From PaulSS: [Lair of the Great Beast] Parisienne Mob - and Bob (75pts)

 

The past few weeks have been given over to packing for our impending move back to the UK, but there is time for one last entry before the challenge draws to a close.

Lair of the Great Beast: Yes, we know the map says ‘ Lair of the Spider’, but the spider was forced out by several things which are monstrous and nightmarish, terrifying and humongous.  Shhhh…. If you’re very quiet, they may not notice we’re here… Do up a figure describing one of these great beasties.

Do not provoke the Parisienne Mob, waking this beast will result in carnage on a scale never before seen.

This is a great collection of figures from the Eureka Miniatures French Mob set.

This beast is certainly angry about something, cake maybe? You can even furnish them with Guillotine if you so desire.

There's bags of character in this set, the knitting crones, the beefy armed potato saleswoman, the child on his fathers shoulders and a trio of veterans.

Provoking this beast is ill advised!

Also, this is Bob Wainwright, Bob's not entirely sure why he is here, but there are wheels to be made so he's going to make them.

Bob's left over from the set that included the armourers I did earlier in the challenge. Also from Eureka Miniatures.

It's traditional to do a round up of the figures you painted over the challenge, so, they are all* included in this photo ;) 

(*Not quite true, these figures in this entry are going to be bubble wrapped and put in one of the final boxes to be sealed)

Our container comes on Tuesday.

Ten 28mm figures, plus 5pts combined for the "saw horse" and child  and the location bonus will add 75 points to my total.

I've tagged Sarah the Sorceress for this post two as four of the nine mob members fall into the category

28mm Napoleonics Duel Totalizer: 28 mounted, 152 foot, 3 guns, 1 boat.

I'm very happy with my total of approximately 1693 points, I never thought that I'd be able to prepare for the move and get so much done. 

It would have been great to have completed all the Chambers of Challenge location but, it was clear these past few weeks I was never going to get done "The Hall of Heroes", "Graveyard Beach" and finally present tribute at "The Altar of the Snow Lord" with all the packing that needed to be done.
