About Me
- TamsinP
- London, United Kingdom, United Kingdom
- A mythical beast - a female wargamer! I got back into wargaming in the summer of 2011 after a very, very long break and haven't looked back since. I must admit that I seem to be more of a painter/collector than a gamer, but do hope to correct that at some point in the near future. My gaming interests span the ages, from the "Biblical" era all the way through to the far future. I enjoy games of all sizes, from a handful of figures up to major battles (see my megalomaniacally sized Choson Korean and Russian Seven Years War armies).

Finished: Assorted Scatter Terrain for Judge Dredd
It appears that I am on a bit of a roll at the moment. Following rapidly on from the concrete scatter terrain, I've now finished some other bits of scatter terrain.
Mini-Guns:
...because every self-respecting mega-block's Citi Def troop needs some heavy firepower to defend their residents against various threats like the Sovs, zombies, other blocks. Kept under lock and key, there is no danger of them falling into the hands of the block's criminal gangs...
Prisoner Posts:
With street Judges making multiple arrests every hour (Dredd once arrested several thousand people in one go. OK, it was the entire crew of a Sov warship, but...) and with such a high level of crime, they don't have time to take prisoners into the Sector house for transfer to the Iso Cubes. Instead they simply cuff the perps to prisoner posts for pick-up by the Pat-wagons and H-wagons.
Gas Cylinders:
Garbage Grinders:
Waste needs to be disposed of and it's much easier to process if it's already been ground down into small bits. Most homes will have one of these, or there will be one on their floor of the block, and there will also be public ones in the great outdoors.
Criminals have been known to use them to dispose of bodies and, in one case, to use one (marked as out of order) as a hiding place for an assassination attempt.
Janitorial Droid:
All of the above items were from Wargames Terrain Workshop.
Food Vending Machines:
Who needs a kitchen (or even has space for one in their slum apartment?) when you can simply get a nutritious*, hot (or self-heating) meal from the vending machine on your floor. Take your pick of Sump Industries "Grot Pots" or Munce Inc Ready Meals.
These machines are from Antenociti's Workshop.
* As certified by the Justice Department.
If all goes well, I might have another terrain piece finished tomorrow.

Finished: Some Random Figures for Judge Dredd
And they're finished! Just a few odd bits for Mega City One.
Agents from the planet p'Lus Hy meet in secret to coordinate their plans for planetary domination:
A citizen has had too much to drink:
A ganger and his chimp on a bike:
And two grav-board surfers having a friendly race:
I've left the flight stands unglued so that I can use different heights. They will probably just act as scenery for games.
The teddy bears and the passed-out drunk are from TT Combat; the other figures are from Wargames Terrain Workshop. I did replace the heads of the surfers with ones from Anvil Industry (the original heads were too large and not very nice sculpts - sorry Dave!). I'm not keen on the resin they were cast in - it's very brittle and bits snapped easily. Some of the casting (especially on the underside of the boards) was a bit rough as well.

Paint Table Saturday 25 July
I decided this morning that it was time to get back to painting, so I started work on these. I've done quite a bit more since taking the photos a few hours ago. If all goes well, I should have the painting finished tomorrow, but probably not the varnishing and basing (I also need to get some flight stands for the grav surfers before they are "finished").

My plan is to finish off the Dredd stuff before I begin work on my Romans and Germans for Infamy, Infamy!

Finished: Cop Shop & Grav Lift/Platform
Continuing with the terrain theme, I have finished a couple more pieces today.
Police Station
This Police Station from TT combat is for my Salutesville pulp era collection. I had assembled it a couple of years ago, but only just got round to priming and painting it. I think that was at least in part because I realised that it would have been so much easier to paint the interior details before assembly.
Grav Lift/Platform
This kit was from Warbases (apart from the drinks can - don't remember what that was) and will be joining my other Strontium Dog terrain.
I've spent most of this afternoon priming all of this resin scatter terrain (and a couple of figures):
I still need to do some zenithal highlighting on the vehicles and figures, but that will have to wait until tomorrow.
I've also got these MDF bits to spray prime (having restocked with matt black from Poundland on Friday).
