Bullshott at the Top of the World - Inuit painted
« on: 30 October 2016, 11:16:17 PM »
Here starts yet another distraction project. I'm posting the project here as it will be set on the classic pulp era of 1920/30s, although I intend there to be crossovers with Back of Beyond and Cthulhu.

Initial offerings will be miniatures suitable for exploring either the Arctic wastes or the Himalayas.

To start with, here are the Polar Explorers from Pulp Figures:

Page 3 - Polar bears painted
Page 3 - Arctic wolves painted
Page 3 - Walrus painted

Page 4 - Inuit painted

Bullshott, great minis and picture - that "cold weather haze light" seems perfect IMHO!

To the Mountains of Madness they are ready to go!   ;)

This thread has been lost in the icy wastes for far too long. In the background I've been painting some more stuff for this project, in order to use this setting with Fistful of Lead rules. So look out for more stuff very soon.

Hmm - Fistful of Ice or Fistful of Snow?
