Cave Woman conversion update. What if Bettie Page was cast in a 1950s caveman movie...

Update photograph of the Reaper Miniatures Cave Woman miniature that I started back in 2023. Back then, the miniature was solely going to represent a fictional female prehistoric human, but last year I became aware of Bettie Page comic books, which lead to me discovering more about the real-life person and her work. Which saw this miniature having more work done to it, to represent a fictional Bettie Page in a 1950s cave woman movie, or some such nonsense, which could explain her presence in tabletop prehistory games.


Below are two photos from the 12 November 2023 blog post.

Stock miniature - Reaper Miniatures

Ideas for a 1950s comic book secret agent Bettie.


Taking an image of a Bad Squiddo Games WW2 Resistance sculpt from off the Internet, and using a basic computer paint program to make a crude artist's impression of what the miniature could look like with hair bangs, you get the above image. I used this same method when conceptualizing the cave woman miniature before I attempted to sculpt hair bangs onto it.
