It's Criminal!

Following on from painting the police, it made perfect sense to paint some opposition for them. The figures below are those, completed a week ago.

More Men in Black

Not criminals, these are actually FBI men from The Assault Group that I painted as Men in Black because they will go very well with the Copplestone Men in Black I already own. Lovely castings and highly recommended.

"This is a stick-up!"

Crooked Dice's criminal gang are some of the nicest figures of masked raiders you're likely to come across. I love their sawn-off shotguns.

"I only asked you to blow the bloody doors off!"

More Crooked Dice figures. These are The Italian Job (the drivers left and centre) and Hugo Solomon with a Michael Caine-like head transplanted. I do have two mini coopers as well and should have put them in the photo.

Terrorists

Some more useful bad guys. Five of these are from The Assault Group, but one odd one out should have actually been in the drug cartel photos below; I think he suits this gang better.

"Yo"

Five Yardie Rastas from Wargames Foundry's Street Violence range. These are big chaps compared to the others, but painted up beautifully. Their dog is from Crooked Dice.

Half a cartel

The other half of the cartel

A selection of nice figures from Tiny Terrain which I belioeve are no longer available. These were bought ages ago to be a sort of drug cartel opposition to the A Team. A mixed bag in terms of quality, in my opinion. Some are lovely (the Mexican in the vest, and the priest, for example) while others are quite frankly a bit weird when you look at them closely. But they will be fine on the gaming table.

Armed geezers

Four armed geezers and a northern detective, far right (who has somehow got himself mixed up with those on the wrong side of the law). Characterful (if short) figures from Killer B Games' Shut It! range.

Some civilians

As I have said before, you can never have too many bystander and civilian figures. These chaps from Killer B are quite excellent.

A few more miscellaneous civilians

And finally, four more civilians. Left to right: two football hooligans - AGGRO Miniatures from Ainsty Castings; another Killer B chap; and an odd figure which I think is from Blue Moon who appears to be a teacher - and will therefore probably work well with the Girls of Not St Trinian's which are some way further down my painting queue.

Next on the painting table: military miscellanea.
