Who Runs Bartertown?


My wasteland ladies have arrived they have been based and the few mold lines removed. All that needs doing is priming and they are ready to go. Whilst working on these I have managed to get a duo finished (Well its on a single base but they really count as a pair). 

This also the final figure from the Wasteland Kickstarter I backed a few years ago. There was another miniature but the KS owner decided the sculpt was not good enough which is a shame as it would of been spot on for Lord Humongus. Currently the molds have been sold on which is a shame as I would love to get a second set for some conversions.

Actually I tell a lie! As I still have the Post Apoc Ogre to do from that Kickstarter but I am unsure what to do with him now. Whether do do him as a large human or paint him to be be a super mutant hmmm.

I like my mini's to be functional and originally apart from his brute strength came with out any weapons. So converted this one slightly by adding a the large hammer. Loosely based on the weapons used in the Thunderdome fight scene. In hindsight I perhaps should of made a spiked mace instead as after researching images to paint them up thats what he seem to carry mostly. But never mind too late now.

When the weather is better and brighter I will dig out the full set and take some pictures of the set.

  1. Splendid work indeed, Simon. great mini and wonderful paint-jobs. Did you need to weight the front of the mini to deal with the weight distribution?
