The Nanny

Work has required a lot more of my time, lately.  This is impacting my painting.  😢




This teenager is from Alpha (no longer in business).  It's roughly sculpted and simple, but it works.





I picked this one because of its simplicity, so I could get a paint job done quickly.  I was too fast with this one, it's not one of my better examples...






This Maria clone (Metropolis) is from Reaper.







This was more interesting to paint.  But the darned camera picks up flaws I hadn't noticed before.

Special Ops


New additions to the collection.
Both of these are from Wargames Foundry. 


  
 




Providing sniper support to the other members of the team.










I don't know what kind of gun this guy is carrying, but it looks formidable.

Mortified


Mega City One has faced some incredible threats, but few more dangerous -- and none as iconic -- as the Dark Judges.


Someone called?



The Dark Judges are malevolent spirit-judges from an alternative dimension that occasionally cross over into MC1.






They came to the conclusion that crime is only committed by the living, so decided that all life is crime and proceeded to kill off their entire world.







These two models (Judge Mortis and his spirit form) are from Mongoose/Warlord (the former Judge Dredd range).









This poor victim of Mortis' is from JohnnyBorg/Mega Miniatures.






He's a little on the small side, but fits in just fine.

Men In Black


This post comes on the tail end of a productive holiday weekend.

These two Wargames Foundry models are good for acting as agents, corporate soldiers or mafia hitmen.




This guy bears a strong resemblance to a certain character from Pulp Fiction...





Royale with Cheese






I wonder how the recoil is going to affect this firing pose...

Urban Cowgirls



Both of these are from Wargames Foundry, and you don't want to mess with either one of them.

News At Eleven


The people of Mega City One get round-the-clock information from best news sources there are.







These are both from Copplestone Castings. 







They will make for great backdrop, or characters with a plot around them, or an annoyance that follows someone around and gets in the way all the time.  That sort of thing.
I know that EM-4 has a similar set, also sculpted by Mark Copplestone, that I may pick up.

Weekend Warriors


The SWAT/Citi-Def unit gets bigger.
The first model is from Wargames Foundry.  I like her pose, it conveys cautious action and, with her rifle slung behind her back and smg in hand, she's involved in a close encounter.










This modern soldier was  given to me in a box of other stuff.  I have no clue who makes it.  Gave it matching colors and it fits in with the rest of the team.
