Deviant Designs Deeds

After a long quest I finally managed to land my hands on this:- I would suggest that this dragon is firmly based off the dragon appearing on the original monster manuel. My intention is to run a monthly progress report until he is done, starting hopefully in March with the unboxing, and work permitting the clean up. I have also managed to paint up this Grenadier Mind Flayer Not my favorite figure as I think it looks like he is dancing to some Heavy Disco, but another one off the lead pile.

Back before it was trendy I loved Vampires, the scary, evil serial killer types. Not your more modern shiny, vegetarian reformed serial killer types who have human girlfriends and deny their true nature. Think Salam's Lot, Dracula, Anno Dracula, 30 Days of Nights, Let the right one in, I am legend (which I must re-read), Martin the vampire, Ultraviolet, Near Dark, Byzantium, and perhaps the early Anne Rice stuff. So over the years I seemed to have amassed and painted a few starting back with the original citadel FF58 - Vampire through to more modern such as Otherworld Miniatures more recent UD10 - Vampire. I still have a few unpainted (in fact some still blister packed) but what follows is a gallery of the ones done to date. Otherworld Miniatures Citadel FF58 Dracula in Half Bat Form, - Westwind Necrach - GW Heresy Chinese Vampire - Westwind Nosferatu - Westwind Nosferatu - Westwind Nosferatu - Westwind Blood Dragon - GW Von...

A very brief update with one Studio Miniatures Modern Zombie painted this week, Zombtober Information The detail behind  zombtober can be found on  Pulpcitizen's post  HERE . (Also the source of the banner at the top.) but the  rules are simple. T o take part you just need to paint one Zombie or Survivor (or more!) each week, in any scale you like, posting it to your blog by the Sunday (we use Sunday's as the end of each Zomtober week). So that means one or more minis each week on or before the 4th, 11th, 18th and 25th of October 2015. Others chasing the dream are:- Zomtober 2015 blog roll: Brummie's Wargaming Blog  - Simon Four Colour Super Minis  - Rob Fantorical  - Blaxkleric Fiends in Waistcoats  - Robert Audin Mike's Random Wargaming Meanderings  - Mike C Minis by Finch  - Finch Chris' Miniature Woes  - Chris Hird Metal Skirmish  - PMMDJ 28mm Victor...

My second post for Zomtober. M y aim will be to do more than the minimum but its a bit busy at the moment. My second subject is an old Citadel Zombie C18  Deadringer  square based although as I said I am toying with  moving him to a circle base as most of my other  stuff is already on circles. That is why there is no flock. Painted the same time as the last entry he is newly dead with a normal flesh tone and dripping blood, with a lot of his skin torn off free showing skeletal arms. Only took me some 20+ years to finally get around to painting. Zombtober Information The detail behind  zombtober can be found on  Pulpcitizen's post  HERE .
