Copplestone Castings FW24 - Men in Black

Copplestone Castings FW24 - Men in Black. Easy to paint with their limited colour palette and happy with the way I painted black.

Statuesque Miniatures Statuesque Starport Range

Statuesque Miniatures Statuesque Starport range. In order from left to right: Able Spacewoman 2 with goggles and toolkit (SP005), Able Spacewoman 1 with torch (SP004) and Able Spaceman 2 with flamethrower (SP003). I decided to go for the same colour scheme as shown on Statuesque website though a bit more vibrant 70s Sci-fi orange, harking back to the days of Space 1999 and UFO.

Sadly at time of writing (June 2023), https://www.statuesqueminiatures.co.uk/ do not seem to be producing these wonderful miniatures and are concentrating on their cuter range of miniatures.

Ral Partha Foot Knight with sword

So this miniature was acquired twice. Once unpainted and the other painted from the Games Workshop cabinet at Dalling Rd, Hammersmith. I just recently painted the other miniature and here are the comparisons of both, my painted version in purple and the one painted from the cabinet in a pinky red. Sculpted by Dennis Mize (who sadly passed away in 2006).

So now for the really confusing cataloguing of this miniature. The base are stamped with Ral Partha and dated 1979. The reference numbers are:

Ral Partha Adventurers 98-002 (F)

Ral Partha RP4 Adventurers (F-03) Fighter 3

Footsore Miniatures SKU: TEMP001 Knight Hospitalier - Order of Saint John

Footsore Miniatures SKU: TEMP001 Knight Hospitalier - Order of Saint John 

Painted near enough to what is shown on Footsore Miniatures.

The Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem, commonly known as the Knights Hospitallers or the Order of Saint John, was a medieval and early modern Catholic military order.

Went for a very dirty shield.

WizKids Critical Role Core Spawn Crawlers miniatures

Well I need some alien ripping crawler monsters for a Mothership RPG scenario ( The Screaming on the Alexis from the Dead Planet mini campaign) I was running F2F (Face to Face). So I thought these WizKids Critical Role Core Spawn Crawlers (Wave1) miniatures were very appropriate. Plus I could use them for future scenarios for other settings. Pretty much happy with the results.

Citadel F4 Mercenaries

Citadel F4 Mercenaries (1986 - 1988) shown in White Dwarf #94. F4 (M-06) Simkin on the left and F4 (M-02) Perkin on the right. After acquiring these miniatures at the time (late 1980s), I eventually got to paint them for a game of Dee Sanction. Pretty much happy with the results.
