"I've found a solution for the local teenagers, love..." |
In past Challenges I have mostly ignored the bonus
theme rounds. So far this year, I've stuck with it, but this one was
difficult. Couldn't really find anything too creative, or more
challenging, the time to do much that was creative. But I did find
these two Wargames Foundry sculpts from their "Darkest Africa" range.
How can it be love - "l'amour"? Well, from my point of view, it all
depends on the photo caption...
|
"THAT is an indecent proposal..." |
|
"I repeat, sir, that I'm NOT interested..." |
|
|
"I do so enjoy sport hunting Madhists on the Khartoum battlements dear. The blue Nile is lovely at this time of year..." |
You see? With photo captions, you can just do
whatever you want. Here are a couple more photos of the figures in
question - I believe the lady with the double-barrelled gun is "Mrs.
Capstone", and the chap is "Mr. Poirot" - both 28mm sculpts from
Wargames Foundry.
In
addition to garnering whatever points I can scrape in this bonus round,
I can see these figures playing a part in a pulp game, or even
interesting characters in a Sudan game (or other colonial-themed table
adventure).
Not much more to say, other than happy Valentines everyone!
Awesome work Greg. Though it's not too romantic, I think I like the first caption best. :)
