Looking good! There's our dame!  

Good thing you finally posted them, I was getting awfully tempted to copy-paste your posting from the PA boards and stealing your thunder!  lol

EDIT: I'm wondering... is that a stockless Thompson? Or is the stock just well hidden behind the shape of the fellow?

Oh yeah Babee!!!  Colour  Me Happy!!

The woman looks a bit, zaftig?

& your point?

Certainly notta flapper, more 30s than 20s methinks, but Likee LOTS!!

& a fine job onna pocket revolver, instead of an oversized hand cannon.

EDIT: I'm wondering... is that a stockless Thompson? Or is the stock just well hidden behind the shape of the fellow?

Thompson is sans buttstock, he simply hasn't chosen to attach it, yet.
Makes it that much more concealable under his coat.

All commercial Thompsons had detachable buttstocks, military contract ones sometimes, the WWII production M1s & M1A1s, no.  Ditto modern "Auto Ordnance's" (& others') reproduction ones, the butt is, by law,  fixed.  WWII Tommy guns ala Combat's Sergeant Saunders also couldn't accept a drum magazine!!

I'm delighted a stick magazine (20 rounds) was chosen!!  Wish there were more of 'em in 28mm.
SO much easier to  handle, & manage, to say nothing of quieter to carry than a drum!

Best Pulp Alley release to date!!  Great work Dave, Mila & Andrew!!!

He HAS made some very high-quality weapons models so far. And he has to still have the digital files. Maybe Andrew Rea should consider selling a pulp weapons sprue!

The only major ones I haven't seen so far are a Colt 1911 (ubiquitous with the Americans) or a .455 Webley (ubiquitous with the British).

WOW, just Wow...
Now I have to get some time for painting!


....Maybe Andrew Rea should consider selling a pulp weapons sprue! ....

YES! Please!
More weapon sprues are needed!
Maybe a few pistols already in hands, cut at the wrist for easy conversions.  ;)

Awesome sculpts Dave and Andrew! Really nice and full with character once again. Also got some sneak peeks on the cards? ;)
