Negan

Everyone's favorite bad guy

Couple more figures from Mantic Walking Dead

A survivor from the comics, not the show (forget his name) and a gnarled zombie.  Check out his foot facing backwards!!!!  I call him 'Oh Brother'

Rick and Coral

From the Walking Dead comics and Mantic Games

Apocalyptic terrorist?

Not sure what this guy is supposed to be - he has wires and lots of cell phones???  Whatever - dont mess with him!!!

Farmer/Zombie Hunter

I see a lot of this in my daily life....

International Zombie Elimination Division

Wargames Factory 'Special Ops' from Warlord Games.  I gave each of them a 'country flag' patch

Zombie food, err, I mean scientists!

Objectives for a zombie game?

 

Zombie Hunter Survivalist type

This was a decent figure from Warhansa - a russian company I had not heard of before.

Something didnt turn out right with the fig....i havent nailed exactly what it is, but I blew it.  The clothes have some nice highlights, but the face and hair are kinda boogered up.  Maybe a couple more highlights there?

Sister Mary Agnes, of Our Holy Sacrament. Zombie hunter.

"The Lord would want me to survive"

Roy Orbison, survivor

Its pretty rare we get snow here in NC, but its possible from time to time.  Today, we have somewhere between 6-8 inches.  Snow day!!!!

Survivor

Not really sure what this guy is supposed to be....survivor, punk, criminal?  Whatever, he caught my eye

Also, check this out.  I got 3 out of the final 4 World Cup teams right, and I picked the Finals teams correct as well.  I have picked Argentina over Germany (looking back now, that may be a mistake!) but Im sticking with Messi and Aguero!

Zombie Kill Team

Khurasan Miniatures - these guys are listed as a zombie kill team.


I added 'nationalities' to their shoulder gear.  After all, when the zombies come, we want the best of the best taking care of business right?

Check back tomorrow for a penny sized Millenium Falcon!

Some scanvengers, sci fi guys, or survivors

Three 'Scavengers' from Copplestone Castings.  Im not really sure what they are supposed to be, but nonetheless, fun to paint.

Daryl Dixon

The Walking Dead is my favorite show on TV right now, and could very well be my favorite show ever.  To that end, I purchased 'Not' Daryl Dixon from Studio Miniatures and painted him up.  Cool figure!  He even has a squirrel on his belt!!!

The first rule of Zombieland: cardio

Columbus

Oh, this Twinkie thing, it ain't over yet.

Tallahassee from Zombieland

The Van Buren Boys

An obscure Seinfeld reference....

I finished up a couple more bikers to round out the pack from Copplestone Castings.  Overall, a great pack to paint with lots of character.

Dont mess with me before I have my coffee

I didnt know how to paint beer in a mug, so I went with Starbucks!  Another biker from Copplestone Castings....got two more nearly complete, but I wanted to go ahead and put this guy up this morning.

With a rebel yell

Another of the 'Bikers' from Copplestone Castings.  I was a little afraid that she would come out looking like a tranny....I think I avoided that though!

Biker and April 2012 Totals

First up - my first completed purchase from Salute!  A biker from Copplestone Castings.  I really love Copplestone's stuff - always very alive.  I got a few packs - bikers and some scavengers - but I forgot that if I was to paint bikers, I needed to paint tats right???  Ugh - I wasnt brave enough to try to pull it off on this figure.

April was another relatively slim month for painting.  I was in the UK for 10 days, prep for the UK was at least a couple days, working late after the return is another 4 or 5 days, and a visit from the mum was a couple days.  Hopefully, I can turn my painting around in May.

3 (Michonne and 2 Zombies) (Victory Force Miniatures and Hasslefree Miniatures

Im really on the 10mm figure kick right now.  Ive got a stack of 10mm ACW to paint, as well as some other stuff.  I should finish up the viking from Gripping Beast tonight or tomorrow (barring any surprises).  The armor has been on my plate since last month - they are sitting on my desk half started...I need to finish them up!
