The Judges

Hello and welcome back, 

A little while back picked up Warlord’s 2000AD Judge Dredd boxed set. I got the judges finished a couple of months back but the pictures didn’t turn out well. So it was back to the photo set up.

These are resin figures and are 32mm in scale. 

As promised I have included some size comparison pictures with the older Mongoose Mega City One figures.

There is a fair height difference between them. The Warlord figures are thinner too. Looking at my old mongoose figures, I think they will need a few black washes/glazes to tone them down to the colour of the Warlord figures. 

The whole justice department. I now have to get all the gangs and other Mega City One miscreants painted too.

Thanks for looking.

The Styx Brothers

Hello and welcome back. 

Look out lads, the Styx Brothers are in town!  

The Styx Brothers are Strontium Dogs bounty hunters who seem to excel at the job. They have fallen foul of fellow Strontium Dog Johnny Alpha as they play dirty and steal bounties usually after the hard work has been done. They don’t think twice about shooting another Strontie in the back to steal a bounty. This has lead to a feud between the bounty hunters. 

The Styx Brothers have a unusual mutation in that they all look and sound identical. So pinning down a wrong doing by them is near impossible. There also seems to be an inexhaustible supply of Styx Brothers. The Styx Brothers come from the township of Styx which lies about a days march North of the Iron Tower Ruins. Few people have visited the remote township but those who have report that everyone there looks identical. No women have been seen there leading to speculation that the town houses a ancient cloning device. 

The Styx Brothers are from Foundry 2000AD line (the dynamically posed one who is slightly bulkier) and Strontium Dog: The Stix Brothers by Warlord Games. 

The figures painted up quickly and would have a variety of wasteland uses as bounty hunters, law men or some warlord’s henchmen. 

Thanks for looking and stay safe out there. 

More Stronties for the wastelands.

Hello and welcome back from your wasteland wandering. 

Today we have three more bounty hunter “Strontium Dogs” and friends of Johnny Alpha for your entertainment. These guys provide backup for Johnny when Brittianna City slaps a big bounty on an entire settlement or gang. 

I am using these figures in my own setting on matt black god’s world and they have their back stories tweaked to fit (just like every other figure on this blog)

Middenface McNulty:

Often drunk and great in close combat is Middenface McNulty. The Pictish mutant bounty hunter is a loyal friend of Johnny Alpha but can be bad tempered and hot headed.

Durham Red:

This dangerous mutant looks pretty normal at first glance but closer inspection shows sharp fangs. Durham Red has a unusual Vampirism mutation. Her mutation allows Red to be stronger and faster than normal humans with the draw back that she needs to drink blood to survive. Preferably human. In combat the smell of blood can cause her to lose control and start drinking the blood of her enemies or enter a blood rage. Needless to say Red’s needs cause her to be driven out of many settlements but if she can stay focused she is a formidable foe.

Maeve the Many-Armed:

Hailing from a land across the sea west of Rubbleborg, Maeve landed one dark and stormy night. Her multiple arms proved useful in combat and she drifted inland in search of the Mutant Temple lost in the Blasted Ruins. Here she heard of the Strontium Dogs bounty hunters and signed up. 

When questioned about her homeland across the sea Maeve evades and changes the subject. 

These figures are all from the Strontium Dog: SD Agents by Warlord Games.

Thanks for looking and stay safe out there.

Puffball plants

Hello and welcome back. 

The end wars of Mattblackgod’s world saw many toxins, biological and mutagenic toxins thrown about the planet. As these have seeped into the soil and water table it is hardly surprising that the world sees weird and wonderful mutations. The Puffball plant is one example.

The noticeable feature of the Puffball plant is the large red sacks which when disturbed burst, releasing a cloud of toxic spores which can intoxicate and even kill. The careless find themselves coming to hours later with a headache from hell. The really unlucky ones find themselves stripped of anything of use or value.

Savvy wastelanders often herd opponents towards Puffball plants and then shoot the Puffball’s to gain a edge over their enemy. Wasteland Shamans harvest the puffballs to use during their “ceremonies”. 

The Puffball plants  are Na'Alene Scent Traps from the Beyond the Gates of Antares line by Warlord Games.

Thanks for looking and stay safe out there. Oh and don’t stray too close to the Puffball plants.
