I Will Be King "Hic"

Prince Rprt Drnkrd is the stepbrother of Queen Pmkn ZZbl of Terre de Betes and believes he should be the ruler not her. Luckly for the queen and her people Prince Rprt like his booze more than he wants power.
 
 Rprt is oblivious to the fact he is known throughout the kingdom for his drunken binges and weak mental capabilities.
 Yet, even in his drunk state he plots to take power and become king. But not yet, maybe after just one more bottle or two-hic or three-hic, hic, hic...

Prince Rprt is a plastic piece I painted earlier this month.

Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em

Battle is stressful and smoking has been a way to relax for soldiers for centuries.

These two American soldiers are like millions of other warriors who smoked whenever the chance arrived.
Officer, NCO or private rank makes little difference when you felt the need to "smoke 'em if you got 'em" call went out.
The BAR man and officer are plastic pieces I painted this week.

Corporal Chefs de Marshe carries vital supplies for the outposts of Queen Pmkn Zzbl of Terre de Betes

The lands of Terre de Betes can be dangerous, so the corporal uses his great speed to traverse the most hostile locations.
His steely determination and bravery have seen him through many tough situations as he follows his motto "The supplies MUST get through!"
This is a plastic piece I kit-bashed together and painted this week.

Only Fools Faceoff with the Erymanthian Boar

 

For generations, when Artimis-Mistress of the Hunt was angered she would send the fearsome Erymanthian Boar to destroy the farms and animals of those who had offended the Goddess.

So powerful and dangerous was the Erymanthian Boar that it would take the great Herakles to subdue the beast. 
As the 4th of his tasks, Herakles was required to capture the Erymanthian Boar and deliver him to King Eurystheus of Mycenae.  So fearsome was the boar that the king hid in a bronze urn until his retaines took the monster away.
The Erymanthian Boar is a plastic piece I painted in July of 2021.

Red Queen of Death

Les Sans-Coeur Reine Rouge de la Mort (The Heartless Red Queen of Death) knows only one way to rule-with brutality.
 

To her people she seems deathless herself as no living person can remember a time when she did not rule.
And no one who has opposed her has ever survived the encounter.
Is she truly deathless...does she live off the lives of her subjects, no one has yet had the strength to find out. Pray you never cross her path. 
The Red Queen of Death is a plastic piece I finished last weekend. She is from the Rise of  Mologh Game.

Five Brothers Make their Stand


In the depths of Winter five Soviet "Brothers" make a stand against the Third Reich invaders.
Wearing a motley assortment of clothing this band has fought together since the invasion.

Most are armed with the reliable 7.62 mm Mosin-Nagant M1891, while one has the equally unreliable AVS-36 automatic rifle. 
Their grenades are long gone so the use of Molotov Cocktails will have to suffice.
These are plastic pieces I put together and painted this week.

Female Security Rules in the Dystopian Future

When things hit the fan call in the best security team you can-Shakil and Onshhot.
 
In the Dystopian Future the niceties don't count for much, so these women take down their opponents hard and fast.
Those who choose to fight, will never make that mistake again as Shakil and Onshhot are heavily armed and armored.
Both are plastic pieces I painted this month.

When the Wounded Call the Medic Comes

 

When a wounded warrior calls "MEDIC" it falls upon that brave group of medically trained soldiers come to their aid. No matter the army, wounded come in all weather and medics treat those in need as this Soviet medic is.

A frozen street becomes a makeshift medical facility. 
Treatment is the best possible under the circumstances.
The tired medic has no time to clean his clothes before he must move to the next suffering soldier.
This is a metal piece I finished painting today.

Exotic Dancer or Fighter

In the Dystopian Future, "Punkin Danna" professional Exotic Dancer, always packs serious firepower for those dangerous unruly times during or after performances.
 
An Uzi and 9mm pistol allow her to handle even the most serious situations. 
When things calm down, she relaxes and practices her next routine.
Pumkin is a plastic piece I painted last week.

Sacred Fire-Daemons Worst Enemy

Deamon Hunter Kstry Brn-Kmi knows both the deadly effect and danger of using "Sacred Fire" against daemons in the Kingdom of Terre de Betes.
 
One well-placed attack can destroy the daemons defensive aura leaving them open to a physical attack to finish them off.
But even then, daemons are dangerous until put down for good. The scarf Kstry wears on the right side of her face coves the scars from a battle with a daemon.
Kstry is a plastic piece I painted this week.
