Fergee - King of the Big Smelly

Time for some further adventures in my miniature painting.

I've finished up all of my Castle Ravenloft miniatures and have currently branched out into some sci fi.  With that said, you really wouldn't know it from the pictures below!

Anyway, the below mini is from Mongoose Publishing and is from their line of Judge Dredd miniatures.  As you probably guessed from the title, this is Fergee, King of the Big Smelly whom fans of old stony face will recognise as the dimwit who saved Mega City One during the reign of Judge Cal.

For comparison, the professionally painted version can be found here.

And yes, I just copied the colour scheme used by the professionals.  Don't have anywhere near the confidence necessary to start playing around with my own colour schemes yet!


No, he isn't playing baseball...

No, he isn't running away...

Hong Kong Science Museum

Can you believe that in all my time in Hong Kong, I have never actually been to the HK Science Museum?  Not sure why but I just never got round to it.

So it was with great glee that we set about to correct this grievous error a couple of weeks ago.  And naturally, we took the kids with us. 

Wow - the science museum is cool!

Cheese!

All tuckered out after a hard days play.

"But dad, wouldn't it be easier to just blow bubbles?"

Random picture of Gerry - just to prove he was there as well.
