St Trinians anybody?
« on: 29 July 2013, 10:56:25 PM »
Does any manufacturer make St Trinians type uniformed schoolgirls with hockey sticks (or pre-WW1 type firearms)?

Crooked Dice make this fine young lady, but are there any others out there?



And before anyone asks, yes this is for a VSF project  :o :o :o

Hammers did a very cool Trinian's entry in the LPL a couple years ago:

Any news on exactly when this will be and what the offering will look like? I'm just wondering if I have a chance of buying and finishing them in time for early November  ;)

Thanks, I was trying to remember where I'd seen these :)

EDIT : Unfortunately a bit too animated and Manga-faced for what I'm after :( ... However, the armed ones might be possible conversions in future :)

Those are fantastic! Any idea which miniatures were used, or if they are conversions?

I think the teacher is Reaper, many of the others appear to be Hasslefree. I'm guessing most of the figures are conversions with the hats, rifles, etc. You could ask Hammers, it doesn't look like the individual figures were expounded upon in that thread.

Yep we'll have two Sixth Formers to go along side Misty and two feral Fourth Formers too. She'll be accommpanied by a female baseball-bat weilding, bomber jacketed fighting 'ace' who should also fit in with them - but may a bit too modern for VBCW.

Due for a 01 November release.
