More distractions...

It's another HassleFree piece that I think I picked up at  show. It makes me think of the Hancock film where the delinquent super-hero sometimes did good deeds while he was drunk and improperly dressed.

If you are a super-hero called upon in the middle of the night to save lives, why waste time putting on your Lycra suit and cape? Dashing straight out in your Y-fronts could save vital life-or-death seconds.

Distractions

It can get very boring working on 50 Falshies, so I feel this little bit of self indulgence is justified. I'm repainting this model. It used to have Space Marine shoulder pads and was a chapter standard bearer I used to put on the table at the start of 40K games to provoke my opponent.

I tried to paint the base with a disco/Manga or alien bar (a la Star Wars) feel. Not too unhappy for a first try with about 30 seconds of thought and planning!

Mr.Sniketty

OK, this is Mr Sniketty. He is an incredible model, yet from a budget range. (I'll do another post about the supplier, Ramshackle). This mini manages to convey the fear of somebody very menacing under that coat! His lethal blades hide themselves nicely against the folds of his coat, meaning his victims probably let him get very close before realising their fate. He is everything Edward Scissorhands should have been.

On the other hand, he might just be some unfortunate person mechanically augmented with blades for a life of toil. He would be good at topiary, hair cuts, meat preparation and cloth cutting etc. (He would also have to be very careful when going to the lavatory).

To prove a point to somebody about wargaming on a budget, I painted him using some recovered dried-up yellow, silver and black paint. Click on Mr Sniketty for more detailed pics.
