More and more awesome. Engaging work and battle report!

#11 Judge Shaw




With gaming against Mr Saturdays invading East Meg One forces being a thing now, I decided to paint a Judge equipped with one of the iconic weapons used in "The Apocalypse War" storyline, the stub gun.



I rushed the painting a little bit due to other commitments.  It bugs me a little, but its adequate.



Details in the blog post.

Very nice.
Is he going to jump off the building with the stub gun firing? 
That was nasty, but a classic.

Definitely a classic Dredd moment.   My younger self was disappointed when I read the Apocalypse War because it was a guerilla engagement rather than a face to face battle (I wanted something 40k-esque, or maybe like the Battle of Hoth) but a recent re-read stood up better than I expected.  Its still silly boys comics from the early eighties in places of course, but it was a lot more enjoyable than I remembered it to be.

Mr Saturdays work on his East Meg forces has increased my fondness of that era a bit more too.

Missed the new addition, mate.
Love those extreme highlights.
 

Great shot of him peeping out of that window too.

I do like that stub gunner, you can't get much more Apocalypse War than that.



This week I'm throwing up a cheeky submission for Judgement Day. The very tiny Sov satellat. This was originally intended to be an addition to a larger submission, but there you go. I could bore you with various excuses about life annihilating hobby time over the last week or two... so that's pretty much what I'll do.

Taking excuses as read, let's look at the wee satellat. The satellat is most associated with agent Orlock, East Meg One's finest assassin/saboteur/master of espionage, and instigator of the block mania outbreak that preceded the Apocalypse War. This little robot has gotten Orlock out of a couple of scrapes over the years, with a loud BLLLLEEEEEEEE! to warn out approaching danger.



This little fella has already seen action on the tabletop, causing much irritation to Cheetor's Judges in our initial skirmish. Speaking of which, the Sovs are now at league strength. Here's a shot of the whole squad.



There are several more members of the league to be added yet, but it's pretty satisfying getting them to a gaming size force. More (and most likely more than a tiny robot head) Judge Dredd fun from Cheetor next week.

Cheeky!!!
 

(Gotta admire that. Nothing wrong with a little cheek  ).

That group shot is great.
That look like a force to contend with.
 

[Mr Saturday]

It's very naughty, but I've had practically no hobby time of late, so whaddayagonnado?

Gaze into the face of
Judgement Day #13, Judge Fear



Deadworlds most well known whipping boy, this model sat in various stages of completion on my painting table for nearly two years.  It was a tangible relief to finish him.



I worked on the rest of my Dark Judges hundreds of painted miniatures ago, back in late 2011.  How I paint is always changing, so it was tricky to try to go back to paint Fear in the same style as the others, but I managed it... eventually.



The figure is unreleased as far as I know.  Although the rest of the Dark Judges have been available from Foundry for years now, Fear was not.  I picked up this model on a trip to Foundry a few years ago: I dont know if it is available for sale.



Somewhat dodgy paint job aside, it really is a personal pleasure to have these four creeps ready for a game.  All together now...

They look absolutely fantastic 

[Mason]

Brilliant!
Mr. F blends in just fine with his brothers.
  

Never thought that I would ever say this, but....'Love those kneepads!'
 

[OSHIROmodels]

Great stuff chaps, keep it coming 

cheers

Mindblowing stuff! Awesome brushwork, great mini's and fantastic scenery! Awesome stuff overall, will definitely be keeping an eye on this.

One question though, those corpses around the feet of the dark judge chaps - Pray tell where those were bought from? 

[Michka]

Fantastic paint job on Judge Fear. All the Dark Judges look terrific. You say these are Foundry. How do they compare with the Mongoose/Warlord Dark Judges?
And extra points on including my absolute, all-time favorite panel of Judge Dredd.

Genius!
