When I posted the WIP for Ronnie a comment was passed by someone who had spent too much time and money in The Pink Pussy Cat Club as they couldn’t distinguish between an act they had seen there and a poor hippo trembling with fear and hiding behind the banner.
For them a young lady from the Seamstress Guild can be seen below so they will recognise the difference in future.
NOTE – due to adult content not to be viewed by under 18s – (difficult to make and paint as I had to close my eyes at all times)
While some of us are closing our eyes for the next few centimetres in answer to Alleton the metal started as silver and turned to gold halfway through painting so I’m not quite sure what I did but I think the main effect was due to adding some plain white to lower the yellow tone of the gold.
Under 18s can open their eyes now.
The young lady above is very shy and so usually has two work colleagues to accompany her on her travels.
They are all currently touring foreign parts with
Mr Burleigh's Explorer & Expedition ForceAs some of you will know, Mr Burleigh is one half of the arms manufacturing firm of Burleigh and Stronginthearm. Pors Stronginthearm is considered the brains behind the firm and Mr B prefers the hands on approach and has set up an
Explorer and Expeditionary Force* to field test new equipment. His troops are shown here testing a development of the Hershebian 12 shot repeating crossbow. His own weapon is the early stages of a larger project based on the Hershebian, a variant known as the LandLongXbow which has a much increased range. Currently there is a problem with repeating mechanism but the large heavy bolts do have armour-piercing capabilities. He is also using this opportunity to test a new type of armour created by one of his employees but as he's said many times "It'll never replace steel, Kev, son of Lars".
*Expeditionary Force – As used by the armies of all civilised countries in every universe – they travel to quaint, exotic, distant and remote places, meet and marvel at strange, exciting and unusual people, then shoot them!
*Explorer – they have recently had to change their name due to Vetinari’s decree that explorers do not in fact find new lands – the indigenous troll, dwarf etc. peoples of these lands have never lost them.
