Kronos 2000x Golgo Island Miniature

Here is the final Golgo Island miniature that I based and primed with the group featured in my last post:  Kronos 2000x.  (He's found in the Streetfighters II pack.)

The Golgo Island rules and miniatures are inspired by b-movies, and despite a different looking "official" paint job, I got a Billy Blanks circa the late 80s/early 90s vibe from this figure.  So that's how I painted it.  My feelings were confirmed, when after finishing the figure, I watched the Billy Blanks movie, TC 2000.

What's interesting is that watching the movie made me realize that Mouloud Nagasaki from my last post was clearly inspired by the film's villain, Niki Picasso, played by Jalal Merhi.  I had no idea.

Fun stuff, but that's it for Golgo Island figs for the time being. Stay tuned.

Golgo Island City Scum Part 3

I've finished the fourth and final figure from the Golgo Island City Scum pack, Mouloud Nagasaki.

Not sure why I went with a blue beret.  Maybe I was thinking of this?

Anyway, here's the whole group all together.

I also managed to paint up this little figure, Safari Kirk, also from Golgo Island.  He's a pretty crudely sculpted and strangely short figure, but I figured he might be a good character to confront my Sleestaks or Apemen at some point.  Meh.

I've got one more Golgo Island dystopian-future-streetfighter-type figure based and primed that I'll be painting next and after that, probably something totally different from the lead pile, who knows?  Stay tuned.

Golgo Island City Scum Part 2

Here is another figure from the Golgo Island City Scum pack that I started in my last post.  The official name for this character is Ogami Cartman.  He looks a bit less post-apocalyptic than the last two but that's fine. 

 

As I painted him I thought of him wearing an old sheepskin-lined denim jacket.  Kinda like this one:

 I'm mostly happy with him, and will be posting the last figure from the pack soon.  Stay tuned.

Post Apocalypse Thugs - aka Golgo Island City Scum part 1

Painted two post-apocalypse-looking thugs, who are actually Gaylord Matteoti and Rolf Jaxxon, from the Golgo Island City Scum Pack.

Here is Gaylord...

 

 I tried to give him "crazy eyes."

 And Rolf...

I'll be painting up the other two lawless scumbags from the pack for my next post.  Stay Tuned!
