Warlord Games Unboxing - Cadet Judge - 2000 AD - Judge Dredd


Welcome to a long overdue Warlord Games Unboxing. This Cadet Judge is from the Rebellion Publishing: 2000 AD comics & Warlord Games collaboration game for Judge Dredd.

Here are the details of this fantastic kit.

When possible, buy directly from Warlord Games or your local game store - https://us.warlordgames.com/collections/judge-dredd/products/judge-dredd-cadet-judge (Tell them I sent you and that they should sponsor me ha)

Cadet Judge

Potential Judge candidates are usually inducted into the Academy of Law at the tender age of five. Here, they are subject to rigorous academic training in all aspects of the law that governs the North American Mega-Cities. By the end of the process, they have acquired knowledge exceeding those of the most senior lawyers and justice officials of the early 21st century.

In parallel to their academic training, they undergo an intensive physical and mental exercise programme that hones their firearms and close combat skills whilst also preparing them to endure the various injuries and physical hardships that life patrolling the streets will throw at them.

Whilst the life of a cadet is mainly taken up by study and training, if a dire situation or crisis demands the Justice Department deploy more manpower, cadets may be armed and sent out onto the streets, usually as part of a carefully monitored team engaging in fairly low-intensity operations. One highlight of a cadet’s continual assessment is the ‘Hotdog Run’ where a group of cadets accompanied by Senior Judges are sent on patrol in the radioactive hell of the Cursed Earth beyond the Mega-City’s walls.

However, during the Necropolis and Chaos Day incidents, cadets were deployed into hazardous situations typically only handled by a fully qualified Judge. Many cadets performed bravely and well, as befitted their training. Still, the losses incurred had severe future implications for the Justice Department when it struggled to maintain enough qualified Street Judges.

Miniature Monday // Judge Dredd - Uglies in Mega-City One.

It's miniature Monday. Today, I am showcasing a quick and easy paint job. I spent at best 30 minutes on each miniature, so it was really quick and easy. To speed up the painting process I used a lot of contrast paints over a grey primer with white highlighting. The models are from the 1985 Games Workshop miniature line. My goal for these models is to create some sort of citizen crowd to act as cannon fodder or as hindering random terrain features. 

The models are pretty comical, one has a Cube head, one has Pig-like features and the third has pimples. All three are part of the ugly trend started by Otto Sump and they are some of the most unusual citizens of Mega-City One.

The Uglies are citizens who wish to artificially uglify themselves to achieve a unique appearance. Followers use uglification products or body modification to enhance their ugliness or negate their attractiveness.

Origin

Otto Sump, a hideously unattractive person, was chosen to tell his pitiful life story on a talk show. He made such an impression on the viewers that he received a huge cash prize. He used his winnings to found a cosmetics company. However, his skewed sense of beauty meant that he made products that made the user ugly. Sump's celebrity, however, made him a fashion plate. His customers sought to emulate his ugliness, making Sump very wealthy.

Well, that's it for today. I hope you enjoyed this quick and dirty miniature post. Drop me a comment and let me know your thoughts, what company miniatures do you use to represent standard citizens in sci-fi games?

Miniature Monday // Cube Head Ugly for Judge Dredd Miniature Gaming.

Welcome back for another miniature Monday. Today I am showcasing a quick and easy paint job. Spent at best 30 minutes on this and used a lot of contrast paints to get it done. The model itself is a 1985 Games Workshop, Judge Dredd miniature, known as Cube Head. Part of the JD RPG game line, he was number 13 out of 16. My goal for him and a few other models is to create citizen crowds to act as cannon fodder or hindering terrain features. I don't plan on spending much time on these as they are more scene filler than focus, but hopefully fun enough to look at from 3ft.

Here is some background to these unusual citizens of Mega-City One.
