Ma Tuppence - Rogues and Royalists


This is Ma Tuppence, the cruel leader of my Burrows and Badgers band of Rogues, The Red Toothe.

Statswise, she’ll count as a Black Rat, but I wanted to go with a more Albino look as I wanted her to really stand out from any future rat additions to my Burrows and Badgers Collection.

Her paintjob is a bit fast and dirty as I want to get this warband fully painted and therefore playable (Play with unpainted minis!? Gasp and recoil!).

As with the previously posted Bat sorceress, she has a wee bit of descriptive text that I’ll post up once all of her gang’s members are painted and do a group shot.

(Forgive the pics, these were taken last thing before bed and in a hurry.)





Next up, first work for Zomtober 2018!

  2. Excellent painting and a great miniature. It’s a fun range.
    Play with unpainted? Hardly ever! 😀

    1. Thanks Stew! Yeah, I'm finding it very difficult to resist making an order for the whole remaining lot I like them so much.

  3. Looks excellent Dai, the colour choice for the dress really helps enforce the albino look of the rat

  4. Cracking paint job and love the name. I need to get me some more roguish animals. Rats are high up on the list for the next order though I may sneak mouse in or two.

    1. Thanks Simon. I wanted to create initially two teams - "good guys" and "bad guys", and what makes for a better badguy leader than a Rat?!

    1. Thankyou Sean. Really liking these rules, think it might be worth a game next time you are in the area.

  6. Nice work...

    ...I just struggle with armed animals. I saddens me, for some reason.

    1. I've been reading Redwall by Brian Jacques which the creator of the range was heavily influenced by. A charming kids novel. Am sure you and your girls would like it too!
