Festive Freebooters

Holiday smugglers
15 mm



Sandy "Claus" Klosowicz and her colleague "Elf" are some of the best smugglers in human space.  While they do work for profit, some of their most legendary runs have been humanitarian missions on behalf of aid and relief organizations.  Their delivery of tons of military-grade peptide bars and medical nanites is believed to have saved thousands during the pirate blockade of Hydra 357 Prime.  Many children, and their parents, at struggling bare-bones colony outposts dream of seeing these folk heroes' freighter landing one day, bringing supplies, food and even small luxuries from the core worlds.

Sandy and Elf are Ion Age figures from Alternative Armies.

Some dropoffs can get a bit hairy...

  1. Hahaha, the shot landing and dispatching goods at planet Jerusalem is quite amusing :) or may I say Towel, home of the freemen.

    Really looks like a towel.

    I really can't get how you manage to put reds and greens side by side and make them look right. It might be you nailed the hue of red and green cause usually this two screw eachother.

    BTW hope you and your fam hace the merriest Xmas!

    1. Actually one of my wife's shirts but yeah. Makes for nice snowdrifts ;) I don't know what makes this red and green work together; it's a "cool" piney green, maybe that makes a difference?

      Thanks, glad you like them! and Feliz Navidad to you too!
