This weeks entry starts me off in Dante’s ‘Divine Comedy’ with the first circle of the Abyss - Limbo. Introducing these lost figures is our guide from the Gangland Gals set from Pulp Figures. Painted using the reaper brown triad & black glaze, Foundry skin tones, contrast paint base colours with some Foundry highlights.
These figures (ARC Astronauts & Armed ARC Astronauts) from Crooked dice were from picked up in 2020 and cleaned and prepped for painting for a pulp project I started in late 2023. That project was totally derailed by my enthusiastic wandering through the AHPC-IV library in 2024. Only fitting we pull these back from the shelves and put some paint on them for the Limbo entry. Painted using contrast paints for the uniform with TTC and Vallejo paints for other areas. You might have a feeling of Deja vu as you look at the last picture as I bought two of the same set of astronauts in the same purchase. Ah well...
Continuing on with my ACW project, here is another ACW Union infantry regiment - The 115 Indiana Regiment.

Great boys in blue Tom. I also painted CSA to break up the blue. Great limbo figures as well.
ReplyDeleteNicely doe Tom, great astronauts, the more I see of crooked dice figures the more I see their attraction and you've showed them off nicely
ReplyDeleteWell Done! Interesting mix o' minis.
ReplyDeleteThanks all. The miniatures from Crooked Dice and Pulp Figures form the highest peaks in my lead mountain range.
ReplyDeleteGreat entries Tom, loving the astronauts and ACW stuff

Splendid mix of figures!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
What a great collection. I really like those spacemen and woman.
ReplyDeleteNothing like an astronaut with a weapon. Especially a rocket launcher. Like, what could go wrong?
ReplyDeleteMore fine work on the ACW "Epic" range too - you have a great colour mix there.
Some excellent brushwork all round!
ReplyDeleteGreat entry, I love the gangland gal!
