Hope your gaming is going to plan as I can assure you that mine is not. The Old Glory UK Ripper set has still not arrived so although I am now all painted up with Holmes and Watson, Ripper and Police the main event....ie The Girls are a no show! I do have a couple of 28mm ladies but they are just not slutty enough...I am getting an insight into a film directors work here!
Oh well, maybe they will turn up next week, in the meantime I can build another 28mm slum terrace to cheer myself up. Who knows I may even splash out on the Empire of the Dead rulebook...oh and the Osprey one...choices, choices.
Barrow in Furness is a treasure of mad Victorian buildings, this is the old fire station, a lot of inspiration for Steampunk games. I will post a picture of a few more....the Conservative club looks like it has been pulled right out of a novel!
Thanks for looking. keep blogging!
Given that the wild west is the same period (or very close) you might also look at some saloon girls. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteThats a good idea! Bismark described Barrow in Furness as "The last frontier town in Europe" I dont think that it was meant as a compliment either!
ReplyDeleteWithout that "28mm" in your post title...you might have garnered unwanted comments in reply to your blog!
ReplyDeleteWell there is a title to grab the imagination!
