She turned me into a newt

Think I found a theme for a crew to try out Frostgrave. Knights of the round table from Zombicide Black Plague I picked up from Bring & Buy at MOAB along with my converted Tim and his apprentice Miss Did not appear in the movie and a few minions from Reaper

Zombie Survivors progress

In a move unseen by my gaming collection I've actually been playing more Zombicide than istting down painting the thing. I'm not sure if this idea will catch on, or if everyone will give up on the game as soon as I finish painting....

Anyway I'm still working on the survivors 1st before I start tackling the zombie hordes. I've finished up Sheldon (Dave in game) and added Lucas to the mix (custom character) the great Fanboy sculpt from RAFM. Oh and if you were wondering where the Bride and Ash came from. The Bride is also from RAFM's USX Modern Day Heroes line. Ash is from Studio Miniatures Survivors. Must say I'm awful tempted to add their Scrubs doctors and patients zombies to the horde, you know if I didn't already have like 100 or something zombies to paint.







I got the idea from the Zombicide tiles to add some junk to my bases like drink cans made or plastic sprue and I found some tabloid newspapers with zombie headlines and an odd issue of the Onion and scaled them down in Illustrator to about 1cm across and printed out a heap of them to cut out, fold and glue onto bases. With a coat of thin PVA glue I could aslo do washes on them to dirty them up without it soaking into the paper.



















still a lot of work to go

Zombie Hunters - Ash and the Bride

I started my Zombicide survivors with my metal sub in minis. Just got in the mood for painting so started off with the Bride since I kinda thought yellow would be a bit different to work up.

She painted up so quickly using P3 paints and GW washes that I didn't even get WIP shots, she just got done. Ash also painted up very quickly. I'm experimenting with using more washes on the survivors to get them done quickly for game use rather than comp quality. I do kinda want to repaint his pants though, the colour seems a bit too yellow and too drybrushy for my liking.

Gimme Some Sugar, Baby!

Since I got ZOMBICIDE I've been digging through my old pile of lead for the unused zombie hunters I've picked up over the years and never bothered to do anything with such as Not Ash from Studio Miniatures and Not the Bride and Not the chick from Underworld from RAFM as well as Not Buffy from Hasslefree just to see how they compare size wise with the ZOMBICIDE plastic survivors and since it'll be a wait till the stretch goal minis get released.





I'm happy to say despite the slightly bendy PVC plastic the survivors are made from, it is possible to file off the mold lines. I've gotten through cleaning up all of them. Now to prime them. Bye Bye rainbow.
