Termi looks awesome and so does that laurel(ed) helm. Nice golden yellow.

Termi looks much better now that the eyes stand out. Weathering is nice too.

Good to see you moving ahead with your army (pun fully intended). Hopefully the break helped bring you back into the swing of it. I know you have some models to do ahead of you from the post break in care package, any plans for what's coming, or are you just working on the one at a time?

First time looking through this thread and it's all very impressive, good work dude!

I've been putting together some Sanguinary Guard actually... Thinking I might airbrush them gold, see what they looks like

Finally got around to finishing the marine off. Yay first half squad finished... I have no idea how long it'll take to paint me an army... But there ya go... ^_^




Might take a few individual shots of the marines... Most of them are floating around anyway. The only difference the keen of eye will notice is that I've rebased everything. I just clicked that Secret Weapon Miniatures no longer makes the straight edged bases I originally used... Doh... As I have no idea what will get discontinued next and these guys are going to be a longer term thing I figured I'd just make them myself... ^_^

Very very cool, vent. Bases look great! Really glad to see you back painting ^^

Very nice. I like it when the BA fellows aren't fully blinged out, and more like normal space marines. Do you have an army list you are going for, or just painting up guys to eventually have a whole group?

They came out really well vent! Look great as a group!

Haha, the bases took me all of twenty minutes for five of them... Cheers though ^_^

An Army list implies I know how to actually play this game... Alas... I'm still not sure... I'll have to look these... Army lists... up

Cheers Gits. I like them a group as well

It turns out that trying to cram three years of university work into one year leaves very little time for other pursuits. While I have tried to paint, I have failed more than succeeded...

That being said, I have been painting some things... Speed Painting Gooooooo!

OK, so I'm the worst speed painter in the world. I'll often take an hour (or longer) on an SM helmet to be happy with it. In an effort to help me paint quicker I'm going slap happy with my Zombicide zombies. It took me two hours to get these seven done. Anyone who knows me knows that this is a monumental achievement of splediferous speed for me...

Huge time savers were the army painter sprays and dips. I only used three colours, but I'm about to do my next batch which will have more colours...For gaming pieces (Which they are), they're fine, but I really had to stop myself from doing eyes, and picking out all the little bits...

I'll still take my time with the survivors, and zombivors, but these are OK... ^_^

That's pretty darn good for two hours vent. Gets the idea across for sure.

Good to have you posting again. Carrying that kind of class load is also impressive... if somewhat less visually entertaining.

Nice looking "speed" zombs. If you do them in color batches, it should mae them fly by, and will give you a nice mix in game.

Thanks guys... My next batch was 15, which I think is as large a mini count as I can get in one painting ^_^

Oh, and if you go to the gallery image you can zoom in as much as you want, I uploaded the raw image which is something like 6k x 5k in dimensions...

I really want to get/paint zombicide before halloween... be a wonderful game to play leading up to the holiday.

Looking mighty fine vent, as one would expect!

Plugging away, keep at it! Did you get S2 or any other expansions? More importantly, have you played yet?

@gits: You should for sure pick it up. The kids would take to it quickly, and it's easy enough for anyone to play. I've played 10x the games of that to 40k in the last year.

Yeah, I play it quite often. It's a fantastic game, especially when you use all the pop culture characters (My Favorite is El Cholo AKA Machete)...

I did get S2... and I got my email saying it was on the way... I'm already fighting an uphill battle with the minis I have now! Adding S2 to the mix might kill me! ^_^

I still haven't got my shipping email! Some of the S1 bonus dudes are amazing (Angelina Jolie and Chuck Norris specifically), I'm hoping they continue to be. My brother is a Cholo fan too, he calls him a "Whirlwind of Destruction"

Machete Kills.... that's what he does.

He's good at killing early to mid game fatties or spawn point camping, but lacks the number of dice needed for late game (usually dies in our games).

Yeah, I usually set him up as a support guy for the ranged characters, or as a meat shield if needed, still one of my favs though ^_^ In our last game he was the pimp mobile driver and he cut a swath of destruction through the Zombie masses! I'm gonna have to make me some cop cars and pimp mobiles ^_^

Federale Officer: You're the boss.
Machete: No.
[Pulls out machete]
Machete: This is the boss.

And then I snapped... No seriously... I really did... LOOK AT ALL THESE ZOMBIES THAT TURNED UP!

I thought I'd been doing well to start the horde and stuff but Fate is a Bitch... And she hates me too...

I mean the box was big... But maybe it's just really well packed:



Hmmm just some dogs? Maybe we should go deeper!



The full horror is exposed!

Zounds! Zombiepalooza!

I still haven't got may S2 goodies :(

You gotta live in the cool countries... Like New Zealand ^_^

And suddenly ZOMBIES!




So... Many... Zombies...

Oh my gosh Vent... it's a complete zombie herd! Run, run for your lives!!

That's a lot of zombs!

Gitsplitta wrote:Oh my gosh Vent... it's a complete zombie herd! Run, run for your lives!!

Running won't help! Get a weapon and wade on in!

whalemusic360 wrote:That's a lot of zombs!

Try painting them...

My Airbrushing is still at the newb level, so I purchased this for some practice... While not a gaming miniature it's still pretty cool in my humble opinion ^_^

Wow ! Sorry for my lack of geekittude, but which universe does that ship come from?
