 Work in progress robot from Crooked Dice.

There is a lot of tidying to do.

Wargames Atlantic Cannon Fodder II

 The follow up to Wargames Atlantic Cannon Fodder set is Cannon Fodder 2.

The box builds 24 female figures in jumpsuits with rifles, plus optional heavy weapons and pistols.

There are four identical sprues

There are a number of head styles.

Prodigal Son - The Walking Dead: All Out War returns

 With the announcement on the First of December 2023 that TWD:AOW would be returning to the fold, I thought it would be a good idea to have a look at the resin figures that made up the last sets produced by Mantic before they originally discontinued the game.

And what better figure to start with than the Prodigal Son himself Paul 'Jesus' Monroe.

The figure is in three parts with an additional moulded base.

The feeds are quite thick, but only the elbow and the rucksack require careful cleaning.

Crooked Dice Treasure Piles - part two

 

Back in October 2021 I bought the Treasure Pile objective tokens (now called Fantasy Objective Tokens) set from Crooked Dice. I based them on Renedra 25mm circular bases.

And there they remained, undercoated but unfinished.

Starting the New year, I set about painting one of them (I actually started on a number of them, but only this one is finished).

it is a broken shallow pottery dish with a small pile of coins on top.

The dish is Citadel Mounfang Brown, The edges are highlighted with Citadel Golfag Brown (it is a dry brush paint but it was applied as a edging paint). The coins were first painted with Vallejo Brass, then Vallejo Gold.

The dish was washed with Citadel Agrax Earthshade.

This is number Three in the set. I will add a number on the underside later.

Anvil Industries Leaper for Zona Alfa

 

Anvil Industries released a Print on Demand option at Salute and have been adding figures to the range.

At the end of 2023 they added Leapers, humanoid figures with long clawed hands, torn Gorka suits and gas masks.

There are four figures in the set, one crouching, one crouched down, one on all fours and one leaping.

There are four bodies (the one on all fours has both arms and legs attached). There are three pairs of arms, two sets of four heads (with different gas masks) and two tree stumps for the leaping figure.

The Gorka suit is Citadel Death World Forest.

The gas mask hood is Citadel Steel Legion Drab.

The flesh is Citadel Rakath Flesh.

Mask hardware is Vallejo Black Grey.

Lenses and wounds are Citadel Mephiston Red.

The flesh was washed with Citadel Drakenhof Nightshade.

The suit was washed with Army Painter Military Shader.

The hood and the boots with Citadel Agrax Earthshade.

The flesh does seem excessively grey.

So how do they compare in size to my Zona Alfa figures?

The comparison is difficult as the Leaper is crouched over. 

Here it is crouching next to an Empress Modern Russian.

Here it is with the compulsory William Killian comparison.

 A box game I bought way back when.
