Don't we all!

The Ullanor Crusade takes place in two weeks time. Once the Pre-Heresy event is complete I will begin dedicating most of my time to the completion of my portion of the zombie horde. Remember, ZombAid will need the help of the community to be successful, not only with the painting and donation of the walking dead, but in the eventual online auction which will raise the funds for our chosen charity!

I've managed to source a lot of zombies from the wargames factory, via horde'o'bits on ebay (purchased) and as previously mentioned, Mantic Games (donated) have also added to the cause. combined with my initial surplus of brain eaters the horde has almost 50 zombies thus far. Typhus (purchased) will be dispatched to NukeArts soon for a professional display standard commission paint job (donated).

There are still some months to go, but if you would like to contribute it would be best to start sooner rather than later as hobby deadlines often slip beyond the realms of retrievability (is that even a word?).

Thanks for you forthcoming assistance chaps!

Hey chaps.

Animosity - In the Hive of the Dead is on its way.

Having seen the Ullanor Crusade moved to November and having The Veiled Region come and go extremely quickly, all efforts now move towards July and the growing Zombie horde!

All help in this charitable effort will be gratefully accepted!

Thanks chaps!

I will paint up some zombies. I'll buy some next pay day and let you know how many. Is it still at Mansfield or has tht changed?

Its still Mansfield dude, just a different venue within as our former haunt has been liquidated!

wow now that would be a very large puddle once liquidated it was a big location..
OK Zombie making time sure i can stretch to a box or 2

All offers welcome gingerfeller (thanks Martin)

With the push towards the Hive of the Dead campaign well and truly underway I suppose I better make things happen on this thread to...

Here is the cover art for, Animosity - In the Hive of the Dead

Found some more zombies in a box yesterday... the horde grows.

Hope you guys aint forgotten about this!

I'm going to begin work on the underhive tomorrow...

as things stand the zombie horde is less a horde and more a few stumbling corpses that seem to have bumped into each other. I must work on increasing the corpse count.

Help for Heroes people!

Righto chaps and chapettes... I really want to get the horde work ramped up so if you can see your way to helping us out by donating some painted zombies on 40k urban bases that would be awesome. Its for Help the Heroes remember!

The auction will take place in August after the event and feature a pro painted Typhus which will really help us to bump up the bids... but if the hordes is lacking in hordiness we may not get as much for charity as we hope for.

Just PM me for details for the address and stuff etc and lets see if we can't give the walking dead herds a run for their money in the corpse count!!!

There are a lot of donations promised so hopefully the horde will grow rapidly as we approach June and July!

I'll be there ticket this Friday and zombies on the way too

Thanks dude. And pass my thanks to BC as well.

15 painted by my fair hand... so far!

17 so far...

Only got my zombies as of yet, looking forward to receiving the donations from other participants in our charity effort!

22 and Typhus is with NukeArts...

25 down... hoping others will take up the baton now, I'm getting a zombie induced headache!

30 done...

Keep up the good work, Geordie! As they say, "Paint them and they will come..."

I hope so... there hasn't been as much support from the forum here as i had hoped for... at least our gamers will help build up the horde!

My pledge - If we can get 200 donated zombies, with proof of live (or death - pictures) before the event, I will play out the entirety of day one dressed as a zombie!

Its for a good cause...

Will something similar be organized again, you think? I can't jump on this year, though I'd really like to.

I'm not sure, if you like our Facebook page you'll be able to keep up to date without scouring the dakka threads if we do run similar charity efforts though chap!

I guess it will depend upon how successful we are this time around. It seems that our event gamers are the only guys participating...

Thanks to Spirit of Kantor for donating these lovely dead men!

The horde looks much er, healthier now in the opening post!

Cheers!

I had a vision that a deadly virus had been through the training temple on Rynns world and the acolytes came shambling out, flesh stripped from power fists and moaning zombies, some carrying las weapons, are in search of xeno brainnnnnsssss!

Going to paint 70 zombies in total! That's my pledge, if I don't make the total ill shave my head!

Props to SpiritOfKantor fo' shizzle! Those zombays look wicked bruv!

Since you plan on doing 70(!) have you thought about getting some zombie chavs in on it? Complete with hoodies and TK Maxx tracksuits... init! Although I suppose they could be alive still, it's hard to tell

I've lost track of how many zombies we're collecting/donating as I'll be sourcing most of them from gamers who are attending the Hive of the Dead campaign weekend. Only one non-attending contributor to the cause...

I'll update the horde when the weekend has been and gone, it'll be easier and more accurate that way.

Hey dudes.

I've started a fresh thread in the SWAP SHOP forum to begin the auction fpr the zombies and Typhus. You can see a pic of LIL LEGENDs Typhus in the thread...

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/549567.page

Please don't bump the thread if you are only looking as they get a bit funny about it in the swap shop!

Thank dudes.

Pics of the zombies will follow.

The auction is LIVE...
