As mentioned in my Emperor Penguin post I am going to the 7TV day at the Wargames Illustrated HQ on 1st July.
I need to make a 30 Rating cast using the 7TV Second Edition releases. I could of just gone with something from my collection but felt it was a good excuse to clear some figures out the todo pile.
Having had a mooch in my drawers I found the Beat detectives and sticking on Life on Mars have decided to do a Law and Order cast.
First up and finished in a mass production line are the ordinary Police Constables. I had picked up two of Coppers 1 and one of Coppers 2 blisters giving me 9 ordinary constables. I also included the Police Sergeant (comes in his own pack with a marksman) as he wears a similar uniform.
Coppers 1
Coppers 1 pack 2 heads switched around and not satisfied I bent the arms slightly to make them more different,
Coppers 2
Those on the left are as they come and those on the right are the modded versions.
I Love this model its one of my favourites from the entire range. The Marksman is a close second though (being painted up as I type this!)
Great looking Officers sir!
ReplyDeleteThanks Michal.
DeleteSplendid. Nice to see the long arm getting some coverage. Brilliant Job
ReplyDeleteThanks Clint. I had a blast painting through these and the Stars and Co Stars (more posts incoming).
DeleteI love these figures, they paint up really well. I have both crime and law and order casts. We still play first edition though. Not to keen on the second edition rules with the character cards.
ReplyDeleteYeah indeed I've pretty much painted 20 figures this week From Constables to the Detectives that Crooked Dice do. I like both if I'm honest. Second lends it self to more balanced play. I find you can just pick a bunch of cards up create a cast and away you go.
DeleteYou can still tweak characters though. You just need to make up your own cards.
A beautiful group, well done, love the last one with crossed arms, he looks so determined!
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil yeah the Sergeant is one of my favourites out them all as well. Looks like he is not going to stand any messing.
DeleteWhat a great unit Simon. a proud bunch of boys in blue. The Sergeant is a must have miniature.
ReplyDeleteThanks Michael yes indeed he is. Love the sculpt and his no nonsense aura he gives off.
DeleteAn excellent cohesive force. Well painted.
ReplyDeleteThanks Phil.
DeleteA great cast of figures, Simon.
ReplyDeleteCheers Bryan its good to be painting 28mm figures again.
DeleteI don't know, Simon, you're a bit like a British bus. you post the odd mini every few days and the suddenly there's ten of 'em!!! Wonderful Boys in Blue. What paints did you use? :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers dude. I am finding it difficult to get online lately. Its either do some hobby or go online. The hobby being the winner mostly.
DeleteI've had a really good painting week finishing nearly 20 figures! Just need to get all the photos and posts written.
Sorry forgot to add the bit about the paints. Its a matt black basecoat (Some I thinned down from Artist Acrylics as I had ran out of my own Vallejo Matt Black. Drybrushed with a Codex Grey like colour (again mixed myself. Then a wash of Army Painter Dark Tone over the top. It seems to of blended it all nicely.
DeleteExcellent stuff mate. Make up to traditional levels of productivity too! :) Great work mate. :)
ReplyDeleteCheers mate. Riding the wave while I can lol. Catching up nearly to last years halfway mark with the next few figs done.
DeleteThat's quite a force!
