Underwater Tabletop, anyone?

[Drachenklinge]

oooh! You're right about these! Have seen them before, too. It seems all the things needed for such a tabletop* system is already "out there"

Tobsens things I have seen a few times at the tactica, if I remember the guy correctly, great stuff!

*table-sub? sub-table-system? ... uhmmmm...

I don't think I saw our deep diving suit mentioned. We finally (FINALLY!!!) got in new stock. Had to switch over to metal to do it though.




I'm also working on some soft suits to go with it and some separate helmets/backpacks/weapons and such. With me doing the sculpting it might take awhile though. Oh, and some 15mm versions of the hard suit should be coming in a month or two.

Recreational Conflict also carries Tiger Miniatures which has three packs of four deep divers each.

actually I did linked the threads where I have seen the minis, somewhere above (or someone else does, 'not completely sure for the moment) - but anyway! The need to be posted "doubly"! ^^

I am sure, sooner or later I will get seom of these!

My take on Tobsen's spherical sub:






It would have fit quite nicely into that VFS underwater table, I think!

Really must work it into a scenario sometime soon, I've owned the sub for a couple of years now and it's never appeared on the table!

[Drachenklinge]

well, since it is on a grating already, it is waiting for its shippment, anyway! Just scratch-build a ship - that cannot be too difficult, now can it?

by the way
since I have time, I am really browsing through ALL the thread pages, looking for some more hidden treasures. 'N I found - amoung others! - this link to some "ancient life" citizen

I think the would make some good "sunken atlantis" tabletop-area-mission-scenario

While thinking about it ... maybe this could be the start to the campaign! Some deep-sea-expedition goes wrong (terrible wrong I migzht add and due to some sabotage I like to add!) and the whole ship went done at a rocky part of the ocean, some 5 miles deep  underwater canyons ... all were drowned ... or so it is believed! But when they wake up, there were rescued by ... anciant Atlanticians!

maybe that is more pulp ... I am not sure here ^^

PS
oooooh ... I love it already ... but I have so many other "unfinished business" - maybe we should build a jagged alliance ^^

Have a look at the 'Clash of the Aquanauts' sticky at the top if the page. All the stuff your talking about is already underway for this years BLAM!

would you mind checking the link? somehow I am ending up with some thomas cool hotel booking page (so now, I know, that the "La Défense" hotel is 15 minutes from Paris city center ... a bit un-pulpy ^^)

I was wondering why nobody mentioned Reaper's Dark Maiden:

[Drachenklinge]

maybe a little bit too moch ghostly-fantasy-like, but ... I do have this mini, anyway. Always want it to paint in a wooden texture, but did not dare to start so far.

Sorry! The link is now changed.

'Think, the crab was already listed ... but not both (one, not both) of these fish-like subs! Thanks!

Hell, I am sure there are even more tresures hidden in here!

Four A Miniatures makes a great creature from the Black Lagoon in 28mm that I have about to be painted. 
Speaking of Crabs Recreational Conflict/Lead Bones makes a giant crab, with multiple claw sizes, for 28mm gaming.

Thanks very much for the work you have put in to get all of this great info into one post.I really like being able to pull up the pics fast....
It has inspired me to start work on some deep sea divers of my own........Who will, by the way, be wearing deep sea diving gloves.......why on earth some of these other designers have failed to give their guys such protective gear is strange.
What about their poor frozen little pinkies?......its cold down there guys! I suggest people either paint the hands as leather for gloves or Blue
