Okay, so apparently I missed one of the rules of Zombtober...
You know, that rule about posting updates on a Sunday? Yeah, I missed that part, so I claim ignorane, which is bliss in this instance as I've simply been working away oblivious and enjoying every minute of it, and anyway, rules are there to be broken right?
So far I've re-based both of the Zombicide miniatures on 25mm round bases and added some milliput detailing and everything is now undercoated and ready to paint (George was already undercoated and painting had already begun).
It'll be nice to get back to painting on a white undercoat. I switched to white when I started painting my Studio Miniatures zombies for my All Things Zombies games, it was clear the miniatures on thier website were not painted on a black base-coat. However, recently, due to the darker base colours I've used with the majority of my Dust Tactics miniatures, I've steered clear of white in many instances and to be honest, I've missed it.
Time to get some paint on these guys!
Good start and I don't think anyone will object to the late start
ReplyDeleteCheers dude, better late than never!
DeleteLooking forward to seeing how these turn out! I posted my first Zomtober update yesterday as, like you, I totally missed the start of it! So my post was more of a "this is what I plan to do" type of thing. Glad to see I'm not the only one!
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, yup. I'm not going to be able to adhere to the post on Sundays anyway, so I'll be sticking to my Thursday posting for now. It's the spirit that counts methinks!
DeleteAbsolutely! I'm just enjoying the fact that it's motivated me to get painting figures I should really have looked at ages ago! If it goes well I might have to extend it into Zomvember....
Deleteor Zombcember or even Zombuary? :)
DeleteNever mind Adam. Just get them done ASAP. Join in on Sunday dude!
ReplyDeleteYeah, about the Sunday bit :) Will be posting my next update on Thursday
DeleteDoes it really matter if you're a bit late with your updates? Of course not! As long as you're having fun just work at your own pace.
ReplyDeleteCheers Bryan, tht is my view. It's simply a reason to get back to doing what I did when I firts started this blog, painting zombies!
DeleteGood luck with them Adam!
ReplyDeleteCheers Fran, hope you're well buddy
DeleteNo problem Ad! Looking forward to seeing these guys done.
ReplyDeleteThanks Simon, I'm really enjoying taking part and it's been great dealing with Zeds again!
DeleteLove the detailing, can't wait to see them with some paint on them.
ReplyDeleteThank you Michael, very much looking forward to the next steps!
DeleteI do not go strictly by the rules either I must admit....
ReplyDeleteBut zombies get painted!!
I recognise that little dude! Sorry for the lateness of this comment and general lack of net presence recently, matey. Looking forward to seeing these all done.
ReplyDeleteI can only apologise for it taking so long to start getting some paint on the little fella Simon. Life gets in the way some time, so we just have to do what we can I guess!
