Been Busy

Over the last two weeks I have been very busy so the hobby side has hit the back burner.

I have been working on some bases for my studio miniatures zombies. I am currently filing the bases supplied with model clay which hardens in 24hrs and either marking some groves to represent paving slabs or topping with sand to represent ash felt. The Z is then removed from his slotta tab and pinned to the base before undercoating.


Additionally I have been painting up some otherworld Kobolds which I built and based some time ago. The figures were stuck to the usual slotta base and then the base was covered with non branded wall filler. I then cut some random groves in the base to represent stone work before undercoating.

The figures are quite nice but come with separate hands/arms and can be quite fiddly to stick together.

Mark (wardy-la) mentioned he liked this figure so here’s a painted version done some time ago

I have also taken delivery of a bag of Cthulhu and plan on painting a few of these up (eventually?)

Fab stuff Andrew!
Love the old 'dilletante' figure too, thanks for posting that. I really need to repaint my one. Looking for ward to seeing -
a) a mass of painted zombies
b) bag of cthulhu - they almost look like they don't need a paint job from your pic!
I have also set up a new blog for our 'zombie project' so you should have an invite to add stuff to that.
