 (shame I limited my options on those Q-Buildings by covering them in graffiti!  lol).
...

Some look clean enough to slap up against the wall over the tagings as if installed without anyone bothering to repaint first.  :D

Okay, in another conga line of blithering admiration. AND you play, which has been lacking for me for awhile.

Thanks all, it’s really great encouragement!

  lol I like the sound of that! I’m most thoroughly unworthy, thanks. I should also say that by playing two games last year I doubled my annual average.  :'(

@uti long smile - Yes, thanks. I thought the vertical mounted generator looked great too on that fab building you made a little while ago for Colony 87.

Hi all,

Civilian boy from Crooked Dice Colony 87. I’ve used him as a ‘person of interest’ in my last 5PfH game.

Tried to get some proper Oldhammer credentials by having a go at checks for the first time.  ;)

Cheers,
Raedwald

Yes, I wanted to leave some dark rims around the eyes, but hadn’t planned for him to look quite so creepy.  lol

Next up, after many real life delays, are a pair of pilots, also from Crooked Dice Colony 87. I’ve wanted to paint these for some time, even though they’ll only be set dressing in-game.

Had thought to do a Stars Wars orange and white scheme until seeing @Scarper’s version of the female pilot in more authentic jumpsuit colours. After collecting images of khaki and olive green jumpsuits I was won over by a sci fi pilot image in white. So not quite to the plan, but I hope it still works.

Cheers,
Raedwald

Yeah, I like those a lot! The colour palette works quite well. The critter the hefty pilot is carrying looks like it has an attitude. Not at all sure that I would want one wandering around in the cockpit.

What if the 'critter' is the pilot & the 'pilot' is the pet?  :o

I hadn’t considered that the fuzzy little blighter might be the pilot and the big guy a biological mobility and maintenance system. It makes sense, though - our household cat is convinced she’s the owner and we’re staff!

 lol All sounds very familiar actually. Mrs Raedwald often uses the Turtles analogy; whereby she is Krang (i.e. the brains of the operation) and I’m Krang’s body!
