FIRE UP THE QUATTRO

 Got an Audi Quattro From Kore Aeronautics Via Chris at Sally 4th.

Its a 3d resin print, so I gave it a wash & a quick rub down all over 😏 before applying any paint.

Then just painted it red!





The Number plate is a bit of plastic with a paper printed number plate glued on

Gene Hunt & Alex Drake For Pulp Alley

 The next Pulp Alley games day is going to be Detective Duos, so I thought that I would like to do Gene Hunt & Alex Drake from The Ashes to Ashes TV series.

Problem was no-one makes the 80's version of Gene Hunt or an Alex Drake, so I looked at whats available & went with the Geezers Shut It range of figures from Killer B Games.

They have the 70's version of Hunt & a Female Figure called 'Sporty Girl' which I thought would be a good donor figure

Gene Hunt & Sporty Girl from the Killer B Games Website


I had found the picture above online & decided to try to make the Killer B Games Miniatures 
look like the characters in the picture!

Gene Hunt was the easiest to convert as all he needed was the tie, the lapels on the coat & shirt trimming down to be a bit more 80's. 
I also had to lengthen the coat & add a belt, I did this with some Brown Stuff & a bit of Green stuff to tidy it up.


The 'Sporty Girl was more of a challenge. The edges of the shorts needed trimming off to make them look like the jeans.Then the top of the socks needed trimming back & a trainer details cleaning off so that I could make them look like the boots.
The bottom of Her hair also had to be cut back as well & the hand on the hip, detached from the hip.
The next Job was making the leather Jacket, this I fashioned from Green Stuff, followed by Green Stuffing some Hair.



Then it was a case of basing them & Flinging paint at them.

I also picked up a Policeman with Truncheon to use a Level 1 Backup, but I didnt do any converting to this figure just painted it up.


 Overall I'm happy with how they came out.
