Judge Dredd - the Blints!

 The Blints 

The perfect murderous couple, the couple are one of Mega Citi serial killers. Homer would find the target and his wife Oola Blint “the Angel of Mercy” a bored housewife would then remove the unfortunate citizen. They began as utilitarian killers, removing those they thought were not offering Mega Citi any benefits, but later randomly killed any citizen, leaving behind their calling card, a red rose. It is thought they have killed over 300 citizens of Mega Citi, the Blints escape to Brit Citi before being caught by Judge Dredd. 

Homer who is also “peeper” informant for the judges is wearing his bat patrol wings so he can spy on Mega Citi citizens and dob into the Judges or find his wife a suitable target.

Really happy with the results, both figures are resin from the Warlord Games old range.

Judge Dredd -Citi-Def

 Citi-Def 

My first unit is a Citi Defence unit using a mix Mongoose plastics with a bit of green stuff and a future soldier for the leader. I elected to use a simple brown and cream palette, really happy with the result, basing is simple grey to match my asphalt table top roads.

Judge Dredd- Citadel Robots

Para 3 Bots 

I picked these up off eBay about 5 weeks ago to add to my Dredd collection, they are circa 1978 and I had a few in the mid 80s which I used in Rouge trader games, God knows were they ever got too.
The figs originally were West End Games for the Paranoia Game I think, then citadel purchased the rights to produce the figure while in Newark. Citadel released the figures as Para 3 Bots. They come with separate tops and bottoms so you can mix and match to suit roles and were random in the box.

Judge Dredd - Vestal Virgins

 Vestal Virgins 

A start to my first Block gang for my Judge Dredd collection are the Vestal Virgins for the Liz Hurley block in sector 10. The Vestal Virgins are named after Liz Hurley‘s Punk Rock band, I have elected to paint them in bright red clothing, with white highlights, white boots, armour and pink hair. The figures are a mix of Warlord Games Resin Judge Dredd range and Mongoose Publishing Block Wars figures with green stuff added Mohawks and some sculpted body armour. Really happy with the result. Below are three juves, one lieutenant and one female perp.

Monkey Business - Planet of the apes

 I picked up these chimps from a bring and buy stall at Partizan this year in a 1£ bucket, they have a very Socialist/communist vibe about them, the chimp with the hammer also had a sickle but I removed that and intend to add a flag at some stage. I elected to paint them in worker blue clothing. 

I will also use them for my pulp and sci-fi games I think 

I also picked up this spaceman in the same box and opted for a orange suit for him, really happy with my colour selection. All of the figures are for the analogue painting challenge. 

Cheers

Wip Wednesday- eclectic holiday mix

 This Wednesday WIP is very eclectic as I am on holidays in Australia and my paint and figure travel pack is quite small.

First up are a mix of Mongoose and Warlord Judge Dredd figure ranges for my Dredd collection, two gangs, I plan to complete a lot of my Dredd collection over the next six weeks and a single space explorer (not sure of the range) for Pulp/sci-fi games. Next some Robots that I purchased on EBAY just for the analogue painting challenge. Then some Apes,  1 is “Joe Bananas” from Games Workshop Judge Dredd Range, the others are unknown range but have a very downtrodden worker socialist/communist vibe, they will also join my Dredd collection. Finally two camels from the Reaper Bones resin adventure range (only picked them up last week) for table fillers for pulp games or other 28mm desert type games.

Having a lovely break in the brisbane hinterland enjoying the sun and swimming everyday. 

Cheers

Matt
