25mm Eureka Miniatures - Pax Limpopo - Pig Tickler

 These were completed in 2003 when I had posted them (or shots like them) on Cool Mini or Not. From time to time, I like to pull all my content into one place, and this is another such effort. There's quite a bit out there not represented here.

These particular entries are from a small range for an even smaller arena game from Eureka Miniatures called Pig Tickler. The recent attention given to Osprey's Hairfoot Jousting reminded me of it.

There is a recurring thread on TMP that asks if one is getting better as a painter or worse as one ages. As I look at these, I fear may be getting worse! 

This is the referee model

This one was labeled "Lancer PFC Jim Jenkins"






The mechanical pig what must be tickled -- or pierced with the lance 


Stoker #2 "You get two of these blokes in Eureka's Pig Tickler game . . . they are there to simply cause chaos amongst the lancers and to keep the mechanical pig in operation -though the rules suggest that there's only one in the game. ah well."

Altogether now! Quite a big loss of fidelity here in the amalgamation.
