AT-43 Operation Frostbite
This week I was working on the three figures that came with Rackham's AT-43 Operation Frostbite expansion. These were originally pre-painted models and I've pretty much copied those colour schemes except for the female character where I was asked to paint her coat blue instead of orange. Fun to do and turned out quite well I reckon. The pre-paints weren't great but the models underneath are pretty good, much like the other AT-43 figures I've painted in the past.

Brill work once again, crisp and clean!
ReplyDeleteReminds me I've always wanted to run Call of Cthulthu / The Thing based RPG adventure for my former players group.
Never thought of using them for something like that. Perfect explorer types. Not that they're my models though.
DeleteInitially I was hoping to assemble group of models based on Foundry (?) sculpts - there's whole range of Arctica explorers from about XIX 20's.
DeleteBut since there're no RPG players here anymore... =(
I do recall seeing some Foundry explorer types. I think Copplestone did his own too and there might be a nice snow crawler vehicle in the range as well. Any chance you could do a tabletop game with a RPG angle?
DeleteCopplestone, that's it!
DeleteAs for the game - definitely!
I remember we once tried to use minis for battle part of "Steel angels" CoC adventure (the one in the desert with dark young and armored cars) - it was great fun.
Whole rules thing was more narrative than standard wargaming, it's just to make players know exactly what's going on...
...and where's rampaging dark young at the moment ;-)
Love how the minis really stand out after you work your magic on them.
ReplyDeleteThanks, it's quite satisfying taking a less than thrilling pre-paint job and making something of a model.
