Crooked Dice Lawmen with Shotguns

I have painted up some more cops this week to boost my numbers for my LAPD Police Force. This gives me a total of 8 officers and a Sergeant. I have been looking up where a lot of those classic films have been set from the 80's and was quite surprised how many were set in Los Angeles.




So having already got Riggs, Murtaugh and Axel Foley done earlier in the year I plan to get some characters for Die Hard and Predator 2 and recently saw some new additions to Studio Miniatures Survivor range which I ordered. Then I also realised Terminator was set in LA also so that is another future plan. The cops can at least then fulfil multiple roles as extras. Annoyingly adding them I have 9 in total which works out at 15 Ratings but I need more Sergeants to lead them. I may pick up the handguns set. But also have the M16 armed cops which I plan to paint up as Swat!

  12. Those little details like the badges, metal buttons & buckles, etc. make the minis look so good. Brilliantly done on all the details.

  14. They look fab mate! What's the secret to your black? I looks so good.

    LA sadly tho is a toilet of a town. No idea why anyone would want to move there, much less film.
