Just vampires? No, she could be hunting just about anything. But anyhoo, this lady of fashion I call Isabella Cornetta is one of a small range of Gothic Horror stylie models that Annie at Bad Squiddo Games has bought from a veteran sculptor (Gary Morely) and now is scratching her head about, wondering when/how exactly to release them.

Lovely brushwork and lovely figure. :-*
She looks to be modelled on Kate Beckingsale from Van Helsing. I'd recognise the backside anywhere ;)

It's the photo I used as source material!
Her front view I mean.

I've seen these in the flesh and they're lovely sculpts, made better with your painty awesomeness.
What's your schedule like, I'll need some bits painting soon too?

Full as an egg. I'm probably booked until the end of summer at least. I guess I need to put my prices up again!
-
Awesome miniatures - I hope they are released soon.
Annie ran a fantastic KS campaign for her 'Ghosts of Gaia' range. I would have no hesitation in backing any future KS campaign from Bad Squiddo.
-
Okay, I "need" that figure. I'm in for a Kiskstarter!

Actually, I think this lass is a bit broader, but definitely healthy, as she'll need to be to face the forces of evil!
I'd like to see her in person, as well. I'd feel SO much safer. lol

Squee!
Thanks all. I have a whole range of this stuff, a mixture of male, female and monsters! It will definitely be a KS, later in the year I think, got so much on the plate - exciting stuff!
I saw Cubster the other day and piled a load more on him, so I guess I could add to the pressure and say "Hey I'll get it started when I have the rest painted", muahahaha.
I'd like to add a bit more to the range too. It was originally the Vampire Slayers Club, a range which was never released, I bought it a while back but haven't had the funds to put it into production, so I guess a KS is perfect! It's got a lot of Gary Morely - bizarrely being the big "lady minis" person, it was actually the male figures which caught my eye, fantastic. All classic gothic horror. Think I'll have to get Phil on some gribblies, and maybe shout Gary for a few more characters, so there is some freshness.

Well now you have got me interested. Can't wait to hear more. ;) ;D

Any pictures of the others somewhere?

Yeah, there's a few from that set, but not all. Plus I think a couple of models not shown there. I'm pleased to say that the one who looks like Peter Cushing's Van Helsing is included.

I saw her costume in Planet Hollywood,it's tiny ! But perfectly formed ;)
Interesting minis,the Van Helsing model looks great :)

It is the whole lot Mr Cubs, I just haven't given you them all to paint yet, muahaha....

Such a dear lady, no? Such a firm, friendly grip for a handshake. She has my complete confidence!

Oh wow! :o She'd make a great Warhammer Fantasy RPG witch hunter or bounty hunter type. Wants it. :D

She could even be used in a 40k feudal world.

Oh ...
just lie back and think of the money!

Lovely paintjob on the vampire huntress.
-
As one of the four or five backers of this project two years ago, I positively will buy these. Bring us a new kickstarter, Annie!
-
I look forward to seeing them released.
-Michael
-
Nice looking figures, except the Dwarves. Keep us updated as I'd certainly be interested in the KS. Perhaps the original failed because it was Indiegogo? IMHO KS is way better than Indiegogo with one caveat. The promoter needs to flood the forums with info and not rely on people stumbling across their campaign using the KS search engine which, for some obscure reason, seems to throw up campaigns long past rather than what is current.
-
I want that mini, now lol
Really nice paintjob as always.
-
HOT CHICK :D
-
I'm super chuffed with the feedback, thanks! I've been sat on these for a while (it's weird how you almost need a kickstarter to afford to do a kickstarter). Cubbin is painting em all up, and I'm thinking around September for the launch. I'm going to try a longer build up than I have for Ghosts of Gaia. I'll have some fresh sculpts too so it's not just a MK2, hoping to get Mr Morely as well as my regular dude Alan Marsh. Any suggestions?
-
I'm thinking the title of this thread may need a little ... amendment in the next couple of days.
-
Great to hear these are in the Bad Squiddo KS pipeline.
Another auto-back for me.

Mein Gott! It's the Drakul himself! We'll need a whole team of hunters if we're to stand a chance!
'Arch Fiend' Vampire - making crosses out of candlesticks or, God forbid, your poxy fingers ain't gonna help you with him! He's got you in his hypnotic gaze and you're a gonner ... unless you've got a mate who can blindside him while he's distracted.

Nil desperandum boyos, there's hope yet! Here come the forces of light to combat hell's minions.
'Professor of Occultism' Hunter - armed with a prodigious intellect, a lifetime of learning and a bag full of anti-vamp goodies (not to mention a wardrobe of stylish tweed), he's your best strategic asset when facing the undead.

But you know the Church isn't just going to let a bunch of amateurs take the lead with this Crusade.
'Vatican Operative' Hunter - whether you're taking on zombies, werewolves or vampires, a highly skilled agent armed with Holy Water and a kukri will always come in useful ... plus black leather and presumably plenty of talc (especially in hot weather).

He doesn't care if it's not strictly his fight just yet, he'll stick by his buddies and learn some valuable lessons to take back across the pond to combat the rise of nosferatu threatening the good ol' U.S. of A.
'Texan Adventurer' Hunter - a bowie knife hurts the dead as much as the living, and a Colt .45 is a very handy deterrent to deal with human and animal minions.

:o They really amazing figures! Just take my money now! :D
-
GREAT little figures, I want them all! :-*
The group is lacking two traditional female characters... Mina and Lucy anyone?
-
Funny you should mention it, Annie's looking for suggestions for additional characters to boost the range (specifically females). Obviously there's the literary 'Dracula' characters, but other Victorian subjects in the Gothic Horror line - beasties and humans - are being considered I think.
My own suggestion was the Chinese 'Vampire Slayer' as seen battling Spike in a Buffy flashback.
-
Great figures and beautiful work on them, Cubs!
-Michael
-
Great painting and some lovely figures. I will certainly be in on the KS.

Mina and Lucy - in both human and not so human forms...
Gorgeous female vampires, PLEASE! :-* Including, of course, Le Fanu's Carmilla, Countess Dolingen of Gratz (from Bram Stoker's "DRACULA'S GUEST") and the 3 Brides of Dracula!
EDIT> Inspired by Coppola's 1992 movie, DRACULA both in "GIANT BAT" and "WEREWOLF IN LOVE" forms! :D

Yes to all of these. Plus, if you're thinking of making a Chinese female vampire slayer like the one from Buffy can we also have not-versions of Angelus, Darla, Drusilla and Spike as they appeared in Victorian times.

Vampifan, that's a GREAT idea! We cannot ever have enough Victorian bloodsuckers ladies and gentlemen of the night! :D

Let's keep in mind that those great little minis can also be used for Dracula's America! ;)
WELL DONE, ANNIE! :D

YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D

Hey, just cos I agree, that doesn't make any difference. I just colour stuff in, Annie's the CEO of Baggy International Enterprises and does the hiring and firing. You'll need to persuade her ... I'm just on a level with the copy girl or the boy who makes the tea.

Baggy International Enterprises is PRICELESS!!! 8)
BTW: I like very much the colors of your tea! :D

Annie, if you're reading this, please note there is a lot of love for this project of yours and that there are still a lot of Angel and Buffy fans about. If you could see your way to getting a close likeness of the Fang Four (Angelus, Darla, Drusilla and Spike) sculpted, I'm sure you'd make a lot of people very happy. :D
Pretty please! :)

Awesome figures, love the professor the most reminds me of a certain actor...
-
Wow, these are ace. That is the best Dracula figure I've seen so far!
-

My fave by far (the tweed effect on the coat took ages to do, but I'm pleased how it turned out). I grew up watching 'Hammer House of Horror' as a kid and Peter Cushing was just too cool!
-
Wow, these are ace. That is the best Dracula figure I've seen so far!
He's good isn't he? Just got the right balance of melodrama and menace. No additional accoutrements needed ... just the swirling cape and classic evening dress.
-
Bloody awesome paintjobs :-*. Love that greenish coat on the not-Sherlock, absolutely perfect. And the trousers on the jank are also very, very good. Well done, mr. Cubs!!

Haha just caught up, Cubbin is an awesome PA.
My mind is scrambling about this, shall I do a Kickstarter, shall I release, when shall I do a KS.... etc etc.
I don't want to fall into the trap of Kickstartering everything, but from a purely business point of view, it seems the way to go. But I bloody love a good standard release. The sales of normal releases though compared to KS make it feel so dismal though, so I'm now hesitant. However I've just finished a big (big for me!) KS, and have a totally different one planned for the fall, so it's where to fit it in. Patience is not one of my qualities, I've had these figures for a while and I am just itching to get them released.
I've got masters of the whole set coming later in the week (the rest that I haven't sent to Cubbin yet) and I'll have a sit and stare at them for a bit and have a think.
If I release them as standard I think I'll do an "Anniestarter" while you're all hot for them. A pre order with something special thrown in perhaps, nothing fancy and use some of the leftover funds from the last KS to get them in production moulds. Sounds like I've already convinced myself.
You have to promise to buy them though! *folds arms*
-
Also THANKS for your kind words! I am pumped up that YOU are pumped up!
-
You have to promise to buy them though! *folds arms*
DONE! (with open arms and a big smile) :D

Annie, having just backed your last Kickstarter and being super excited by the prospect of this new one, I'm definitely in as well. 8)

I will spring for a set, no hesitation. Maybe two.

Faced with an organised team of hunters, the vamps have taken to fraternising with dark scientists to manipulate their unnatural creations.
Bride of the Monster - rarely do you find a couple on their wedding day who were literally made for each other. She's fully prepared to lose her heart to her beau, since she's brought a spare. Just remember, if you are an uninvited guest at the union (especially a rowdy peasant type), try to stick to the gift list because unwanted farming implements are liable to be swiftly returned to you ... with great and extreme prejudice.

The crusade against darkness crosses all borders, from West to East. European hunters are swiftly learning their international brethren are also dedicated to the cause.
'Shinto Paladin' Hunter - she's five foot nothing of whirling steel, martial honour and thrice-blessed jade. Hell's servants better stay out of her way, unless they want to lose face ... along with the rest of the head.

Cheers!
I'll be doing some sort of pre order...thing... soon.
Anyone who's been following my social media accounts will already know - but one of my rescued guinea pigs has been super ill the last few weeks, and she's driven me pretty crazy! A MASSIVE vets bill which keeps going up (nearly at a grand now!) as well as round the clock care. She had a couple of operations and has been hand fed for... I don't even know anymore. Four weeks I think I have been hand feeding her day and night, every two hours. I have had very little actual sleep, so that combined with work pressure I am a bit of a wreck!
I'm sodding off to Sweden on the 27th for a week where I want nothing to do with work or guinea pigs (my partner is going to take over the care while I am away if she still needs it then). My funds are getting pretty dire so the plan is to do a small Anniestarter for these, which will run while I am away, and I will deal with it and the shipping when I am back, around a week later. That means I have money coming in! Also the caster and mouldmaker is already having his wicked way with them so that is one task out of my hands, yay.
"Too long didn't read" version without life story - VAMPIRES AND VAMPIRE HUNTERS SOON!

If we are tossing ideas out still. I would say a few female American Indian braves or a Wise women or two would be cool. And how about and American Native's who have been turned into one of the dreaded undead blood sucking vampires themselves?

I figured since they played a part, then they should at least to the option to play all sides. Not to get historical, but often times the military would use turned members of different tribes to when the wars. Seems totally reasonable that the forced of undeath would use turned braves to.

I'm not adding extra figures at the moment due to budget but they are great ideas! I will be adding more next year :D

Well, that was an easy decision - pledge upped to include the two rather swish looking stretch goals.

The dartfrog is also an unseengiraffe, so another LAF strikes :D

Wish I had the cash to go in, my entire funds for this month and next month's gaming stuff just ended up being shifted due to the dog now requiring surgery and having massive issues...

Good luck with your doggo! I've been back and forth to the vets a a lot recently myself with my little sick guinea pig, so all the understandings!
We're past £9000.....woah!
-
Add another LAFer who's onboard. Great stuff and great timing: I'm working up a graveyard scenario for the Pulp Alley Horror rules and these minis will fit it quite nicely. :D
-
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!
-
My threads on other forums have tumbleweeds and spiders making webs on them, Go LAF!
Made some old school "printed off" leaflets to put in everyones pockets at Partizan on Sunday, if you are there, please come over! You can see the goodies in the flesh, some painted, some inked, and some raw metal.

My minis safely made their way across the Atlantic and into my post office box today. Wonderful, wonderful stuff Annie. Just the ticket! :D
-
My pledge appeared in Glasgow this morning delighted.
-
Got my stuff all safe and sound this morning. Great figures, thank Annie.
-
still waiting , i hate the British and French Postal services ... sometimes, delivery in 2 days, sometimes "a bit" longer delay ... ( and from UK to FR and FR to UK >:( ) ...
-
My package got to safely to Canada. Lovely looking figures BTW. Thanks
-
Received them yesterday. Superb! :)

got mine today ... f***ing nice models

Mine arrived today - magnificent miniatures. Really top notch.

They came today. And they really are mighty nice figures.

This one isn't a Bad Squiddo model, he's a new release for Great Escape Games' 'Curse of Dead Man's Hand'. Known only as 'The Count' he's both a swanky dresser and a guaranteed lady killer.

Although he doesn't look too scary, I think he looks like he's dancing. lol

BTW: great brushwork as usual! :-*

Very nice, Cubs!
-
Beautiful painting on this one!
But i can't find the mini on great escape games' site. Is it part of a posse or of a deal?
Thanks!
-
When asked 'When is he going to be released?' the answer from GEG was 'Later this year'. I'm afraid that's all I knows sir, that's all I gots, see?
-
Well better than nothing. Thanks Sir.

Excellent paintjob, but why's he carrying a tap? ;)

I just placed an order for the vampire hunters and the brides. Such iconic models. I can't wait to paint them :D .

Ay thang yo

Don't forget to share those babies when painted.
-
I finished up the brides earlier today. I feel I let the models down in this case. My colour choices could have been better. If I did it over again I would have understated the contrasts in the robe and stayed with a blue to white tone for the flesh.
-
I can't find any fault with your three brides. I think you've done a cracking good job on them! Lovely stuff, HP! 8)
-
I like 'em!
-
LOVELY brides, CONGRATULATIONS! :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
Nice work, HP.
:-*
They should double up nicely as Witches for Strange Aeons too.
Having three makes a Coven, right?
:D
-
Thanks to everyone for the kind words on brides. They would work for a coven for sure. There is a lot of significance to threes of mythical women. The fates, furies/gorgons, witches. I figured the Hammer brides were an illusion to these ancestral mothers. I was shooting for a Roman classical feel and the flesh is as much showing the sting of decay as the leathery hides of older monsters.
-
I finished up my first hunter. I tried to paint him as Peter Cushing appeared in Dracula.
-
Nice, the fur collar has come out particularly well.
-
Nice brushwork! :-*
Looks very like a nice LAF fellow to me! lol

indeed! :-*
BUT... the right hand could be set in a slightly different angle IMHO, to align the weight of the mallet to the bones of the forearm in a more anatomically-correct way... (in this case, simply twisting the mallet's head a bit will do). ;)
AND, again IMHO, this splendid series of miniatures could be even better with more female hunters... and female vampires as well! ;D
-
Where are the female vampires from?
-
They're all Bad Squiddo.
-
Awesome, didn't realise they did them too! On the to buy list!

The Vampire and his Brides in a very nice adventure here:

Dracula arrived the other day and I couldn't put him down. The figure himself is pretty much done apart from sealing and a little gore but the base is still rough. I had so much fun with him I wanted to share right away.
-
Lovely brushwork.
He looks great!
:-* :-*

Thanks for the kind words (on all the models I've posted on the thread so far). Really awesome range of figures. Next time I place an order I want to pick up Sandor and maybe Edward. It's hard to say though visiting BS has the potential to eat more of my hobby budget if I'm not careful (I just saw the Deraj figures who would make fine Cossacks or Carpathians and I will need more of the Soviets to bolster my Bolt Action forces :D . I still have to finish up my remaining hunters which reminds me I'd like Clara and Margaret. Stop making nice stuff :P . Sandor is the closest I've been able to find to Oliver Reed as the wolf man; Everybody else make them with super long snouts.
-
Very nice work!
Seems this entire sub board has become Dracula's America... whatever that is!
-
Great to see them painted, look amazing! Especially Dracula. Or as he is referred to in the office "Dracuuuuuuuuuuul"

Annie, IMHO the only setback if this collection is the lack of MORE female vampire hunter figures! ;)

Hehe, they are coming. Hopefully later on in the year, got Gary Morley on board for more :D And roped in my usual sculptor Alan to add some Alanness in there too!

And it better be a LOT of lady huntresses, because since the overgrown of the fiends population in the Enchanted Forest this season, I totally NEED them! (as the locals use to say: "Pest control is a bloody business!" ) :D
And take you time, Vampifan, because you soon will have some of these exotic bloodsucking fiends in your hands... ;)
-
I thank you, my friend. Fortunately my middle name is "patient" so I'm happy to wait - after all, good things come to he who waits! ;)

I shall await this development with bated breath... ;D
Did a Halloween Dracula scenario for with Pulp Alley at a Midwestern convention in October, and it was well received and a lot of fun. A large amount of the kudos go to your Kickstarter figures, Annie:
(http://wrgmr.com/Page_1s.jpg)
The rest of this AAR can be found over in the PULP section:
http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=105465.0
I'd like to make this kind of thing an annual event at this convention, so I will be needing those new minis you're developing painted and mounted by October 2018, Annie!
I feel obligated to explain that the Count's name is a (feeble) attempt at humor, as here in the USA we have a popular breakfast cereal called Count Chocula:

Sorry to hear this, gents. Haven't had those problems here in the States, even with the sizable amount of minis and such I've ordered from the UK (my pair of purchases from Annie are a case in point: really superb service from across the pond).
-
Annie, just to let you know: it seem that EVERYTIME we talk about your Vampire Hunters here and tell where to find them, some LAFer shortly says: "Already ordered!" and then later: "Great figures!" :D
So, CONGRATULATIONS for a work extremely well done and bring on the next batch of Vampire Hunters and their foes! ;)

I must concur.
My dealings with Bad Squiddo have been nothing other than pleasant and professional. The products are top-notch and the service is spectacular.
I have no hesitation in recommending them to friends and acquaintances.
-
Just heard that you intend to expand the range and have Gary Morley onboard :D . Happy to to see this one grow a bit more; It was my only criticism of the range :D . I was worried my European vampire plans might have gone to fallow. While DA is cool I still dream about a Hammer styled Old World.

It would be just PERFECT!!! ;)

I think I'm correct in saying he sculpted most of the originals for this set as a project for himself, but it never really got off the ground. Annie bought the models because they were too good to let go and the rest is history.
-
I promised I would update you when there were more additions, which there are! I won't put too much here as it has it's own thread, but this will give you the notification, and show off Cub's glorious paint work again!
http://kck.st/3TxGT0J
If you missed the first lot from this thread, they're in the add ons, as well as mini bundles of them too, and everything we've released in between.
Cheers all!
