Hello!

    Back to posting again, this time a figure that I finished not long ago. I have a few of these finished that I'll be posting soon-ish or as soon as I take photos of them. Not much too say here other than this is basically a figure that was born of the spare pats pile and that he's another addition to a growing number of mercenaries and police of my ongoing dystopic stuff.

SFPD - SAP

    Back when the city of San Felipe was growing skywards and roads appeared and disappeared under the whims of developers the SFPD started to notice a growing problem. With roads disappearing under the sprawling development of large scale corporate buildings, massive housing complexes and sometimes pointless buildings whose main purpose was to showcase power and wealth the SFPD was left with a labyrintine city of dead ends, abandoned roads and almost innacessible areas unless you managed to land a crew on a nearby building to patrol and respond to police calls to that end the SFPD did what the government had always done up to that point, seek a private contractor who was willing to provide a police response to those areas in exchange for federal credits and further expansion opportunities. And so the Special Air Patrol was born, owned by Leviathan Private Security and Specialized Response Teams, most commonly known simply as L&S the S.A.P provides patrolling, quick response and extraction too the SFPD, it also responds to police calls and works with the SFPD Intelligence department as an independent reviewer of data and crime scenes. Perhaps the most interesting thing about the SAP is that the average San Felipe citizen has a positive view of the SAP and it's members, this is in all likelyhood due to the fact the SAP does not intervene with citizens, the sap's only job is to patrol and report to the SFPD.

And that would be all for today, now I return to plot, I mean to como up with more things and perhaps take more photos, so for now stay safe out there and keep having fun.

Interesting and plausible "near future" backstory.

Fantastic setting, and a realistic figure!

Great Story and fantastic character. The shots in the red light are very atmospheric. Thanks for showing.

Another interesting backstory for a pretty cool looking figure. So imaginative.

Nice to see another entry in your series. What a seemingly sinister look for a positive character. Smile Works beautifully on its own and with this very nice diorama. I wonder if he is going to investigate the apparent disappearance of "El Tunel." Smile

Really likeing this guy, absolute anonymity behind that helmet, and I also think he has some kind if disturbing voice scrambler. Love how your worldbuilding again has these detailed confusing chaotic concepts of authority handed over to companies.

And while it is said these guys might not be that bad and leave the citizens alone, I had to think of them randomly harassing people.
Also had to think of the Shoretroopers in Andor in that one surreal sequence:
Andor Episode 7 spoilers:

Oh and I wonder if San  Felipe has grown into the pacific?
Btw, here a very video about dystopic/futuristic/brutalist architecture.

Thanks Davidd! all is possible, though hopefully not.

Thanks Ephiane! The red lightining was a last minute decision after not finding the fully lit ones that interesting.

Thanks Gubernator!, I wasn't thinking how the atmosphere was going to change with the lighning or how the figure does look rather sinister but I guess its part of the world, my first police man also looked rather sinister.

Thanks Ovy! I think that complete silence is perhaps more disturbing than noise, having someone like that guy knock on your door without producing a sound is probably unerving, seeing them gesturing and standing around seemingly in silence also, it would be a very interesting contrast between the standard SFPD radio chattter and the SAP's complete silence.

I have though about San Felipe a lot, I've drawn some inspiration from many places locally and then turned them to 11. Places such as El Cotto and Barrio Obrero and the overal decay of my own home town from prosperous business filled streets to close to empty run down buildings. I would say San Felipe is a mixture of building styles much like my real home is, I can walk downtown and see buildings from the time the town was founded and then see buildings from the 50's and 2000's just steps away. And that video is great, I'm a sucker for architecture videos.
