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 .

This is my first year of trying out for Zomtober and I am already late for the first post mainly due to being  out yesterday. The detail behind  zombtober can be found on  Pulpcitizen's post  HERE .

Some old pre slotta miniatures from the early 80's a couple of 90's slotta adventurers   Dwarven Thief  ( Chronicle Miniatures Nick Lund)   Gnome Thief ( Citadel )   Human Fighter (Citadel)   Human Mage (Citadel)   Zombie (Otherworld)   Two Headed Ogre (Citadel)

Just a few pictures of some recent painting. The Mordehime necromancer as part of the Mordheim undead warband I am finishing off. I received this as a gift from Mark of the Level 2 Blog. Followed by an Otherwold undead Halfling. This si the final one of the 3 undead non human Otherworld currently produce, again to be used for the mordheim warband. However these 3 figures are significantly smaller than the mix of GW and Westwind I am using for the remainder of the warband.  Finally an old Runequest Duck painted on behalf of Mark. I think he looks better in the flesh. He is so small that he is almost a 15mm miniature.

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 o...
