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.

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.
