Pulp!

I got a very nice package in the mail today; Bob Murch of Pulp Figures had a contest on his Facebook page and I was fortunate enough to win a free pack with my next order.  Naturally, it was time to make an order! Not having any particular project in mind, I grabbed a few packs I'd had my eye on for a while and shot Bob an email letting him know what my choice was for free pack. 


I opted for:

  • Upper-Crust Swells, from the Gangland Justice range
  • Sinister Spies, from the Personalities range (which includes likenesses of Sidney Greenstreet and Peter Lorre!)
  • Rugged Sons of Empire, more Personalities (fabulously British ones, in this case)
  • Count Casimir's Trans-Siberian Renegades, another set of Personalities, this time a bulky Russian count, his family and entourage.
Still no real plans for these, except possibly as palate-cleansers between other projects (or units of other projects).  I've been a huge fan of Bob's sculpting style for years now, with my first introduction to his work being RAFM's line of Cthulhu miniatures.  I really like the clean lines of his sculpts, the expression and animation in each one and the little details - monocles, cigars, the row of medals across Count Casimir's chest.  Beautiful work.
