I need to book a journey on Sarah's Balloon to O'Grady's Gulch so I present to you all another heroine of 'Mansions of Madness', Carolyn Fern: The Psychologist.
Carolyn is a fairly powerful support character in the game, having the ability to heal the sanity of both other characters and herself. It's a super handy skill, especially in setting where going bananas is a constant threat (if not an inevitability).
The miniature of her is fairly good, only needing a little careful cleanup of mold lines in a few spots. Again, I stuck to the game card art, giving her a blue blouse and red hair. I thought a nice neutral grey would be good for her pencil skirt, with oxblood high boots for a splash of colour.
I think Sarah (and Tamsin!) will especially like Carolyn as she uses her wits to help her fellow investigators and is a hot redhead. :)
This should pip me 5 points and, after a glass of champagne with our lovely aeronaut, allow me to set down on O'Grady's Gulch.
Cheers!
What a lovely redhead she is, Curt. Whilst she may be helpful for curing insanity in the mansions, I sadly fear that she has little hope of curing the insanity of us Challengers.
Just in case anyone is wondering why this is only being scored as 5 points, you only get the 30 bonus points for your first balloon ride.

Gotta love a red head. She's great
ReplyDeleteIndeed, you just have to. Thanks Martin.
DeleteGreat work dude. Man - these figures are making me crave another Cthulhu game...that's a healthy sign, right? Right?
ReplyDeleteDid that plant just move?
Haha! No that was just Frederick. :) I'll bring it out when we're next in Winnipeg.
DeleteLovely looking psychologist!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain!
DeleteAnother creat figure Curt, I believe I’ve played her on occasion. Does she have the spells to repel the sandbagging were-badger?
ReplyDeleteGreat not creat
DeleteThanks Peter. Unfortunately not, I think the only thing that can defeat that abomination is an thrice-blessed Elder Sign. :)
DeleteLady Sarah’s Balloon Service is pleased to have provided a safe and pleasant journey to O’Grady’s Gulch.
ReplyDeleteAs a reminder to all Balloon passengers; Lady Sarah has instituted a Frequent Flyer Programme. Every three flights with the Balloon Service is worth an additional 10 points.
Also, as champagne is traditionally drunk after the completion of a flight, when a challenger posts their female figure and a glass of champagne, Prosecco, sparkling cider ( alcoholic or non -alcoholic) you will gain an extra 5points. Cheers!🥂
I'll get us some Prosecco for the next flight. :) I need the extra points!
DeleteWho doesn't appreciate a hot redhead?
ReplyDeleteYour single figure work is always quite snazzy, and the clear bases are flawless.
Yup, pretty inescapable logic to me.
DeleteThanks Robert, much appreciated.
A very faithful rendition of the card artwork - as always, Curt, your work gives us something to aim for.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kind words, Noel.
DeleteA very nice figure, umm, miniature - nicely done as always Mr C
ReplyDelete:) Thank you Miles.
DeleteBeautiful brushwork and a trip across the island, well done.
ReplyDeleteCheers Stuart!
DeleteAnother lovely entry Curt! I should try that game someday.

Its a good 'un. I think you'd like it.
DeleteVery nice indeed, I'm a bog fan of the Cthulu boardgames too, but we never seem to get around to painting ours so really nice to see them done this well!
ReplyDeleteCracking work Curt! These are pretty nice looking minis for board game stuff!
ReplyDeleteHealing mental injuries? But going mad is half the fun!
