Title: The Earl of Lonsdale and his Reckless Fops
Post by: matiec on May 28, 2015, 12:44:07 PM

I have been side tracked recently from my other projects into IHMN. I had quite a few figures already painted for other projects but have created three companies so far, the above Earl of Lonsdale with his fops, Justice Blackborough and the Botchergate Ruffians and most recently a Cumberland and Westmorland Constabulary company. We have had two adventures so far I'll post some pictures here .....if you are interested pop over to my Blog for more details etc.....

The first adventure saw the Earl and Justice Blackborough fighting it out for the plans to a new secret weapon.

Our second encounter had the same two protagonists on the outskirts of Carlisle seeking to reclaim some stolen papers, the new arc weapon in tow.....

If you look carefully ........ one catering tin of beans, cardboard cereal packet and some funny mess from the local hobby shop. The rivets I made by poking the card with a ballpoint pen. Black paint and then some cheap copper paint. There is a nicer one on the blog made from a plastic bottle. Thanks for looking  :)
