Judgement Day Challenge - Painting Judge Dredd Miniatures

[Darren Richardson]

nice work on all the models so far guys, it's great to see new and old models being used in this project.

Keep it up!

[Mr Saturday]

This week Judge Alexandrov and his Krashnikov 97 carbine join my Sovs, laying down sheets of East Meg 1 justice for the proletariat.



I like this sculpt, the gun has a nice heft to it, though I think he could do just adjusting the strap to take a tad more of the weight. Alexandrov has a little more Dredd-centric base work done, with a smashed Mega City One judge helmet at his feet, (from the Mongoose SJS judge's base). I have three Sovs complete now, not too far from a playable force.

Judgement Day #7: Renegade Robot B0L7



Another renegade construction robot today, something of a companion piece to KNU7 from a few weeks ago.



The scheme also fits in with my sci-fi Construction Crew from my sci-fi non-combatants project.



Somewhat unexpectedly, Renegade Robots have become the second faction for the Dredd setting that I have ready to game with (after MC1 Justice Department). They sort of just appeared to some extent, without me really planning it much.



More photos and the like [url=https://sho3box.wordpress.com/2015/06/08/judgement-day-7-b0l7/]in the blog post[/url]. I think that it will be a flesh and blood MC1 perp next time. Mr Saturday will put up the next update first, next Monday,

Thanks for looking.

This week Judge Borzilov steps forth ready to incinerate those who dare oppose the Dictatorat.



I like this sculpt. He carries the oddest looking flamethower I've ever seen. Those gloves of his must be pretty well insulated. It looks very Carlos Ezquerra, organic and no straight lines anywhere, but to my knowledge he never drew one for the Apocalypse War series. I wanted to give the hint that it gets a lot of use, so I gave it some heat damage with sepia, purple and finally blue washes the closer to the end of the barrel I got. I highlighted the very edge with silver to show where it has burned clean. I also adjusted his legs to suit the base and give him a tad more movement. Borzilov brings me up to four Sov judges, almost ready for play...

Lovely. The East Meg 1 boys are really starting to look like a force now

#9: Benny the Bat-glider



A perp with a batgliding suit and a big moustache today.

Bat-gliding is a common pastime in Mega-City One. *Like many of the earlier sculpts from the Judge Dredd range, this design comes straight from one of the Daily Star strips.



Mega City One is defined less by the Judges than by the behaviour of the citizens and as such models like this sum up the setting rather nicely I think.

Mr Saturday will be along tomorrow with his next Judgement Day submission, but in the mean time I thought that I would put up a few photos of the Apocalypse War game that we got played yesterday

Mr Saturday did submit a #10 last week, but he never posted it up here, tut tut

#11 Judge Shaw



With gaming against Mr Saturdays invading East Meg One forces being a thing now, I decided to paint a Judge equipped with one of the iconic weapons used in "The Apocalypse War" storyline, the stub gun.



I rushed the painting a little bit due to other commitments. It bugs me a little, but its adequate.

Oopsies. I did neglect to post, didn't I? Here's Judge Gogol, the tardy East Meg senior judge.



This week I'm throwing up a cheeky submission for Judgement Day. The very tiny Sov satellat. This was originally intended to be an addition to a larger submission, but there you go. I could bore you with various excuses about life annihilating hobby time over the last week or two... so that's pretty much what I'll do.



Taking excuses as read, let's look at the wee satellat. The satellat is most associated with agent Orlock, East Meg One's finest assassin/saboteur/master of espionage, and instigator of the block mania outbreak that preceded the Apocalypse War. This little robot has gotten Orlock out of a couple of scrapes over the years, with a loud BLLLLEEEEEEEE! to warn out approaching danger.



This little fella has already seen action on the tabletop, causing much irritation to Cheetor's Judges in our initial skirmish. Speaking of which, the Sovs are now at league strength. Here's a shot of the whole squad.



There are several more members of the league to be added yet, but it's pretty satisfying getting them to a gaming size force. More (and most likely more than a tiny robot head) Judge Dredd fun from Cheetor next week.

Gaze into the face of
Judgement Day #13, Judge Fear



Deadworlds most well known whipping boy, this model sat in various stages of completion on my painting table for nearly two years.* It was a tangible relief to finish him.



I worked on the rest of my Dark Judges hundreds of painted miniatures ago, back in late 2011.* How I paint is always changing, so it was tricky to try to go back to paint Fear in the same style as the others, but I managed it... eventually.



The figure is unreleased as far as I know.* Although the rest of the Dark Judges have been available from Foundry for years now, Fear was not.* I picked up this model on a trip to Foundry a few years ago: I dont know if it is available for sale.



Somewhat dodgy paint job aside, it really is a personal pleasure to have these four creeps ready for a game.* All together now...
