Zombie Invasion!!!!

Here are a couple of pictures of the Wargames Factory line of Zombies. These were all painted quick and dirty mostly because zombies usually don't stay on a game board for long. Basecoated the skin with Reaper MSP 9149 Moldy Skin. Clothes were done using GW washes and then I washed the skin using a custom mix of Daler-Rowney inks and matte medium. When that was all dried I used the Army Painter Quick Shade "Soft" Tone to dip and seal the minis. I know these wont win any awards, but I think they are good enough for the game table.

Trying to restart the madness

Without going into too much detail my real life has been severely cutting into my hobby time. It happens, not much can be done about it. I was actually starting to lose my interest in doing this anymore, but I did what most of us do, I played on the internet. I started browsing other blogs about painting and gaming. I read thru some forums. I said "What the heck?" and signed up to join a painting forum by the name of WAMP. What a great bunch of people there. I met a person who lives close to me who is a fantastic painter and they offered to teach me anything I wanted help on. You know every time that life seems to kick you in the teeth, it slides a little something good your way. Maybe I am just lucky there.

Anyway, my painting and gaming juices are pumping again and I will soon have some pictures, reviews, maybe even a battle report. Let see if I can really get this thing going.
