Pallets of Stuff
These are just a couple of things I sculpted for a contest (where I didn't understand what was needed), but they ended up being nice objective markers, anyway. I used them as the markers to develop my Rednecks and Revenuers scenario.
The first one is a still on a pallet. It's broken down into component
parts. While I did grow up in a place where indoor plumbing wasn't a
given and the directions to our farm did include "turn off the paved road",
I'm not sure if these are sufficient components. But I think the piece
has a nice composition.
And it paints up rather nicely with just a few metallic colors for the bits.
This is a little more odd, but again, I think it ends up with a
nice composition. Just a bit of hand sticking out implies what else
lies beneath the tarp, without a lot of detailed sculpting. And I
think the unknown is always a little creepier than blatant shock value.
Again, here it is painted up. Doesn't really require a lot of
colors or detail to make a nice objective marker with a splash
of pinache.
The hand is actually faily large in comparison to the 28mm figure (one of Bob Murch's Sinister Spies). But I think it passes muster, espeically since the hand/arm is not really placed on the board in direct comparison. Also, there's nothing wrong with corpse parts being a bit bloated and blubbery...
So .. the point? Well, these were not particularly hard to sculpt or paint, but they add a lot of character to a game.
