ALLSWELL, USA (or UK?) Crooked Dice Housekeeper with Bombshell appliances

The Housekeeper from Crooked Dice's Island Priests set. I think it's based on a British TV show but not one I'm familiar with. A nice lady with a pot of tea. The sculpt came with a hand holding a mug, but--being a chump--I lost it. The Bits Box delivered a backup hand, though.

A cozy home with all the modern conveniences. (Stove, fridge, and washer/dryer set are from Bombshell's galley and rec room set; table and chairs from Eureka.)

Left the burner on? No, just got it good and hot for the soup. Guests are coming over for tea and gossip!

Who has been up to what? and who's been seen with whom? you simply won't BELIEVE what Myrtle said to me the other day...etc.
Tabletop advice: In your investigative RPGs, never discount the information-gathering power of curious homemakers!

Featuring 50235, Edna, as the oldest and most cantankerous of the neighborhood gossips, a Pulp Figure detective with binoculars, and a young journalist from Cold War Minis.

"Will you not have a nice cup of tea then? Ah gwan!" Mrs Doyle the housekeeper for the Craggy Island priests in "Father Ted" British sitcom set in Ireland with an Irish cast and IMO one of the funniest shows ever. I love what you've done with her and I adore your whole concept - the sets are incredible.

Thank you for the reference! I'll have to check it out. Appreciate the kind words--and fun fact re: the pictures on the wall, they are miniature photographs of miniature dioramas!

I agree...very nice freehand. She actually kind of reminds me of my grandmother (so...homerun, I guess). 

I also love the color on the fridge. It's 100% dead-on.

That's how I measure success! She has that Gran/Auntie energy. And the Bombshell fridge is a wonderful little terrain piece.

They are obviously all secret agents!

Oh, this is canon now! Love it!

 

Thank you all for the kind words! Hope you can also enjoy a nice cuppa with my best wishes.
