Only managed to get one zombie done in the first week of Zombtober. But 1 is better than none. He is a single Wargames Foundry Wild west Zombie gunfighter. Unlike most horde zombies he is armed with an antiquated rifle a holstered pistol and even a sheathed knife. If he can use them is another matter of course.
Most of the paint work was done with washes as I wanted a really dirty and grimy look. Not really too much more to say about him. Just your average ho-hum run of the mill wild west zombie with a gun. He fits in with the others I have done and the horde slowly grows larger.
I know it's hardly a horde but it does continue to grow and expand and by the end of Zombtober should be over 20 metal figures. which should be more than enough to discourage a player or two.
That's todays very brief update. Just touching base really and as week 1 of Zombtober closes at least I can put something up which is relevant to the event. Even if only 1 figure. The painting table continues to be cluttered with a variety of projects in several scales and will no doubt be worse after SELWG>
I shall do my usual club report on Monday. Tomorrow we are playing an ACW game with two new members. Graham and myself and the two new members Ian and Matt. I have no idea what the rest of the club will be doing so it will be nice to see what's going on when I get there.
That's it for today. Have a good weekend and next update on Monday.
Cheers Clint
Nice job! I like the Western zombie theme. Sorry that my pictures are not coming out on my blog but they are on the lead adventure site(I have no idea why its not working)
ReplyDeleteNo worries Bandit I am sure you will solve that issue. And thank you for the comment.
DeleteWhat a rotten figure! You know what I mean - he looks thoroughly dead and not at all fresh. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteThank you Colgar.
DeleteGreat job. I need to to take pics of my own fig hopefully the sun will pop out for a photoshoot this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI took the photo 6am this morning. You just cant odds the British weather. But you might get lucky. Thank you Simon
DeleteOh I say I like that and I wish I had got my backside in gear to paint some myself.
ReplyDeleteI suffer from painters apathy most days. But sometimes you just have to get it done. Not to late to join in Pete, just 1 survivor or zombie each week in October. I KNOW you can manage that level of output. Come on Join in!
DeleteJob's a good 'un, I'd say. Nice work, Clint and a good start to your Zombtober project.
ReplyDeleteI thought it important to get something done for Zombtober early so I would not sit around and twiddle my thumbs and say next moth I should have done that. (I have a survivor on the painting table for next week) Thank you Bryan
DeleteGreat start to Zomtober, nice work there. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you citizen.
DeleteWell done that man, first blood to you. I do love the Weird West miniatures.
ReplyDelete"First Blood" Chortle. Actually Bandit 86 published 1 minute ahead of me so I think he should get the credit for "First Blood".
DeleteWeird West is akin to Victorian Adventures but on the fantasy side. So I am not totally surprised that it suits you. Wild West is American Colonial era after all.
Thank you Michael.
Looks good Clint, nice to see you fullfilling the challenge :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Mathyoo. No point in entering a challenge if you are not going to carry out the requirements.
DeleteNice work Clint! He certainly looks wild and up for some action!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ray.
DeleteI like the disgusting complexion on his face :)
ReplyDeletePersonally I like the skin tone better on his back. But thank you Anne.
DeleteGreen and icky! I love an old school zombie! Well done on starting zomtober.
ReplyDeleteThank you Rob.
DeleteGood looking zombie (can I really say that about a zed ?)
ReplyDeleteAny progress, no matter how small is progress and would you have even thought of doing it without the Zomtober challenge ?
Truth to admit no I would have stayed with Samurai and not done any zombies. The next figure for Zombtober has been on the back burner for about a year. So I can see a relevance.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jo
Nice one Clint.. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you kindly Gnotta.
