Mini Update

I actually dragged the Hadrons out of the cabinet 'awaiting painting storage queue' last night and slapped them around briefly with the hairy sticks. I had a problem in painting I needed to work out and I *think* I may have resolved it - hopefully! so there may be more progress on these this week back pain (and therefore sitting) permitting.

On other minis I have been looking for some stuff missing since the house move. Particularly some modern zombies.

Zeds. Walkers. The dead. Deaders.

Call them what you will, I need ta lot for an upcoming game. I have finally found 24 under-coated minis, mostly Studio Miniatures with some smattering of Hasslefree, Crocodile Games and Tengu, so work should resume on them soon. especially as I have been catching on watching The Walking dead (which has been ace, by the way) and I have the volume 1 hard-cover of the Walking dead awaiting reading!

  1. Any top tips for painting zeds, I am awful at painting rotting flesh and so forth.

  2. I posted a zed on my other minis blog (Eclectic Gentleman Tabletop Gamer), and used Vallejo green-grey as the base colour, mixing in basic skin tone at 2:1, 1:1, and 1:2 highlights.

  3. You are in for a treat with the Walking Dead hardcover.

    I look forward to seeing your horde progress. Do you think that you will be able to keep your painting style up to the usual standard while painting such a potentially large group of miniatures?

  4. Who knows? I kinda hope so, but may do small batches for extra speed.
