Pulp City

Iron Train arrives!

Sculpted by Edgar Skomorowski (Degra), he is hell of a combat monster, his survival skills yet unmatched in Pulp City.
I love the way Degra captured the XIX century feel and the age of the Supreme.
Enjoy! For Christmas, we'll have Nuke and then Red Riding Hoodoo!

not fond of this release, sorry
don't really like the sculpt (just a personal opinion) and imo it does not fit the rest of stuff you've presented .

when i read iron train arrives i was really curious to see how did you guys would pull that off, unfortunatly I think concept wise looks like a iron barrel with space marines powerfists and powerarmor legs, and the face seems very wrong for this concept also... would be great to see a head with train driver googles and with a big cigar and unshaved... like a bad @ss train driver

as for me I'd like to paint such junky-character:
lots of metal and not much flesh is what I like ^^

Not my personal favorite, and I think this one would look much better in dirty metallics than in NMM. It seems to be one of the sculpts which are difficult to photograph as they're not flat enough...

I also expected something else, something closer to what Navarro described. This one is nice, but too close to what I've already seen from Privateer Press

You can be among the first ones to paint him in dirty metallics, just let me know

Funny enough, most of the people that comment on the mini say "Perfect for Dead Land or Weird War" and that is the crazy XIX century/Jules Verne look Degra, me and my artist wanted to summon.
Off course the armor may cry to some Space Marines! and to some the chimneys Warmachine!.

The truth is that the idea behind the Pulp City line is to make it so super-heroically diverse that all of us will have at least one "I love it" and one "I hate it".

Bio diversity is what I like

thats a very positive thing trying to aim to diversity in your line, this way you have more flexibility to do lots of diferent things... Also i dont "hate" this last one hihihi I just imagined a lot diferent thats all... one thing I can tell you, do some Bugs and i will LOVE it!

that's a great way to go - give everybody what they like the most. and the pulp genre is so broad that you can put most subjects into it, so your choice is really good. well planned, Morf, well planned I say!

so far I haven't seen my 'hated' mini yet, but I think I've already seen a possible favorite

Thanks,
for fans of ethnic chicks dressed up in sexy bandages, carrying voodoo dolls, we got Red Riding Hoodoo coming up.
For fans of super female spy/assassins, we got Twilight. actually, I do think it is one of the best miniatures Gael had done.
For fans of super buff German superheroes in spandex, we got Solar.

For fans of bugs... well, that will have to wait a little bit

Keep your eyes peeled and thumbs up for Pulp City.
Btw, as Rob from Darkson Designs has already mentioned it, we'll most likely have a little crossover between AE-WWII and Pulp City.
Nothing better than super Heroes thrashing nazis!
