Duck Tales pt.1 - AI edition

 

Something a bit left field - some Terminator style ducklings.

One of the things about being old is that you forget about things you've bought and hoarded away years previously - these being a good point in case. Back in the murky days of the past, when Ebay was just an auction site filled with normal folk and not companies, I picked up some rather random figures.

These are part of a small line of Sci-Fi ducks or ducklings. They only stand about 15mm tall so I'm labelling them as ducklings for the sake of my Critters project. I'm pretty sure the seller was also the sculptor but other than that I have no other details. I have a couple of sets of the fleshed infantry as well which are currently being bathed in IPA for a repaint.

If anyone recognises these I'd be very grateful for some extra details...

You Drive Me Ape (You Big Gorillas)

 Finally - the 4 Critter Commando Gorillas!

A Motley Crew

 

The last of my Blind Beggar critters: A Hare, Vole, Cat and Mystic Hedgehog.

I really enjoyed painting these 4 individuals up. The look on the hare's face reminded me of Hartley Hare from 1970 kids TV so I copied his fur colour. The cat's fur loosely copies my our cat's (and her pink nose!). They'll make great characters to drop into a squad.

Raging Rabbits

Back to the Critters again, and the set of Critter Commando Rabbits

These sat for a good while due to the old palette indecision, what with their "street" styling of backward cap, sweat top, shorts and high tops with some armour. The most re-done area though in the end was the eyes, as they are wide open on the sculpts. All done now though in a they are how they're sculpted way. The power armoured figure is definitely my favourite though.
