Zombie of the Month- October 2015- Mindless Zombies by Wyrd Miniatures

   Well, you have seen them appearing in drips and drabs all month long for my Zombtober articles, but that's no reason for them not to get their own, bona fide Zombie of the Month Article. So here they are, all together for the first time, like a little zombie family.

Zomtober 2015 Week 4- Cleaning up?

   Well, well, well, here we are, at the fourth and final week of Zomtober 2015, or Zomtober IV,
whichever way you are counting. It feels a little wierd having more than a week of Octoober left and putting up my final post for Zomtober, but that's the way the schedule worked out this year. More zombies might still happen as a matter of principle, but I guess I should take advantage of the opportunity to finish some other things that are due for all these commissios and contests I got myself into ::lol::. I need to plan better next year. Anyways, here they are, my last two official zombies for this Zomtober- well, the last two I can show you right now. I give you my word my zombie Hare Krishna is also done, but we don't want you to know which one belongs to whom until after the voting, so I'm not showing you right now. But for the record, that makes my personal official Zomtober total 9- two per week, plus a Hare Krishna. Oh, and one of those was on a 50mm base, to boot.

Zomtober Week 3 from Ali

Well, another week has come and gone, and due to a ridiculous case of road rash on my palms from a running accident, I have been fairly useless. Fortunately I had just enough dexterity to grasp a brush, so I was still able to eek out a couple zombies. No, that misspelling was intentional; don't correct it.

Zomtober Week 2- Ali Alcatraz

   All right, folks, nothing unpredictable this week. I was able to finish two more zombies from the Malifaux Mindless Zombies set. These are both awesome characters- one obviously working the railroad or something and a girl that had a nasty run-in with an archer. I decided to start playing around with skintones. After all, what better time to experiment than on a couple of random zombies. And besides, Second Class Elitist loves layered washes and paint schemes, so I figured they'd go well with the Resurrectionist force he's making.

   So, for the girl, I went with a mix of blue and skintone paints, washed over with a wash of equal parts Army Painter Green Tone and Strong Tone, for that fetid remains look.
   The guy is using that obnoxiously pink Army Painter Barbarian Flesh, washed over with the Green Tone and THEN the Strong Tone, to give a two layered toning effect.

   Stay tuned next week, when I promise you some Pulp City, and possibly a Malifaux Substitute. I'm almost done with the Mindless Zombies box, anyhow. Don't worry, they will all come back for their own Zombie of the month article.

Zombie of the Month August 2015- The Lovely Ladies of Malifaux, Part Two: Rotten Belles (metal edition)

Good evening everyone.  Ali is a bit busy making new friends this month, so I stepped in to try to raise up an article for her.  Our zombie of the Month this time around is a part two of an eventual four parter starring the Lovely Dead Ladies of Malifaux.  This one is the Rotten Belles edition.

Who let the (zombie) dogs out?

I may have mentioned, nothing escapes my zombie apocalypse. Even if that weren't the case, though, zombie dogs are a classic.  There's very little that's scarier than man's best friend turned man's worst enemy.  That's why I'm very pleased to present this month's expansion of our collection of zombie dogs with:

Apparently, even Lovecraft fanatics need some zombies every once in a while…

6MMRPC: Ali Project #1- Clean-up from painting week

   Having just finished Painting Week, I decided the best thing to do for my first project for the Mountain of Metal Painting challenge is to clean up all those little miscellaneous models that I didn't finish during that Paintcation. The individual Pulp City models, the little bits of terrain I didn't quite finish, the individual models or last ones in a set that I didn't get through or found on my project shelf after the week was over- they are all taking up space needlessly, keeping me from getting to my teams and gribblies. So here we go:

WIP Wednesday! Going big, and going tiny!

So, this week's WIP Wednesday has a little bit of everything- conversion, miniatures, BIG minatures, and miniminiatures.  Come on in at look around!

Zombie of the Month February 2015- The Lovely Ladies of Malifaux, Part One: Dead Doxies (metal edition)

   I love dead hookers. 

   There, I said it. I admit it. I love all zombies, but the zombies I love most are zombies with something special about them. And, at least for me, any zombie that looks like it was already walking the streets before it became undead has a story, and that makes it special. So I love zombie hookers. They're like the "Brides of Dracula" of the zombie world- beautiful, hideous, and deadly all at once. And no one does undead hookers like Malifaux. So, here they are, the first in what I hope will eventually be several editions of Malifaux Ladies:

A mind of Metal and Machine: Cybertronic Mirrormen Unboxed

The Mirrormen had always been a bit of an odd duck in Warzone.  In one addition they were counter-espionage and drew attention to themselves so other units could sneak past, in another they were sneak-suited like the Predator.  What did Prodos decide?  "Why not both?"

WIP Wednesday! Our Biggest WIP yet!

It's Wednesday yet again, and that means it's time to look at what we're working on.  We realized there's a ton of models heading our way, so it's time crank it up a notch!

The Sunday News- February 8th

Back from TempleCon, to bring you all the news from a week in the world of wargaming!

WIP Wednesday!

It's another Wednesday, and it's time for a few more WIP shots! Unfortunately we don't have much to show off this week, but there are a couple neat things going on we thought we should put up.

Hidden Agendas: Meet LXG- Belgarath97

Besides just the gameplay, we want to take the opportunity to allow you to meet the players of LXG.  Today Token Gamer Chic interviews Belgarath97 about his Warzone: Resurrection army.

Hidden Agendas: Proditious HotSS Character Introduction

Due to public request, we will be creating and fielding Heroes of the Solar System characters for each of our Warlords in the Hidden Agendas Warzone: Resurrection campaign. With the voice talents of Neuicon, the Warlord of the Dark Legion comes to life...

WIP Wednesday: Campaign Prep Paint-a-rama!

Welcome to WIP Wednesday! We've got a lot of work we need to do, so here goes the list on our painting tables to prep for our two campaigns!

Zombie of the Month- Year in Review 2014

   Well, zombie lovers, we've come to the end of our first wonderful year of Zombie of the Month! My apologies for missing February, but with most months being entire sets, we still have plenty of lovely zombies out there to add to your collection, if you so choose.

Malifaux Battle Report: Mei Feng vs. Perdita

I know it might seem that I never actually play.  Most of our battle reports involve 2CE and his various opponents.  Mainly that is a product of the club primairly playing in his house. but today was different, I, Belgarath97, got in a game against Merek, with an added bonus that we both played with new crews we both had interest in.  For me it was Mei Feng, I'm really interested in her as a master so I can have another Arcanist option to go with Colette.  Merek used Perdita, which would be a complement to his Hoffman crew.  We got Standard deployment, with the Reckoning Strategy, and Power Ritual, Breakthrough, Vendetta, Line In the Sand, and Protect Territory Schemes.  I chose Vendetta and Protect Territory, and chose one of my Rail Workers to kill his Hunter for Vendetta.  Merek chose Power Ritual, which he revealed, and Protect Territory.

Malifaux Battle Report: Yan Lo vs Rasputina, 65 Soul Stones!

So, as you can read in this article, Ali has finally finished her Yan Lo box, plus the extra models she really wanted to use thematically with it.  As a reward, she wanted to do something she never does and play a BIG GAME, using all her freshly painted pieces.  As it turns out, the only person with enough painted models to go up against a 65 soulstone force all with one theme was me.  So, we ditched the normal order of picking things, and settled right into going to town with Yan Lo vs. Rasputina!
