I've been talking about it for long enough...

[Hawkeye]

Brilliant idea! And the minis are beautifully painted.

Great job all round - but you have to PLAY this. You can't just do them to look at (nice as they are to look at, and all).

Surely there must be a game system that will work for this idea. It's fantastic!

[Mac Finn]

Well Done Jolly Bob 

Very cool and most of all impressive!!


Who makes your System Lord model ??

[JollyBob]

BTW - who makes the gate?

Phoenix Designs, available through Cold War Miniatures in the UK for the time being, but about to go OOP apparently. And it ain't cheap, either, although it is solid metal and large enough to comfortably fit the Minerva through, including flagpole.

He's a Heresy Miniatures Dark Lord. 

Thanks again for all your comments, but the fact is I don't have anyone to play against and much prefer painting anyway. The main reason I do anything is just to see if I can, to be honest.

I dunno though, Bullshott, if anyone is interested I can fetch them to this year's BLAM and let folks play with them. If you were thinking of having another VSF game, I'm sure they'd fit in somewhere.

Awesome stuff JB, well worth the wait. Now your journey to the dark side is complete too.....

Keep up the good work, now you have started it would be rude not to continue.....

Cheers boss.

I'm sure we can scrape up a fair bit between us, I have a few bits myself that would surely work.

And as for continuing, well, we'll see. There are a few more bits I'd like to do, but I'm thinking of a superhero project next...

What about a masked bandit in old Mexico?

[gamer Mac]

WOW
Great stuff.
Love the whole idea of this as a game.
You have totally turned to the dark side.
I can?t believe you are not going to play with them.

[answer_is_42]

Like most of my stuff mate, its just for lookin' at.

 
There should be laws against things like that!

[JollyBob]

Well, for them that's interested, I managed to take some closer shots of some of the figs. Hope you like them.

First up is the SG team:

 



 



 




Then some individual shots of the Jaffa'a as you can't really make them out in the group photo:






And finally a scale pic for Bullshott since he was asking about the gate:

[matakishi]

That's fantastic work JollyBob 

[Mad Carew Snr]

Stunning 

[twrchtrwyth]

Thats fantastic, well done.

[gamer Mac]

 
Why are these not in the LPL?
Winning entries if they were.

[Plynkes]

Because he'd never get those Martini-Henrys past the Scrutineering Committee. Royal Navy adopted Lee-Metfords in 1892. Even toddlers know that.

(Just kidding!  )

Bravo. Wonderful stuff. Truly stylish. Some figures in there I don't know. I really like the 1890s James Spader type and the lady with the sword. Where do they come from?

[Mr.J]

Just saw the close ups, and I thought I couldn't be more impressed... How wrong was I!
I still can't believe you don't game with them though!
