"There’s a zombie plague spreading throughout the populace." |
Starting with something hopefully rather straightforward, I thought I'd tackle the large plastic Foot which apparently acts as a persistent threat to the survivors in the boardgame. Sculpted by "Big Child Creatives", I've actually super-glued the model to a plastic oval "Citadel" base, to better protect its paint-job, and given it a prime using a combination of "Vallejo" Leather Brown Surface Primer and Heavy Skintone.
"CoolMiniOrNot" WIPs - This Foot has been primed, base-layered and washed |
Lastly, I haven't completely forgotten about the pair of 28mm scale Laputian Robot Troopers by "Big Mr Tong" I started working on for Angry Piper's annual "Monster May(hem)" event. Obviously, these super-tall automatons are a little late in getting finished. But I'm still determined to get them ready for varnishing as quickly as I can, and maybe even produce another couple of models once I start using my Mars 3 Pro 3D Printer again.
May 2024 - No change at the top considering I only painted a single figure all month long |
I am though pretty confident I can polish off a few of these "CoolMiniOrNot" miniatures, and am already eyeing a few of the Marvel Zombicide models I undercoated at the start of the year. These might make a welcome break from the comedic sculpts I'm currently facing, and maybe even me convince me to get the cooperative boardgame out for a spin - something which ordinarily always helps motivate me to slap some figures with a paint-brush...
Great start to the comedic foot Simon, and if it gets the mojo back then it's got to be a good thing.
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave. Don't know what's happened, tbh. Just a complete lack of desire to paint anything. Hopefully, this'll gee me up a bit.
DeleteAgree! Great one :)
ReplyDeleteCheers Michal. Hopefully I can get back into the swing of things.
DeleteYou should paint what excites and enthuses you, so I am interested to see how you get on. That being said, a foot! A Monty Python foot! This is the place to come for interesting and eclectic minis!! Lol.
ReplyDeleteThanks Undercoat. Definitely trying to pick figs which interest me - otherwise I'm not sure I'd be painting anything these days, tbh. The Monty Python expansion for Zombicide has a fair few such minis in it. So fingers crossed this'll keep me going for a while.
