Pulp Reporters
« on: March 28, 2011, 01:55:50 PM »
Now that they can rest from their labors in round 2 of the current LPL contest, I thought that people might like to see some individual shots of my Pulp Figures Reporters:

Group Shot:




Editor:






Girl Reporter:



It is interesting to note that while the Girl Reporter is very obviously posed to be holding a cigarette (the painted example on the Pulp Figures website is holding one), she doesn't come with one and you have to add your own wire cigarette to the back of her hand.




Photographer:




Investigative Journalist:






Paper Boy:




Closeup of Newspaper:

Excellent.  :)

Love those figures and have painted most of them.  (Though the "Editor" was converted into a gunman.   ::) )

Love all your stuff, but I especially love these, probably because I work at a newspaper.
And I agree - the sweater on the paperboy is great!

I work at a newspaper.

A newspaper?! Do they still make those...?  :o

Are you in fact an evil cartoonist for your newspaper?

Yep, newspapers still exist, at least those that evolve with the times.
I'm, in fact, a political cartoonist; and yes, that's where I get the name "evilcartoonist."  :)

Pulp Figure's Gangland Justice line, specifically PGJ-9 Newshounds. The Gangland Justice line is becoming a bit of a catch-all for a bunch of cool figures only peripherally related to gangsters, like the Upper-Crust Swells, the Surly Servant and (to a lesser extent) the Newshounds.

I've painted the same figures; now i need to go back and touch them up! The newspaper waved by my newsboy must say Extra! upon it too!

Thank you, now if only I could find "Kolchak" by himself  :?

Didn't Rattrap do a couple of pulp era news types? I remember the lady with the camera, but I see no mention of them on their site.

Sounds like you mean Bridget O'Rourke. You can find her on the Brigade Games website (I believe that they are handling the rattrap line of figures exclusively going forward):
