Tactical Miniatures Beat Cops done!

Tonight I finished my last 2 cops from my Tactical Minaitures pack.  I have to say these are great figs, I wish the company had thrived and managed to produce more models but these things happen I suppose.

So all told that pack contributed 2 cops with pistols, 2 with shotgun and 1 with an assault rifle to my collection of figures to act out the opening animation of the Resident Evil 3 video game.

My next addition to the police will be a minor conversion of a Hasslefree figure I got a couple of years ago.

Two more for the R.P.D.

I managed to finish 2 more of my new R.P.D. officers last night.  I've still got 2 more armed with shotguns to paint, hopefully they will be finished tomorrow.

I'm really liking how this Fenrisian Grey looks for their shirts so I think I may got back and repaint the Hasslefree cops I did when I first started the blog.  When this latest batch of cops is done I'll probably get back to work on the next batch of zombies from Studio Miniatures as well.  It looks like I'm back in a zombie kind of mood!

Send more cops!

I'm working on a pack of 5 police officers from Tactical Miniatures to use in my zombie gaming.

This first figure was basically a test to see how a few new paints worked out before painting the rest of the pack.  The trousers are painted Coal Black (P3) while the new colours are the shirt being Fenrisian Grey (GW) and the duty gear being Skavenblight Dinge (GW).  I'm pretty happy with how this guy turned out so I think I'll try to finish the rest of the pack tonight.

Incidentally Tactical Miniatures went out of business over a year ago but Armorcast has acquired the rights to produce their models.

Resident Evil!

This morning I finished touching up my Resident Evil miniatures from Recreational Conflict with a couple of figures from Tactical Miniatures thrown in to round out the S.T.A.R.S. team members.

The Resident Evil series of video games (Resident Evil 2 in particular) are what drew me into the survival horror genre of gaming and films in the first place so my appreciation for them tends to hold through thick and thin and even when I take a break from the series I always seem to find my way back.

Also in this post I'd like to ask all of you for a little help.  I've done fairly well assembling a collection of miniatures to game Resident Evil with but there are 3 characters from the series I've never found suitable models for:
-Enrico Marini (STARS Bravo team leader from Resident Evil & Resident Evil 0)
-Claire Redfield (from Resident Evil 2 & Resident Evil Code Veronica)
-Billy Cohen (from Resident Evil 0)
If any of you could suggest some figures for these 3 characters I would really appreciate it.

Thanks for visiting
