hair department if you ask me. This is the pic I think of when I think Rico, and I don't think it maps to the mini.
these robots will surely soon attract the attention of Mega City One's finest.
And I just noticed the Boing! ad :D :D :D
So cool. I used to dislike the aesthetic of the Judge Dredd robots but it's really growing on me now.
As a setting for miniature gaming, Judge Dredd is much more fun than I used to think it was.
I am really looking forward to our first dust up
You have done a great job on all of these miniatures :)
It is a shame that some of the miniatures themselves aren't better sculpted... but even the bad ones, you have polished very nicely :)
Batty is fantastic. I really love the looney nature of the Dredd universe.
Amazing as always!!!
Is he going to jump off the building with the stub gun firing? :D
That was nasty, but a classic.
One question though, those corpses around the feet of the dark judge chaps - Pray tell where those were bought from? :o
Really lovely stuff guys - it's great to see all the DDKS loot painted up! :-*
Sedition Wars corpse tokens - they are from a scenery and token upgrade pack that was released separately to the main game. I think the stuff in was quite good (regardless of the game it was for), and well worth snapping up if you see a set going cheap-ish anywhere.
Never thought that I would ever say this, but....'Love those kneepads!'
:-*
You say these are Foundry. How do they compare with the Mongoose/Warlord Dark Judges?
And extra points on including my absolute, all-time favorite panel of Judge Dredd.
I note that you've posted two in a row now, with the numbers jumping from 14 to 16... Is Mr Cheetor's figure #15 coming soon as well?
I take back any complaints about the sculpting on the Sovs, because the Senteniod is perfect.
Did it strike you as a digital sculpt during painting Mr S?
I take back any complaints about the sculpting on the Sovs, because the Senteniod is perfect. Fantastic painting and a really characterful base make that thing sing. The whole group looks so good together.
that is super nice work on a lovely figure. Played some JDMG myself yesterday. If you are looking to paint a new gang I would strongly suggest a demonic cabal. f**thing hilarious on the table.
I love this thread! I find myself looking through my Judge Dredd stuff a lot lately, and this is all your faults.
If fact I just picked up the Dark Judges set a week ago after seeing how nice yours look.
I might have picked up the Sov Judges instead
but I just had to have my own Judge Death
Until I saw them in this thread I didn't even know they made the spirit forms miniatures.
What a brilliant thread.
Love your terrain as well, any info on the various sources of your terrain pieces would be greatly appreciated for my own Dredd stuff.
Thanks, I found it quite difficult to photograph the flame, I must admit. The terrain is Cheetor's, he can fill you in on the particulars Duff!
The bases are from MicroArt Studios Infinity range, if I recall correctly. I use several ranges of urban bases for my Sci-Fi models, Dragonforge being another.
So are they like the riders of the apocalypse, but then in the Dredd universe?
(I know nothing about Dredd...and most things seem mighty silly for an outsider...just like Dr. Who :D :D)
Superb painting. The only thing putting me off getting the Dark Judges is because I know that, my painting skills being what they are, I won't be able to do them justice (so to speak ... )
As for looking comic book-like, well isn't that the point. They are from a comic book.
Whats the deal with the non-canon (AFAIK) moccasins I wonder?
Next week will almost certainly be the very first Citadel Judge Dredd model that I have ever painted. Im looking forward to it.
No idea. As the first miniature version of Judge Fear you think they'd have paid more attention, but no, comfy slip-ons it is.
As am I.
This thread continues to inspire me, and has me looking at Judge Dredd comics once again.
Sculptor couldn't do feet?
Brilliant!
I love that figure
So much so that I really fancy trying to sculpt something similar.... ;)
Haha! What a crackhead miniature! lol
And I dunno how I missed it earlier, but that is the best Judge Fire I have ever seen.
Thanks Andym, next up is judge Williams, block judge for Bruce Campbell Block.
Great paintings as always Cheetor.
He blends in very well too, a good choice.
8) 8)
Really cool! Never liked the Demonblade miniatures a lot...but your paintjob tells me that's due to the official paintjobs
And what's hanging out of his side? An ass and legs???? :D
Cracking stuff. Totally agree with working in some figures from other ranges. I picked up the Citadel Don Uggi gang on ebay recently (for about £3 in the blister)
and I was going to add some Reaper Bones apes for muscle. They'll also do as a mutant Supers gang.
Are you planning any civilians? Andym has a good thread running on that topic at the moment.
Such a great setting though, you can fit practically anything into it.
Quaid: ...
Brilliant stuff mate! Your stuff is sooo inspirational!
Have you cheched out Antenocities Workshop? They do some good future cars that'll fit right in.....especially with the security hover car you have. I got a couple last week and they're in the queue on my painting table just now......
I'd assumed a couple of those on Cheetor's table were Antenociti cars, especially the red one. :)
Love the droids, where are they from? Are they the Megaminis ones?
I subscribe to Stan Lees theories on naming characters: keep it easy to remember. Kuato would ave been a little too obvious (and I have difficulty remembering that name anyway) but Quaid? Quaid is something that I can remember.
That red one is from Scotia Grendel actually. Rather than list the various vehicle manufacturers in the phot above I will link to the blog post about the first batch of sci-fi traffic (https://sho3box.wordpress.com/2015/06/29/sci-fi-traffic/) that I put together. It has all the details if you want them.
A rather unflattering close up of what I am willing to tolerate as “terrain standard” painting.
Love the Demonblade mutant paint job. Have you done any of the Mongoose muties yet? I'd love to see how they stack up with the guys you've painted so far.
I had no idea there was a Roberto figure; "where's my stabbing knife?"
Wonderful, subtle colour scheme and I still love the way you highlight your figures.
Another great addition to the thread. Very simple yet elegant use of color here.
That robot looks like he never gets a day off.
And since I haven't mentioned it recently, the Mantic Deadzone terrain is just about perfect for Judge Dredd. I just love your terrain.
Nice addition. Not too complicated or elaborate, but damn effective. Great one.
Lawrod
The lawrod rifle was the standard rifle carried by all street judges in a holster on the side of their lawmaster bikes. It became obsolete and was replaced with the Widowmaker in 2114.
Widowmaker
The Widowmaker 2000 is a fully automatic shotgun used by street judges. It was introduced in 2114 to replace the obsolete lawrod rifle. It was introduced to the comic strip in the story "Judgement Day".
Where is that Judge Williams figure from, it's very nice? I don't see it in the Warlord or Foundry catalogue.
It's exclusive to the starter set I think. There is a female gang leader with a mohawk that is similarly limited.
Fantastic thread, great paint jobs and some all-round excellence :-*
I had a lot of fun painting up some Foundry Judges and SJS for my round 9 entry in last season`s LPL Season 9 and this whole thread sure takes me back and inspires me to tackle some more MC1 in the lead mountain. Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant, I love all these robots of yours, they are so full of character.
:-* :-*
When I saw Butlerbot my first thought was of the EotD clockwork one that may well work in MC-1 as well.
Im not sure what game would require three robot butlers, but Im 100% certain that I can come up with one :)
Downton Abbey 2216....Carson's Revenge!
:D
As a kid I always wanted the robot and alien Star Wars figures, not the humans. In many respects Im still that same. Im glad that you like them Mason.

I love everything about that figure, it is such a wacky combination of madness.
Looks great - I don't think the roughness shows except perhaps a little on the flesh when placed next to the others (and even then, I think that you wouldn't notice unless you were looking for it - he is a mutant afterall!)
I love all the mutants - I'd not seen any of the figures before and I'm pining for them now!
Must say I also love the basing color with the warm browns. What colors do you use for the sand?
It's not a kingpin hoover though. lol
Sci-fi militia figures like that have multiple uses too.
he looks in bad shape
Awwww boo! ;)
I was looking forward to more Dredd!
Ah well. Is Santa going to be good to your project guys?
I don't know if you've seen, but Antenocities are doing quite a cool wee robot street sweeper thing that I think will fit nicely. I'm going to try and get a couple. A Streetsweeper 9000 if you will.
I know that it's been a little while, but I'm really hoping you guys pick this up again.
Thanks for the vote of encouragement n815e :)
There isnt any plan to renew this project right now Im afraid.
That said, as Mr S and I are lifelong 2000AD fans and miniature painters and gamers, both of whom are sitting on heaps of suitable lead, its certainly a matter of "when" not "if".
I dont see it happening in the next twelve months though.
Thanks for your interest though :D
