Greetings Folks, I had a previous post on the Pulp page: http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=46310.0 which has the evil agents of BORIS but then I discovered this page which is far more appropriate.

These are my new agents. I sculpted them with the aim of selling them but that plan failed as they didn't generate any interest. I didn't want to get them cast myself so I just decided to paint up the greens. At least I now have a unique set of figures.

Anyway, here is my new program for 7TV - the Omega Squad - Nemesis of the evil B.O.R.I.S.

Dorian Alpha is the trailblazing leader of Omega Squad; a small team of elite agents operating under the umbrella of the Surreptitious and Hazardous Assignments Group (SHAG) a Top Secret organisation of Her Majesties’ Government. Omega Squad specialise in covert operations, rooting out the enemies of peace and free love and sabotaging their cunning schemes. Using his natural style, charisma and panache Dorian Alpha has infiltrated and foiled countless iniquitous opponents and brought their machiavellian plans to naught.

Alpha's co-stars are:
Blake -Dorian Alpha’s chauffer and right hand man. A former guardsman, and expert rally driver, he has used his various skills to save the day on more than one occasion.

Amelia Horne: Miss Horne is Omega Squad’s resident head knocker. She is a martial artist of outstanding skill with a penchant of turning up at the right place at the right time whilst leaving her squad wondering just how she got there.

Nice work!

I cant help thinking that someone will be kicking themselves for not buying the greens. They are nice sculpts.

Great narrative and perfect for 7TV. Nice use of a very Austin Powers acronym!
I particularly like the Sterling armed chauffeur.

Thanks for the kind replies. I've been eager to play some 7TV but I've had to order figures from over seas (I'm in Melbourne). I started receiving my orders last week and then the painting started...

Thanks for that. I was told by a friend (in the figure manufacturing industry) that nobody would understand that the smg was a Stirling.

Sweet!

I forgot that you are not only a talented terrain builder, miniature painter, and card designer, you also sculpt minis!

I love the acronyms and the chauffeur. Well done look forward to seeing more.

Not here... off the top of my head I can think of several LAF members who will have actually used one... or its cousin, the F1.

Good job on the figures! Shame they weren't snapped up!

I've also been painting up some other chaps so here are some pics.

And another program in the works. An all girl rock band which is a front for their true "Psychedelic Ninja" crime fighting activities. However, I think the middle one might need a head replacement (or a bag).

Don't be so hard on the poor girl.

She's obviously the drummer...

Yours truly,

Who told you that? Classic SMG in my eyes! I think I had half a dozen with my Action man figures many many years ago. They are very nicely done mini. I like the Chauffer. Nice work on the KGB as well really good figures those Copplestone.

I can't recommend the Crooked dice figures enough either very good quality figures
