The Zombie of the Month- July 2014- Humans!!! by Twilight Creations

   When your horde is just starting out, it can seem economically daunting to try to get up a large number of shambling lovelies in a relatively short period of time. My advice? Check into the world of board games. There are an ever-growing number of board games devoted to zombies, which means fairly cheap figures, especially if they sell expansion packs. And nowadays most companies (wisely) choose to make the zombie figures that come with their game somewhere in the vicinity of 28mm scale. The only downside is, it may not tell you the scale on the box, since board games technically don’t need it. Let me introduce you to one of the board games that got my horde started…

Counterblast Teaser #2- The 1950’s Playlist

   I don’t know about you, but I love wargaming to a soundtrack. And painting to a soundtrack. And driving to a soundtrack. Basically, there should always be music, and music themed to what you’re doing is the best. You know what that means! It means that, with Counterblast coming only about a month away, it’s time to put together a lovely playlist of some music from the 1950’s to be-bop our little aliens to.

Counterblast Teaser #1: The 1950’s Color Palette

   Well, the goodies from the Counterblast Kickstarter are not due out until at least August, but we’re chomping at the bit over here, so we decided to get ahead by painting up a few Bombshell Miniatures we have.

   But what colors to use? Why, a 1950’s palette, of course! The 1950’s are widely regarded as a Golden Age of Sci-fi, so what better color palette to use for our alien cats, jet bikes and space squids?

What did I paint this week? June 15th

Okay, I know, I missed last week.  Last minute revisions on some writing work literally ate up my weekend, and I have the dishes and crumbs to prove it.  However, here's a nice look at some work last week, and some new pieces done this week!

What did I paint this week? June 1st

Yeah, I know, I'm behind on these again.  I promise nothing in these pictures were painted after the first.
(Actually, the models were photographed on Saturday the 31st.)  My schedules just been a bit "happily hectic" recently.  Since I have a few projects finishing up last week and this week, I should be able to get back to a regular painting- and blogging!- schedule once again.

Enough yappin', time to show some finished soldierdolls!
