Scaramanga and Nick Nack

A couple of Bond villains - Scaramanga and Nick Nack. I have a few more that I will post soon:



They are both 28mm Foundry miniatures converted to look a bit more like the characters.

More movie mini's

More of my modern 28mm collection.



First is a couple of Kill Bill characters. Beatrix Kiddo is a Copplestone Babe conversion. O'ren Ishii is from Hasslefree (can't wait to use O'ren in 7TV as a villain - I always seem to end up as the villain!).

Next is Batman and the Joker. Batman is a heroclixs rebased and painted. The Joker is originally a Foundry mini, but with a new head and green stuff hair. I like the way this turned out, although I still can't paint details around the eyes very easily.
What skills would you give the joker in 7TV? I think he should have some Disadvantage representing his insanity.



"Why so serious?!" Batman and the Joker


 Last a few oddities. Jason from Friday the 13th (thinking i might use him in 7TV as an Inhuman Servitor or Failed Experiment). Kick Ass from a certain film... can't remember the title right now. And Selene from Underworld. Which reminds me, has anyone seen any rules for Vampires in 7TV? I have seen them for 7ombie, and while good, don't quite seem to fit in. The 7ombie rules are for B-movie vamps and seem a little more feral, where as I would like some for vamps like Selene, Blade or Spike from Buffy. Vampires who are little more sophisticated and sometimes use weapons.

More painted mini's coming soon...

Matrix and A-team

Wow. Been a while since I posted. Thought its about time I posted some more of my collection. These are some of the figures I hope to use in 7TV (such a great ruleset). Just need to convince my friends to play it!
First up some characters from the Matrix:

Trinity, Neo, Morpheus

Mouse, Switch and Apoc





Next up is the A-Team from the Foundry. Used to love this show as a kid. Hannibal and Murdoch capture the characters perfectly, but B.A. and Face are a little disappointing. I think their poses and detail could be a little better.

Nabootique

Here is a custom cardstock building I've been working on based on the Nabootique shop from the Mighty Boosh. It's 28mm scale. Now I just need a Naboo and Bollo miniatures to go with it!

Made my own textures in photoshop. Made with 1.5mm card. Based on a London style building. It's pretty solid and I cut the windows out and inset them. 

The width is 4" and I plan to make a few more of the same and hope they fit to a modular grid system for my terrain. 

I think I will use it in skirmish games like 7TV or even Necromunda.

Things I'm working on

Wow. Can't believe I have'nt posted anything this year. Been reading a lot of blogs, but never seem to get around to finishing any of my own projects.
Well I am still working on things. I seem to keep swapping from one thing to another.
I made some more Shipping containers, smaller ones this time. I put the originals next to them for comparison, and when you see them next to a building you realise just how huge they were. I like the smaller containers better, it uses less card and printed paper, and I can fit more on the tabletop!
