Title: Here is the news - where are they?
Post by: Wulf on 20 April 2015, 10:14:45 AM
I'm looking for something that would look like a camera crew & reporter in 10mm scale, for use with the 'Riot!' rules.

I think I asked this before, but I'm hoping for an update  :D

I presume you're looking for something like this?

Don't think there's anything in the Pendraken ranges that are exactly that.

The Sci-fi Civilians are probably the best bet for the reporter.

A modern trooper with a shoulder launched missile might be convertable to a cameraman.

Radio-operator with added boom mike for sound engineer?

Best I can come up with, any help?

That's exactly what I'm looking for, and this is the Non-Pendraken forum, so... give me a clue, please???

It's one of hundreds of random reference pictures I have for projects long abandoned and long forgotten :)

I have a vague memory that it's the Britannia Miniatures 20mm TV crew but I may be entirely misremembering.

Oh, 20mm, that explains why they look so detailed...

Thanks, though, good reference shot.

I had a look on a couple of other 10mm sites but couldn't see anything. Did discover a stunning 42mm early Renaissance range on Irregular though.

I reckon you could convert a decent camera out of a 28mm hand bolter  :-\

I was thinking you could snip bits off and glue bits on to this to make a cameraman.

Add a wireless mike to the right hand of the figure on the left here, for the reporter

Replace this guy's rifle with a boom mike
