Dags, sorry its no help but you know I dont believe you about the skill level, right?  ;)

Mr Phipps, hopefully its fun and challenging for the leauges involved, i was debating whether to swap the starting zombies with abominations/ ghouls just to mix up the available monster types.

And as I needed some cultists for this and for games in general ive finally finished off some more.

A mixture of Copplestone and Blind Beggar minis

Thanks for the kind words, I would so want to see your take on this, with your modelling skills we'd be seeing some (even more than is posted now) amazing stuff and then I could happily steal your ideas  :D

It is indeed Mr Phipps



And now onto some jungle head hunter types, there's enough to make a nice league should I decide to or I'll just use them in the same vein as the servants of Apophis follower types so the leader could be the serpent priest level, those with guns could be armed cultists and then the guys with spears will be insane mob level gangs.



The leader is the Salute 2012 free figure, the rest are warlord zulus.

And onto some stuff for the more modern pulp/ SpyFi



TTCombats event mini they had for sale over the UK games expo weekend, when it arrived it had a sword rather than the knife I thought it had from the promo image, so with a little help from the wargames factory female survivors sprue I added a bow, so we have my take on The Arrow.

Glad you like it Pete

 I have some reinforcements arriving from warlord due to the sprue sale, some will be turned in to native guides/ porters and such for exploring leagues.

While awaiting the reinforcements, I have managed to finish these off, they're a present for my daughter (her of the zombie egg naming), to try and persuade he to play some light games with me.



As she's 6  Im gonna be sitting down thinking about how to copy the episodes plot styles rather than use the full PA rules.

Initial thoughts are that the plot points will be various characters and she has to explore and question them and/ or build traps.

The villain will make an appearance per turn to try and scare the gang off (not sure how this will work right now)

Completing all the plot points will allow the gang to confront and reveal the villain.

Still enjoying you musings (I've my own version of a cult planned for a game later in the year just requires a few more sculpts.It's not a typical take on one though).

sculpts you say, colour me intrigued  :D

Not a big update this time as Ive got the very little done, Im going revisit the Cafe bar this weekend and see If I cant progress that some what.

But in the mean time, here are some of the NPCs for the Sideshow of horrors

its been bugging me on how to base them so in the end I've gone with a rough wood effect to simulate the stage

Bases look cool! And those are some cool models. Who makes those figures?

Some great additions to your collection since I last visited this thread.
I think my favourites have to be Scooby and the Gang.
 :-* :-*


Good luck with getting Little Miss Soldado involved.
 :D

Hi Mr Phipps

They're from the Pulp Figures range "A Cheap Magic Act" I bought the set at Salute some how managing to damage the magicians face in the meantime

https://pulpfigures.com/products/view/79

(store photo - not mine, although I may steal the ideas  ::) )


Mason

Glad you like it, scooby and co went down a treat when I showed them to her, so much so that she sneaked Scoob and Shaggy off to school and I need to give them a touch up :D

Havent as yet managed to sort out a simplified set of rules  to actually get her to play. might try out some ideas with her this weekend based around the haunted house scenario from Tomb of the Serpent.

Some progress was made with the Cafe bar but not enough to actually use it as yet



anyways its way way to hot to work on this at the moment so back  to sitting in the fridge I go.

so ignoring the fact that i've forgotten to carry on  with the cafe bar (again) I've begun building a haunted house for Scooby doo type games with my daughter.

Looking around for printable furniture to carry on the house build from the TotS book, I found on Wargames Vault the Stoelzels structure's Haunted House.



We had a small game today, testing out some more ideas.

work begins on the 1st floor (or 2nd as the plan says) but I am going to need more foamboard before that gets to far.
