Zomtober Week 2


This week I completed a few zombies and a few survivors.  The zombies are in two groups, Zombicide and the Zpocalypse minis.

Zpocalypse minis color blocked
A quick recap of the zombie painting plan - I just block in a few colors and then hit them with a 'dip' of red and black stain and a green/brown wash.  It's a mess, but it does the trick.  It does make painting zombies a bit easier.

Zpocalypse figs after the dip

These are easily the worst figures I have had the pleasure of painting.  They are not quite 28mm scale, closer to 25mm.  They will work as 'filler' zombies for the horde, but as individuals, they are bad.  The female zombies appear to have had their hair fall down around their shoulders, leaving them bald.  I'm just going to get paint on them and call them done.
First batch done
Two Zpocalypse figs and a Zombicide fig for reference
The Zombicide minis are from the Prison Outbreak expansion, season 2 I believe.  They are the typical good quality of Zombicide minis, much better than the messy Zpocalypse figs.  I am painting them in pretty typical prison colors, orange jumpsuits on the prisoners and white shirts over blue pants for the guards.
Survivors for a bonus!
As a bonus, I have three survivors finished as well.  Two are female survivors from Wargames Factory Survivors:Women box set.  I added some rather poor greenstuff to the RPG armed woman, adding in some sweatpants in place of shorts and shoes instead of flip-flops.  The other woman is armed with a bow and carrying an AK.  The third miniature is from Reaper Chronoscope, Candy, anime hero.  I have based her on a Secret Weapons ruined street base.
Group shot!

I have undercoated some more figs, hopefully next week is as productive!

A New Dawn


As Dawn is taking over as my star, I decided to give her a new miniature.  I have chosen to use the Dark Reaper miniature "Mira" who bears more than a passing resemblance to Alice from Resident Evil fame.
Dawn, looking a bit more Post-Apocalyptic
While the mini is armed with a pistol and kukri, (the mini has options for two of either, or a mix/match like I have done) and this is a fair match for what Dawn is armed with.

I went with an earth tone palette, and a natural leather look for her trench coat.  I did go with red hair instead of blonde (from her original model) as I liked its look better.
It's a Big Pistol...
All the rage in PA fashion!
I have the miniature mounted on a Secret Weapons "Urban Streets" base, whose bases I am a fan of.  I went with a pretty bland gray rubble/pavement scheme for the base.  It works with my street tiles pretty well.

Also I managed to find some Horrorclix and have started the repaint/rebase of those miniatures.  They will appear in some of the next batreps or just join the growing horde of zeds and survivors...

Time to face the zombie horde!
