Zombicide: WiP Zombies

Evening guys,

Normal update time again, oh how the weeks fly past.

I have something new this weekend as a change to my heavily Infinity themed posts of late. This time its something of a more shambling nature that being some zombicide zombies.

Now Zombicide is a popular game at mine, Nifes and Rictus' normal meet ups so much so that I decided to buy a couple of bozes of the zombie models just to paint. They are very very nice sculpts and in my opinion the best zombie models on the market.

At the minute I have only Toxic an dBezerker zombies, though intend to get a box of standard walkers too. Nife is even twisting my arm to try and get me to pledge towards Zombicide Season 3.................

Anyway onto models, the first 3 are pretty much finished:

 

I'm going for quite basic paint jobs on these guys mainly because they are cannon fodder in game. I am also going for a tongue in cheek approach hence the one fatty being converted to be cosplaying a star trek character. Undead convention goers will provide some inspirations to a few future zombies.

The next batch are all still in various states of progress:

Bezerker Zombies

They have been rather fun going from the pus and goo of the toxic zombies to the hardened skin type armour of the bezerkers. I think I shall be mixing small batches of these in between Infinity models.


Well thats it for now guys, I have 2 order Sergeants very near completion so expect to see those soon.

Infinity: Converted Order Sergeant Hacker

Evening guys,

time for the usual Sunday update, this time it is another infinity based one.

I have been working on a conversion for an order Sergeant hacker as currently there isn't an official model for it. So after looking through the Infinity range I decided that a Kamau would make the ideal basis for my conversion. This is because a lot of the armour details are the same as the order srts that I already have.

Add in a few nights work and some GS and I ended up with this:

Needs a little tidying up but I am very happy with how she has turned out. She is now added ot my infinity painting Queue so will be a while until you see her fully painted up.

Well thats it for this short update, I should have something of a more shambling nature mid week hopefully......

WiP: The Morbid Saint #2

An update? midweek? What is this madness........


Figured that given I missed one the other week I would make up for it now. And what better to show than some progress on the Nurgle Daemon prince. Here he is so far:

He is getting closer and closer to completion, just need to sort out a right arm for him. The biggest decision to make though is whether to give him wings.

Now bare in mind that this guy is a gift for Rictus and upon asking him if he wanted wings he said it was up to me, now as I like to pass responsibility on what do you guys think? wings or no wings?

And on a side note I have taken a brave step into something rather new for me, terrain:

I have had a set of Deadzone terrain knocking around for a few months now, so figured I'd best get cracking on it.  It will be running dual use between both Deadzone and Infinity though it will be drawing most of its inspiration from the infinity side of things.

Still very much a work in progress but I plan to actually scratch build a few buildings out of Foamcard which should be quite a learning curve.

Well thats it for now, will be back on Sunday with more infinity bits and pieces

Infinity Knights #2

Well I look rather stupid don't I, 2 weeks without a post in a supposedly weekly blog disgraceful.

I do however have valid excuses. first of all I had 2 6 day weeks at work which leave me with little energy to spend on Hobbying, instead I have been reading the rather awesome works of an author called Joe Abercrombie (Highly recommended by the way)

Add to that journeying to the inspiration for Mordor itself known only as Birmingham(Or Brum in my local dialect) with none other than Rictus, to go and see Mongol Horde(A side project of Frank Turners:

Following that I was then off to the capital for a weekend visiting my brother.

See all valid reasons.


Anyway onto updates, I have been slowly working away on my infinity stuff, still really enjoying it. I have finished the first of my Order Sergeants:

Really pleased with this guy. The next order sarge is well under way:

Add to this accidentally ordering this lot:

 This will round out my Military orders force completely, save for waiting for them to release a Seraph so as I can have a TAG in my force.

Obviously me being me I have to do some converting somewhere and the finer detail of Infinity models will be a nice new challenge. So a lot of the models above will be being converted to fit in with my theme. Oddly enough I have a WiP conversion to show already.

This is a Female Teutonic Knight converted from one of the newly released Neo Terran Bolts, she is still heavily WiP:

I wanted to add a 2nd Teutonic knight to the force but all the existing models are based off the same knight I already have just with different arms. So I challenged myself to convert one. Eventually she will get a converted Spit fire too.


Well that's it for now a nice big largely infinity focused update. I hope it was worth the wait. Normal service shall resume now.
