My First Zombie Apocalypse related figure of 2012. This is a fantastic miniature I picked it up second hand for a few quid from a guy I know over at the LAF forums. I found out that he is a Team Frog Studios Miniature 'Sheriff Justice' he is listed as being a vampire hunter but I think he will be a great use for all sorts of games and for me it will be a survivor. Armed with pistol and a sawned off shotgun hes ready for anything.
I stripped him off the original paintjob using Dettol (great stuff). I haven't done anything to the base as its already textured. I left the orginal slotta base on as next to a standard 25mm its the right hight and not far off the diameter. I probably should of took photos prior to matt varnishing him but never mind. I'm quite chuffed painting time was about 2-2 1/2 hours.
Definately not a man to cross! Great looking miniature.
ReplyDeleteLooks like one mean MF!!!! Dettol for cleaning figures?????
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't want to mess with him! Nice figure and a good paint job.
ReplyDeleteNice figure and he must be displaying great hygiene after the dettol bath.
ReplyDeleteDettol?! Tell more dude!
ReplyDeleteGreat figure and paint job.
Hahaha used Dettol as paint stripper, how ever did you figure that one out ? Sheriff looks great, plenty of attitude and the painting is good too.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys. Yeah I was skeptical as well at first but its the best stripper i've ever used. I read about it on the Forum of Doom. So picked some up for a couple of quid to give it a try I went 1/3 Dettol to 2/3 water and left for 24hrs. a light Scrub in warm soapy water and a tooth brush and it was near perfect.
ReplyDeleteMy previous stuff i used for stripping was a right pain in the harris used to have to soak for a few days scrub resoak, pick bits out resoak. Dettol rules! Supposed to be ok on plastic as well. Though I haven't tried it yet!
OOO Forgot to mention @ Ray and Vampifan I have been reading your blogs for some reason I can't get the comments to work on your blogs!
ReplyDeleteThat is a very nice mini with a great paintjob. Did you use the nonmetallic metal technique on the shotgun?
ReplyDeleteBTW - I'm having the same problem with Ray's and other blogs. Seems kind of intermittent.
@Joe Yeah I had a go at the NMM its not like fantastic but I like it better than just painting metal paints over.
ReplyDeleteI've switched to Firefox and can post no problem. But its seems to be certain blogs. It makes me wonder if theres been an update in the background and now some random settings stopping certain people
This is a great miniature!
ReplyDeleteBad ass survivor, still trying to uphold the law!
