Lastly, a relatively new-ish Batman villain, THE\u00a0Ventriloquist (and Scarface). This miniature was repainted completely, but I forgot to take a “before” picture.<\/p>\n
The Ventriloquist (and Scarface)\u00a0is pretty dumb, even for Batman’s rogue’s gallery.\u00a0The Ventriloquist himself\u00a0is a mild-mannered milquetoast; it’s Scarface, the dummy,\u00a0who is the real ruthless bad guy. From the DC wiki:<\/p>\n\n\n

I find him annoying because Scarface can’t pronounce the letter “B” (on account of the Ventriloquist not moving his lips), so he substitutes a “G” sound. This gets old pretty fast, especially when you’re reading speech balloons. “Let’s rog the gank, boys! And watch out for the Gatman!” Ugh.<\/div>\n

Anyway, that wraps up Movember…I’m still mulling over\u00a0a project for December. Watch this space!<\/div>\n

As Movember draws to a close, I have officially painted all of my pulp miniatures! For this last installment, I present some ventriloquists! Technically, only ONE of these is a pulp miniature…yet when painting him, I was surprised to find that I had\u00a0two more ventriloquists in 28mm! It’s an odd genre of miniature to own,\u00a0after […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,10,31,25,6],"tags":[77,28,48],"class_list":["post-2905","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-miniatures","category-pulp","category-repaints","category-super-heroes","category-zombies","tag-black-army-productions","tag-heroclix","tag-zombies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2905","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2905"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2905\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2910,"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2905\/revisions\/2910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2905"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2905"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/angrypiper.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2905"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
