Black uniforms

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Yup, I have some.

Now this one was way back when (Salute 2021).
At Warfare I bought some more, you can see the contrast in quality of the printing:


No William Killian this time.

Thankyou for that. Added to wish list.

Just picked up police Range Rover today £8 from entertainer toys. Will post picture soon. Need to get another law person with cap, only got one, rest have helmets.

Painted offensive miniatures camera crew, however to finish them off I need to idiots that always appear in the background. Any suggestions.
Also any suggestions for tall thin mp wearing glasses. To represent a double barrelled surname current politician.

Update. Another toy for grandson. Vehicle to large when 28mm figure next to it.

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Well this Hasslefree figure is suitable for the background.

You are looking for something that's a cross between a public school boy and an undertaker presumably. I would look at either although finding a figure wearing an Eton tailcoat and top hat* is likely to be tricky. Someone did a range of public school boys for the VBCW IIRC and there are undertaker figures out there.

Then there's this: https://footsoreminiatures.co.uk/collections/inter-war-period-1918-1939/products/bank-manager. You'd have to fashion your own glasses. He at least has a double barrel shotgun as a visual clue to identifying his name.

Personally I'd just break out the putty, make a tall, thin poo emoji and whack a top hat on it.

* Yes, I know they don't wear top hats at Eton anymore but it remains the popular trope.

Edit: Woodbine Design did the public schoolboys. All armed and none looking particularly like the thin streak of shit I think you have in mind.

Looking for 28mm vendetta figure or figure with full van dyke beard.
Preferably without sword, need to put behind camera crew. Already ordered school girl giving rude gesture.

Cool fig,  But why do get the urge to change the position of his right pointer finger so it's clenched too......

[carlos marighela]

Cultural differences.

That said, the two finger salute is on the wane. I actually had to explain its meaning to my teens who had already firmly grasped the single finger version. I've warned them off the Brazilian inverted OK sign as a measure of disrespect as it will not only prove too obscure for any local audience but may be mistaken for some weird neo-Nazi shit.

I am surprised that there is no Guy Fawkes mask figures (or even just heads), but saying that there are no Salvador Dali mask heads either,

CP Models have one wearing a hoodie...unfortunately holding a blade but easily replaced.

I want to put my rioting figures on tarmac looking bases.
Instead of sand I’ve used chinchilla dust as a start.
Any suggestions on tarmac colour, looking out the window it’s definitely not black. Perhaps a good starting colours.
Any advice welcome.

Whilst asking anyone know the name of the green for U.K. ambulance crew uniforms. Hospital scrubs are hunter green but think that’s a lighter colour.

U.K. Paramedics colour is bottle green.

Grey black as a base followed by lighter grey dry brushes. I usually end up with silver grey or a little ivory as the last one. But essentially you can start with lighter greys depending on what you are trying to match.

[Capt Troy Tempest]

Thankyou.

What colour are people using for yellow high viz jackets and orange high viz overalls?

[Capt Troy Tempest]

Need help from all you knowledgeable people on this site.

In kitchen glueing sand to bases when phone rang. Came back to find figure base welded to kitchen work surface. Managed to free base, but now circle of set superglue on worktop.
How to I remove it without damaging surface if worktop.

Please help.

Spray with WD40 and set a hair dryer on it. Heat loosens the grip and the WD40 will help it slide off. Acetone (nail varnish remover) will do it, but could knacker your worktop. If that doesn't work, maybe just hot soapy water and a scouring sponge.
