28mm figure from Hinterland Miniatures of a Princess who is a colonel in a Hussar regiment hence the death's head emblem, nice figure but deserved better, far nicer painted version on the Hinterland site.....
Andras found this picture!
Received this book from Edwin but not..... as when he ran his competition I was interested in this book in the give away but did not win as my luck with most competitions is atrocious, so anyway this arrived in the post with a note......
The note.........and thank you to my anonymous giver......much appreciated, half way through it already........
BigLee and his awful, awful dice rolling..... incredibly awful luck with dice and usually when I'm on his fecking side in a game and the challenge issued by Ray was is he the worst dice roller ever? I tried the challenge and yes he still is!!!!!
This little picture challenge tickled me.........
Seemingly I would end up as"The sinister stranger who is taken hostage at the very start of the film (pre-credits!)".
Compared to some of the outcomes this is not too bad..........
Have a good week if you can and don't forget the Google+ button for sharing and more communication between blogs,,,,,,,,,,,
BLOG-CON draws closer and Sidney Roundwood has asked for some help, BLOGGERS FOR CHARITY has had some good news and PR due to our mate Loki!
Still not started painting but getting there, just found out where I left my Mojo:D
Don't fancy an acid bath so I definitely won't be taking up a career as a copper anytime soon!
ReplyDeleteThat's going to leave a mark Paul!
DeleteCrap, I was mauled by dogs!
ReplyDeleteNice job on the figure.
And BigLee still has the worst roller ever title.
Big dogs Alex?
DeleteWhere is your mojo hiding?
ReplyDeleteI was the police office who committed suicide after trying to save the day. Oh the humanity!
Sounds like the hero to me!
Deletenice figures!
ReplyDeleteapparently i'm a big boobed bimbo who no one cares about....
I care Steve or is that Stephanie?
DeleteThe Colonel still looks good mate, The book is a nice surprise. oh and apparently 'I am the films final girl? who spontaneously combusts but returns from the grave to seek my revenge!'
ReplyDeleteLol very amusing!
I do like a little revenge Simona?
DeleteA very generous gift from someone.
ReplyDeleteTake a look down the back of your sofa - your mojo may be there, but if not you'll probably find some loose change, pens, sweeties etc to make up for it.
As for that picture challenge:
"I am the big-chested (big chested? *pfft*, bimbo? *harrumph*) who is crushed to death but returns from the grave to seek my revenge"
Big busted revenge, who knew, can we call you busty from now on?
DeleteI like your paint job and what a nice surprise regards the book, this hobby of ours is full of decent peeps
ReplyDeleteI am a local nutter who gets eaten alive whilst doing something naughty with my lover, or is that gobbled? :-0
Ian
You wish mate but you're right about the blogosphere!
DeleteI am a person who works at the motel who gets mauled by dogs but they never find the body.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the book. There are some very kind and generous people in our hobby.
Nice figure and it will fit so well with the others you have done. Email sent concerning Skirmish and fudge and such. All the best mate.
I've been trying to get in contact with Postie for a couple of days but a game usually wipes him out. I will reply soon my friend.
DeleteYeah sorry I forgot about Postie. Let me know when you can. No worries. It's all done and in the fridge now setting and drying out a little.
DeleteNo problem.
DeleteNice figure Fran!! I too received the book from a mysterious benefactor!! Good eh? and apparently I'm the blonde haired bimbo with big tits (well I'm not blonde?) who is tortured before being killed at the end when all seemed safe!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a good book and I have seen your moobs but you're as grey as feck now!
DeleteI wouldn't die in a slasher movie because I'd be the slasher and in my movie, evil always wins because good is dumb.
ReplyDeleteQuiet true because then there would be no sequels!
DeleteA Princess Death's Head? That's a new one!
ReplyDeleteAll Hussar regiments had them I believe?
Deleteshe doesn't have a girly face, but she sure does have a girly skirt, Fran
ReplyDeleteShe did have a face like a bulldog licking piss off a nettle!
DeleteDamn it, I got the acid. Not a way to go
ReplyDeleteIt can be nasty mate.
DeleteApparently I am:
ReplyDelete"The film's final girl...who is mauled by wild dogs...at the end when all seemed safe"
I feel pretty. Well, maybe not.
There's always the sequel mate, you've got a couple more in you it seems!
DeleteNice.k miniature, don't fret about the paint job, it's good.
ReplyDeleteI'm hung by by own intestines. I've got to travel tis week for work, so I'll watch my back...
....and you front mate!
DeleteNice figure , great colors you used francis Love it
ReplyDeleteCheers
Thanks Vincent!
DeleteLocal crazy person hung by their intestines after trying to save the day. Sounds about right.
ReplyDeleteFMB
That's the rumour mate:P
DeleteNice pained model.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that sir.
DeleteNice work nonetheless - Is the figure based on this lady? Looks similar for sure.
ReplyDeleteI'm a cop who spontaneously combusts after revealed as the killer. Not half bad (surname first!).
I believe she is and a bad guy too Andras?
DeleteIts all good fun until you're the jock that nobody cares about and commits suicide !
ReplyDeleteYou'll be missed and come back in the sequel!
DeletePrincess looks like lead on the band camp. Love the colors on her. do I want to know how I would die? Not in my bucket list. Dice roll, I don't know my luck never favors me anytime.
ReplyDeleteShe has a band leader look to her, Glenda Miller?
DeleteTo me she kinda, maybe the hat? :)
DeleteThat is a wonderful figure; I really like that range. Dean
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean!
DeleteI always say "Yes!" to a woman leader who keeps her hand tightly gripped on her pistol! Nice work, General.
ReplyDeleteThanks Field Marshall.
DeleteIf a princess like that existed right now, I'd see about making her mine. All that badass.. mf.
ReplyDeleteCough.
That's a bad cough you got there mate!
DeleteFigure looks great! I love the coloring on the purple dress.
ReplyDeleteApparently I'm the depressed, quiet one who dies by meat cleaver and is never found. That's... depressing.
That is depressing.
DeleteShe's looking so beautiful, great colors!
ReplyDeleteWe all hope to go out while on the job!
ReplyDeleteIt seems:
ReplyDelete"I am the sinister stranger who is mauled by wild dogs at the end when all seemed safe".
Nice figure and good to hear you found where you left your mojo.
Christopher
Sinister....you....surely not?
Deletelets see, pot smoking comedy relief who is buried alive but nobody cares. Not sure I like that....lol
ReplyDeleteI'd care!
DeleteWell thanks for that Fran. I'm the quiet, depressed one who gets raped before death and who's body is never found. I'd better carry a tin of starters in me pocket then . . . .
ReplyDeleteI'm going to take lee's dice challenge now - that should be a laugh.
Raped by a horde of horny women though?
DeleteWell that was a twist..
ReplyDeleteI'm the person who works at the motel, who is gutted with a chainsaw, after being revealed that I was the killer!
So.. um.. beware if I am in your neighbourhood then! :)
Liked the painting though..
Norman Bates with a twist of Leatherface!
DeleteLove it! A pink dress and a death's head are quite the unusual combo. But it works!
ReplyDeleteThanks Monty!
DeleteAck! I couldn't even look at the how will you die poster!
ReplyDeleteLove the pink dress, very fetching :)
Do you look good in pink too!
DeleteNice Hussar figure - I'd like a variety of these for a 'Ladies Club' for Empire of the Dead...
ReplyDeleteThey do a decent variety on the site.
DeleteGood skills all around Fran...I am the murderer!
ReplyDeleteI knew it!!!!
DeleteGreat paintjob on a very nice figure!
ReplyDeleteCheers
Stefan
Nice one Stefan!
DeleteGlad to hear you're getting your mojo back, Fran. I love the bright colors on this one.
ReplyDeleteThanks Elsie!
DeleteNicely painted Fran.
ReplyDeleteI don't die in a slasher film. First of all I'm too classy to show up in a cheap film and secondly I'm too feckin' smart to get myself killed.
Finally the voice of reason!
DeleteNicely painted figure, FRan. And the book, really, really interesting!
ReplyDeleteHave you read it Juan?
Deletewow that uniform in the photo is dazzling. Also, surprised at the clarity of such an old pic.
ReplyDeleteNice painted figure Fran! And you don't want to know how I die! :-D
ReplyDeleteGreetings
Peter
Chicken but thanks!
DeleteNice work Fran. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Thanos.
DeleteSo I guess I'm the pot-smoking comedy relief... who is mauled by wild dogs... but returns from the grave to seek my revenge.
ReplyDeleteOh if only I were a 28 year old named Zach...
Nothing wrong with a little revenge and some sequel work!
DeleteWell at least I know how I am going to die, well at least it is with a smile on my face, lol.
ReplyDeleteGreat painted princess there and I think it looks good mate
Thanks my friend.
DeleteOh my gosh, that chart is horribly fun. Just terrible. I love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Whisk.
DeleteHeh, according to your chart I come back alive.
ReplyDeleteSo that's all that matters to me.
It's a good start!
