Yes I would like some more. But I must pace myself.
The Zombicide Black Plague knight level pledge $150, will give me 195 models to paint
I might do a double on it
I also already have dungeon saga coming, and Blood RAGE (around 100 figs)
And KOW2 coming which will only have the $50 pledge level stuff (1 figure I think)

Also trying not to back Conan if they send me the PM.

Also my MODcubes will be here SOON

While I'd like more, I think I can possibly attack the basement and garage of shame

I'm really tempted by the Conan pledge, but then again there's a bunch of duplicates, a variety of Conans and just a few huge pieces that look great. Though not much in the way of crossover with the Zombicide stuff. Maybe I'll just stick to the one knight level pledge for Zombicide Black Plague and then invest my other funds into more of the contemporary Zombicide stuff. I still need prison outbreak and Rue Morgue.

Not where I should be

So many painted models for someone who said "I'm not back!".

Would be an interesting though probably impossible task to see parade day, Shas v's Theo. The rate you are going you can probably give his army a run for its money with just the zombies.

Ehh, they just need to implement some scale-reference guides in the photos and point the models opposite the other guy so you can edit the photos to make them opposing

Okay so last night at work I was jonesing for zombies....not a good thing at a hospital. Well anyway when I got home and everyone was asleep I decided to get a group shot. And current count.
Spoiler:

So that's 137 zombies of all different shapes and sizes on my desk there that are painted and have been toned.

Not in photo are 35 more needing paint, 2 of which were done after the photo, 28 survivors and their zombivor alternates, and an additional 8 figures that are helpers (forget their game titles) 2 of which are painted and ) are not.

So a month and a half lead to 167 painted figures. Once the remaining ones get completed then they will all get matte sealed and then there will be Blood for the Blood God and Nurgle's rot added. Also basing will need to be sorted out as well. As of right now I'm very happy with my progress I didn't think I had passed the 100 goal, turns out I crushed it. Might need a celebratory purchase of more zombies for a reward.

Well graven, your making progress in the family growing side

Vik, I am really chugged at the numbers Ive done.

And then there's more.

) more zombies go shoot up later.

And then There's this





I have been kicking around this idea for a while now. The boards are one piece and have magnets on the back. The. There's an inside crossbar that also has magnets on it. That allows the boards to be removed and replaced over and over. When the game is played I'll be able to show movement and open doors(windows) in three dimensions.

genius...and also telepathic as that was the first idea i had when seeing the nailed up board... "would be cool to have the board being able to taken off, either due to not being there yet or getting smashed down by Z´s..." and then you already delivered ^^

Well here's the toned boarded window with a few runners for scale.


Also just ran to miniaturemarket.com and bought VIP set 1, they are drying after being primed as well as a small building set.

@vik, I'll have to check that show out, if it's available on Netflix. Currently rewatching supernatural, or listening to it while painting, doing school work and stuff.
@giraffex,it might be a horde, but we keep running out of zombie models for the long games. And when you run out of a certain type then all the models on the board of that type get an extra action phase.

So I painted four more today, but decided to do more work on the terrain. So I made a few more magnetic window barricades, and then got an idea for a commercial roll up door (for the car garage board). I think I can make it functional , just no motor.

Here's the start of the garage door, it's hard to tell but it has been toned. Also a boarded up doorway as well.

Looking good. I'm glad I don't live so close to MM.

I like supernatural and feel that all seasons have something to offer, but I probably liked the earlier seasons better.

funnily supernatural never did it for me... poster boy actors...and this "we kill this bad boy demon...all seems quiet and then this next super demon scheme appears..."

the rolled up garage door could be quite an easier feat when you use one of these sushi rolling mats... cut up to seize...

@vik, I used a bunch of cheap wooden skewers that I had left over and cut them the same size. I thought about using plastic corrugated pieces, but if I can pull off the roll up then I'll be really happy.
@grimdork, I like the goofiness of the show the most. Especially the episode when they travel to an alternate dimension where they are the actors of the supernatural TV show. Especially like the part where misha Collins is tweeting his fans (his Mishamigos )

Class tonight, will try and get some painting done afterwards depending on how late we go. Probably really late because of last weeks class getting cancelled.

I thought it was pretty funny when that prophet guy was writing their lives as books and they had hardcore dedicated fans cosplaying them, that and the bromance fan fiction

There are so many great little bits hidden as well. One of the more recent episodes I watched (season7) they are tracking down cursed items and they ask a curator in a museum about something. He starts rambling on about stuff and shows the. A picture of two guys who were "brothers" with the last name Campbell (their maternal grandparents name). The curator lets them know that they weren't really brothers, but lovers who hid their true lives by saying they were "brothers". They keep that innuendo going the entire series.

Also them writing in bobby singer (the director) as a main character

But Chuck the prophet is great, along with his monologues. I think the best is when he tells the story of their Impala.

And the genius of coming up with a Leviathan named Dick . Endless laughs.

Its a show you can't take too seriously after oh, the 5th season or so, but it was always entertaining.

I'm more a fan of the Buffy mentality though, the Supernatural all things that aren't human are totally evil and must die no matter the circumstances thing gets a bit tired after awhile, and you miss out on cool monster characters like Spike and others.

There were a few episodes when they let the "evil" things live, but not many.

Well home from school, kids and wife asleep. So back to the garage door.

In down position with four newly painted zombies trying to get in.


Door open, billy bob should have checked before opening.

Door is nice.

Sam let that Asian monster live and Dean cut her head off not 10 minutes later in the same episode lol.

But he did get a bit more lax after Benny, much to Sam's chagrin.

May paint some zombies soon myself, though I'll have to clean them up and glue them together first...

I almost jumped on the mantic future zombie bundle from the latest kickstarter. 80 zombies for $45, but then I had heard about all the cleanup.

Not much done today as kids are back to school so I have to wait for them to get on the bus before I leave to work at church, kind of shoots me in the foot to try and get anything done during the week.

I had school last night, last class for the degree , I could take four or five more and get a second bachelors though. But will most likely just go for my masters in Business administration instead. The teacher looked frazzled, I guess being a cpa and the bad day at the stock market didn't help.

No more cleanup than regular hard plastic models, but that is a not in significant amount.

The other reason was there's no Zombicide: Space Derelict game , that might be more of the reason....and I'm just frustrated with them having KOW2 stuff in stores in England before all the backers have them. Sure they can blame it on Blaine, but that's their own fault.
