Unboxing Malifaux - Paul Crockett

"A walk on the wild side..."
The Paul Crockett box contains enough parts for one miniature...namely Paul Crockett. It also contains a stat card for it though there are no upgrade cards.

Paul Crockett
Paul Crockett is an outdoorsman of the highest calibre. he's a skilled tracker and hunter, but he has been known to slip into an almost feral state during some of his hunts. It was during one of these hunts that he slipped up and accidentally murdered a group of fellow outdoorsmen.

Rather than own up to what he did, Paul fled through the Breach and into Malifaux, where he quickly began to make a name for himself as a skilled guide. It was during one of these expeditions that Paul encountered Marcus and single-handedly took down the Arcanist's pet sabertooth Cerberus. Rather than become upset at the creature's death, Marcus applauded Paul's triumph and asked to learn more of the man. The two of them quickly hit it off, each of them respecting each other's ferocity and knowledge of the outdoors.

Paul Crockett - Sprue
The box has one sprue in it as well as the aforementioned cards. Here's pictures of both sides of it.

Paul Crockett - Stat Cards
Stat cards in the official format can now be downloaded from Wargame Vault for a nominal fee from HERE.

Should there be any assembly issues with the model then they will be listed in the appropriate section and you can view larger versions of the smaller pictures or instruction pictures by clicking on them.

Paul Crockett - Instructions

Some General Notes on Assembly
Many of these models contain quite small parts so depending on how dexterous you are you might consider getting yourself some tweezers. Dry-fitting is also always a good idea in case a part needs a tiny bit of extra filing or filling as some of the fits are quite tight. Where the parts on the sprue are quite thin (chains, weapon shafts, cables and the like) then it might be better to remove parts with a sharp scalpel rather than cutters.
Additionally...my own assembly notes are written as I go along so I'd suggest reading them all the way through before starting the assembly process.

Paul Crockett - Assembled
There's actually no need to glue the legs together first as indicated in the instructions as they will slot into the waist individually but either way works. There's a couple of small parts to add to the waist but these have decent enough attachment points. You also need to add the shotgun to the back before the cloak as it wraps around it.

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.
I purchase my miniatures from Leodis Games (Link Below) and can highly recommend them.
Should you ever choose to purchase something based on one of my features or reviews then it would be nice if you could let the company know where the inspiration came from...who knows...they might be grateful to the poor unappreciated blogger who sent you their way...if however I've put you off a product...well...you can keep that info to yourself...
