What happened?

It's been a month since my last post and I've been trying desperately to scape together a reasonable showing for March but last months seven miniatures and four posts this month I have a grand total of two miniatures and they're not even Genestealer cultists.

First up a bit of heavy support for my Citi-Def  squad, Private Sponge and his Heavy Spit Gun

Ready for business
He will be providing plenty of covering fire for the rest of the squad.  I like the miniature but he was quite frankly a nightmare of trimming, gluing and random disintegrations.  The stub gun just would not stay attached.

Assembly problems
In the end a poorly concealed pin followed by plenty of padding with greenstuff seems to have done the trick.  The handle join remains a bit skewed but to be honest at that point I was just happy it stayed attached, especially as subsequently I managed to drill through his foot when attaching him to the base.

From the rear
Next up is another addition to my Rogues Gallery, Dredds Clone brother Rico and not the Armand Assante movie version, this one is complete with Titan treatment.
Rico Dredd
Instantly recognizable as the Mike McMahon original  as he appeared in "The Return of Rico" in 1977. (It's all in wikipedia)

Go for your gun Joe
I really need to get Judge painted up so that a proper shoot out can be held.
