Brilliant, brilliant work!

I think you need 3 doughty sergeants in the Queen's service to sort out those Thuggee. XD

I was already thinking of getting some of these lovely Iron Duke miniatures and making a nice scenario!

Superb Alex.I love that two faced (or is it three faced) statue in the background...
You must have trawled the aquarium shops of Germany to collect all those wonderful pulp-era statues and artefacts  :)

Prof's Travels (upd. 29/05 - Jungle Hideaway)
« Reply #23 on: 29 May 2015, 04:19:35 PM »
Just some further Pulp adventurers today, from another Lead Painters League entry. Only five of the figures are newly painted, the rest has been painted on several occasions in the recent years. But I had much fun putting together a classical adventurous scene for this one.



If you’ll find some little white spots on the miniatures in the shots below , so you have to know it’s not a light effect or my new painting style but the rest of the matt varnish, I didn’t found reparing them. Yes, I had a varnish accident again. I think I’m going to stop varnishing in the future, as my figures are mainly for display purposes. All that matt varnish thing is going to be too nerve-racking for my taste :-(

This special one is of course my favorit, an amazing interpretaton of Corto Maltese Rasputin, made by Mark Copplestone himself:



Corto Maltese (Foundry), also made by Copplestone,  may not fail in this scene too:



The famous Casablanca Rick (Artizan Designs). He most suffered from varnish attack..



A guy from the secret police (Blotsky, by Pulp Figures):



A britisch advisor, Georges, made by Artizan again:



And finally  a family portrait!

Each of your set-ups really has a pulpy feel. While I think my favourite may be the Melanesian set you started with (Tikis and Oceanic anything are a real passion), they all look absolutely superb. I may have missed this earlier in the thread, but do you game with them, and if so, what rules do you use?

Todd, the chap in the cauldron is indeed from Westwind. I believe he is in the witches pack from the Gothic Horror line.

Nowadays I rarely do any gaming, only a few times in year. So they also are for my vitrines, I'm afraid.
