Willie's adventures continue....

"Well I know the Munrovian HQ must be some where around here"... Willie has been dropped off by PO couriers close to his next stop, Gunner HQ. However due to a sat nav malfunction, he is close but not at the designated RV point.



Setting down his pack he consults his trust VAM map.

"Right.. I'm a highly trained Agent of BAM.. let's get my bearings here..."



"Well at least its not Dragon Island..." Thinks Wille. "OK , I can see I'm at least in the garden Zone , probably sector 4 or 5 . The lawn and shed should be close by...Let's get going..once I'm in RT range I'll see if I can tap into their Perimeter Net."



Shouldering his pack, picking up his guitar he sets off to navigate the border of Munrovia..




As he sets off through the bush.. hear hears a commotion ahead....low voices..talking with Menace..



" Talk now Munrovian Dog or you and she will go the same way as your colleague...."

He rounds the corner and....




"Talk Now .. tell us your mission or she will die !"



"Tell him nothing Scout Lamb- remember you are one of Zabalata's Scouts ! "







What will happen next ?

Yay Willie B. made it (well nearly) to GM HQ, and what on earth has he stumbled upon??? One thing I know for sure, he will never walk away from a fight or even not aid a fellow vam or female agent in distress

Top work Steve, really enjoyed it

Oh dear, oh Willie wanted was to make his way to Gunner HQ with out any trouble but sadly he’s stumbled across a capture and gunpoint. What is our highly trained Agent of BAM is going to do next mmmmmm. Guess we’ll have to wait and see.

These are really exciting pictures you’v started us off with Willie B Back visiting your HQ Gunner.

Brilliant stuff Gunner

Thanks guys...

Sorry Wille took so long check in...hopefully the rain will keep off to see if we can complete the story

Don't tell me! Hermes....I bet they dumped him behind the bins or chucked him over the side gate!

Well that's him sorted as far as drinking Atomic Ale and/or perving at Phicen females goes but what's he going to do to help those poor souls held captive by the evil Dragonians??

Great stuff gunner .....some nice shots in there ...
I particularly like the last one..

Thanks guys ...sadly the rain made an appearence so had to abandon the shoot- hopefully I'll be able to re set the scene...

Here are a couple of shots to keep up the dramatic tension...

Earlier....



"So..you think you can evade the Red Claws do you agent Laura ?...Your Mission to steal the battle plans has come to nothing... Your RV with the Zabaleta Scouts was never going to work.."



Agent Laura: "Do your worst Xhorax ..We will never betray Munrovia..."

Scout Lamb: "Yeah screw you baldy..Commander Zaba will hunt you down.."

fantastic photo's just wish I could read the story

Good thing he brought his guitar...but how he plans to serenade Agent Laura after clubbing the Xhorax with it, I don't know...

or perhaps he plans to lull the Dragonians to sleep with a lullaby?

sorry, I'm sure Willie can take those Dragonians bare handed if necessary!

Great start to the adventure. Excellent photography, great figures and good story!!!

More great photos!, it looks as if Willie B. has come across more than just a welcome wagon!

Tense situation!

I don't see any way out, or at least, not entirely. With all those guns pointed at them, things look bleak for the prisoners.

Dave... I hope not but I agree it does look like a desperate situation...



Wille pulls back..." Six of the blighters... I can't just go at them..but time is of the essence.."



"Talk ! Talk now ! or he will be die ...and then I will let my men do with you what they wish !!"



Willie fumbles in his pack..."I can't just bash 'em with my guitar... I'll have to use my trusty Lebel.."



"Six shots , six of them with Semi-Automatic rifles...I'll have to be good . BAM HQ is relying on me to show what and Agent of BAM can do.."



Wille moves through the undergrowth to maximise his chance of surprise...



Meanwhile just to East of the unfolding drama is Agent Halle of the Munrovia Amazonia Corp .."Who's the VAM making a move ? " but she realises there is no time to lose..



She signals and her team move up..






Agents Lydia and Sarah take up position."Have you got a good shot Sarah ?"



"I think so Lydia.. so many targets .. which is the right choice ?- Who to save ? Scout Lamb or Agent Laura"



Antiope and Halle make a flanking move...



"Got to make this shot count...We must get the information Laura has



"Thats it ! We have wasted enough time ...your friend dies ! "



Wille bursts through the brush ..."Not so fast chum !"- "look out !" cries Vorg the second in command Dragonian.

So will the plans work ? or will the Dragonians have 5 more Munrovian scalps ?

Its a tough situation for all concerned to be involved in! Willie B. can handle himself, but has he spotted the second advancing team? they have seen him, but do they know if he is friend or foe!! Although, some of the faces look like ex Agents of BAM who have transferred to GM HQ, so there is hope Looking forward to the next installment Steve, fantastic stuff

Yeah, tough calls have to be made...

I've been looking to try and get my females into the plot line.. taken a while -Luckily the transfer policy of the VAM allied HQ's and forces seems to be working and Halle and her crew have been able to establish the Munrovia Amazonian Corp as a key asset in Munrovia's stealth war against the Dragonian and Volgan axis.

Part 3 coming soon...

Fantastic!

Aha! Another squad was in the area and aware of the situation. But will those snipers be quick enough on the trigger to save both prisoners?

And did Willie make the right move by revealing himself? Or should he have opened fire from the bush? Those would have been tough shots with a pistol, and he is not yet aware that he has fire support.

This could get messy... messier!

Lots of excellent action shots and angles in this sequence! And nice weather for an outdoor photo-shoot!

Did you have these sequences written out or storyboarded before setting up the shots? Or does the story come together while you're snapping pix?

Hi Dave

Thanks for the comments.. I take my inspiration from Dean ( aka Rusty Gun) Steve aka SKJ , Dal, Blackbrazen  and all the other great work on the site  

On process . I have a very rough idea sketched out in my head when I go out and then usually its dictated by if I can get the figures to stay in pose - so its a very evolutionary process...and the vignettes and the story evolve when I see the final results &  edit the photos..

It does take a while ...I'm thinking that one shot dio's may be the way forward

The weather is variable today .. raining again right now ...

So ... want to find out what happened next ??



BLAM !!!
The first Red Claw trooper is downed .



Acting in a split second and taking advantage of the commotion caused by Willie’s actions,Agent Laura Grabs Vorgs wrist and starts to wrestle with him.





Acting with the instinct of a highly experienced and trained Zabaltan scout , Lamb launches a punch at the distracted Xhorax.


Xhorax ..spins back…



Meanwhile, the second Red Claw spins to face Willie


Blam ! Blam !

Two shots ring out before he can pull the trigger .



On the right simultaneously, Agent Sarah’s shot takes out Vorg whistling narrowly past Laura.

Laura Spins around to see Scout Lamb and Xhorax in a desperate struggle…


“Lamby !! watch out !”




“Move !! “..Sarah and Lydia move forward to close down the final Red Claw.



Agent Halle and Antiope head to support the action. “Antiope ! look out Enemy right !”





A burst whistles past Antiope



Halle takes aim and lets loose a short burst…





Target eliminated!



Lamb and Xhorax continue to struggle .. Willie can’t get a clean shot .. but he has to take a chance

Blam! Blam! – two shots ring out





Laura and Willie’s eyes meet… “Lamby..Nooooo !”




Laura rushes to Lambs side..



Lamb stares lifelessly back…Laura cannot believe it …Lamby ..gone ?”



Antiope lays a consoling hand on Laura’s shoulder..She realises now the Amazonian code of never developing close relationships has been broken..The training will need to be intensified so this tragedy never happens again..



Sarah takes up a covering position “Lydia is that Jack Salt ? – any hope ?”


Choking back her emotions, Lydia checks for vital signs at Scout Salts unmoving body. ”Nothing Sarah.. this one is for the the Cryochamber..”
Wo betide the next Dragonian Lydia will meet.



“Sgt Back !!- what on earth are you doing here !!?”

“ Agent Halle.. great to see you again …Looks your transfer to GM HQ has gone well.. you have been missed”

“Thank goodness you were here..Welcome to Munrovia..your prompt action saved Agent Laura. How come you are here ?”

“I’m here as part of tour of other HQ’s to gather intel and exchange tactics ..”

“Fantastic- we can catch up later ..there are some other familiar faces from BAM HQ to see again.  Come on .. lets get you to the HQ & Laura's Intel to Major Baker our CO…before the Volgans arrive !"



Willie turns to look at the inconsolable figure of agent Laura…VAM adventures can be tough…He was going to have his wits about him to survive this trip.

Nearly as many a body count as one of my stories
Great camera angles and story ..enjoyed it..
Love the first photo of the last sequence, the guy in the black hat shooting from the bushes....

Wow that was all action packed and lots of firing and fighting going on. I really really enjoyed this part. Looking forward to seeing the next part.

Sadly one too many of the body count.

Great story, Steve, plenty of tense action!!!

Man down! , Willie B will feel bad after losing a fellow vam, but as an trooper of BAM HQ they are trained to act on instinct, Commander Jake would except nothing less. On the upside, the intel was saved as was laura, so he will take that as a win. I just hope that his actions will not course any ill feeling?
After the battle a friendly face wuld have been a welcome relief too, and maybe meeting up with some of his old chums will lift his spirits?
Fantastic stuff Steve! action packed introduction

Superb action photos GM!

Superb action narrative, and so well illustrated too! Very much liked the way you integrated differently sourced figures!
I do envy that very fine coat Willie is wearing!
