I'm slowly working through my companions... with exception of Dodo, because let's face it, what use was she? Susan should have been part of this group, but I had to cut her head off on account of it being a really, really, really ugly head... no paint job could have solved that one, so off it came and I'm halfway through replacing it...
and a shape of something to come...
watch this space, just don't hold your breath... it's going to take a while...
a really nice sculpt by Andrew Rae (Korosho Productions) for Karl and Graeme at Crooked Dice, she is due to appear on the Crooked Dice website at some point - hence the extra effort on the base (for me at anyrate)... chip and burger papers and a crushed Fosters can made from Rizla paper... it will probably get rebased at some point as it won't match any of the other stuff and I have little to no urban terrain planned (dreamed of, but not planned)...
converted from the KissKissBangBang not-Pussy Galore from Artizan... helpful assistance from Andrew Rae on the hair... with the base figure I could have gone for the Partners In Crime pinstripe or the Sontaran Strategem outfit... I figured the pinstripe would be a bit much with the Doctor in it as well so it had to be the other one...
bit of a mixed bag on this one I reckon... not 100% happy with my g/s'ing (noticed little niggles when I was painting her) and I spent far too long doing and redoing her trousers (didn't help that the reference pics had been doctored and had the trousers either grey or beige) before I figured that would do... all in all, I like what I've done, but could be so much better - may start from scratch at some point, the base figure is fine, I just need to get better with the g/s...
needs varnishing and grass adding... but out of Dullcote til payday and the gloss would kill any pics... I may feel better about it after the Dullcote...
Liz was sculpted from the story The Silurians, so the Doctor is in his black velvet jacket and cape as worn in that same story and throughout that season.
Jo was taken from Day of the Daleks, which meant annoying bloody red and black plaid shirt which was done and redone and redone again over about 3 evenings... still working on a more colourful later 3rd Doctor.
UNIT finally get to the front of my rebasing queue... again just need the bases varnishing and some grass...
