Alpha forge did have some cracking mutant types too if I remember not sure who has them now Mega minis have closed their doors.

Heresy Slicks may also work as gangers too

These might be worth a look, the trench coated enforcer in the Corporate Wars range would fit nicely in a Brit-Cit setting.

Just remember these are a little bigger than 28mm. Nice but a bit big.

Thanks Team, i'll check out all leads.

Cheers Scurv - wise words. Great call on the Muties.

Thinking about it, i might use the Styx Brother figure  as the LW Judge late in the day.

Dr F - impressed with the SV Family - wish i hadn't done a close up though, especially on Ma!!  lol

Have just commandeered my partner's plastic cotton-bud plastic box. Thinking it had potential as a Rad-Tent/Hut or something similar  ;)

Been given an option on some Necromunda buildings to add to the fun pile ...

Blast yer eyes Gentlemen!!  lol

I have been busy, albeit not particularly on the painting front (Foundry figs are based and under coated). I have bought and await delivery of:

1. Necromunda scenery incl bulkheads and ground templates
2. 10 x Painted Chaos Cultists
3. 10 x GZG Nuns with Guns (incl Bike/Pillion)

I was looking at Necromunda Redemptionists but they are going for silly money.

This is coming on quite nicely  :D

Certainly a bit on the short side (25mm) v Foundry but i thought, what the hell. They are lovely figures and can square off against the Cultists  ;)

Its probably worth noting that the Deadzone plastic terrain is based on a 3 x 3" pattern, just like the Necromunda bulkheads.  It should be quite easy to integrate the two if you wanted to.  The Deadzone stuff has more of a Mega City One look than the Necromunda stuff, "futuristic" sci-fi rather than MOAR SKULLZ  lol

I use both.

I didnt know that the Platformer stuff was used with Urban War.  Whats your gripe with it Dr F?  Is it an styling issue or a mechanical one?

The Deadzone sets clip together using a different mechanism to that used by the Platformer stuff, but it amounts to the same thing.  The stylings are less industrial, a distinct absence of rivets and arches.

Thank you Gentlemen,

I'll see what terrain i'm short of ( a friend is also donating some Necromunda buildings) and take it from there.

At least i can now put out a MC1 game as well as the Cursed Earth  :)

Yup, i do like the DeadZone buildings although i've resisted so far; i'm waiting for the Necromunda terrain to arrive and will take it from there.

I have also bought the WL Dredd on a Lawmaster - i think that that might be it for figures on this project, for the moment. Or at least until i paint up what i have,  ;)

Curses!! I'm out of W&N Nut Brown ink. Nevertheless, Dredd, Gronk, Styx & Junior are painted pending inking/highlighting. I may have to bite the bullet and get some GW Sepia.

I'll post some photos of what i've done so far at the wkd.

As stand ins for the redemptionists I'd have a look around for cultists that can be converted or used as they are.
