Six More Steampunk figures.

I painted these six a while ago, but didn't varnish them, due to the humidity. I put them in a box for safe keeping and only remembered them yesterday. So, here they are varnished and photographed.

First, Professor Prospero, Criminal Mastermind and his Arch-Nemesis, Sir Henry Huntley-Palmer.

Professor Prospero is a man of great intellect and few moral scruples. His interests include making huge amounts of money, outsmarting the minions of Laura Norder and making even more money. His fingers are in many pies; drug smuggling, white slavery, art theft, forgery, blackmail and espionage are only the most common of his criminal activities. He is often found working for Foreign Government Agencies and Secret Shadowy Powers. The Professor's preferred weapon is his sword stick, but he is also a Master of Mesmerism and other Arcane Talents.

Sir Henry Huntley-Palmer, late of the 10th (The Prince of Wales's Own) Royal Hussars, is a man of huge physical strength, which exceeds his intellectual prowess, and much personal charm. His friends tend to think of him as a clubbable stout chap, always worth having on one's side in a scrap but hardly the book-reading aesthete. His favourite weapon is the fearsome seven-barrelled Nock Gun. A founder member of The Adventurer's Society of Pall Mall, Sir Henry is descended from the famous 18th century government agent and soldier Sir William Huntley-Palmer, and is the younger brother of the diplomat and Foreign Office mandarin Sir Arthur Huntley-Palmer. Sir Henry's father, Lt. Col Henry Huntley-Palmer (b.1801 d.1889) was former British Military attaché to Syldavia in the 1850s.

Next, here are four more Agents of a Secret Shadowy Power. The first two are equipped with some long-range firepower. The one on the right has a Nock Gun and his companion is equipped with some kind of experimental gun for firing explosive or gas grenades.

And finally, here are two more Agents with the same kind of pistols and bombs as their comrades I painted a while back.

I think that these Shadowy Agents will end up carrying out the Nefarious Schemes and Damnable Stratagems of Professor Prospero most of the time.

These figures are all from the excellent Ironclad Miniatures Victorian Sci Fi and Steampunk range and will be used for games of In Her Majesty's Name.
