Blobtober ends

With a couple of days left until Halloween, this is the last sunday of Zombtober... so it is only fitting that I finally get around to painting an actual zombie (sort of). This beastly nightmare is the Ablobination from Zombicide: Black Plague. This nasty bloated thing is an Abomination class zombie, with a ranged attack with that massive long arm... you really don't want to be anywhere near this guy. At all.

Some fantastic entries from everyone this year and thanks for letting me join the shambling hordes!

More zombies

I've finally finished a few more zombies. We have three normal, one rage and one toxic fatty as well as another standard Abomination. The Rage zombies stand out from the crowd with the red splashes, but I'm still not sure if the Toxic zombie with the green elements stands out enough.

The Toxic colour started out as just the new GW pus technical paint, but it's too pale and doesn't really stand out, so I have tried adding some very bright green blobs on the blisters and a green wash over the top of that to blend it in a bit. I think I need to see more of them done in this style before I can see if it works properly...

The zombies are haunting a graveyard... surrounding two future updates

Season 2 Zombie horde continues to grow

The standard walkers/runners/fatties and Abominations from Season 2 are nearly complete in their black and white glory.

There are 4 models left before they are all done and dusted.

The horde currently consists of 36 walkers, 1 Toxic walker, 2 Rage walkers, 16 Runners, 5 Fatties and an Abomination.

The abominable... Abomination!

One last Zombie before Season 1's zombie horde is finished... and here he is.

As there's only one of the Abomination, he really had to have as much effort put into him as a character. I think I still need to do a few little touches to the glass shards and blood as they are looking more like bits of Warpstone growing out of him, which is the wrong game.

I also know that he's not looking very zombie-like. Does he look dead to you? Whenever I see the Abomination, I'm reminded of the massive creatures in Resident Evil that are more mutation than dead person... so this is the approach I've taken here.

Once he is varnished and based, this concludes Season 1. The characters are being left until Season 2 arrives as I wanted to make sure the outfits matched between survivors and zombivors

Speaking of finishing painting Zombicide season 1, mine wasn't quite as taxing as Kasper's mountain of plastic as I missed out on the first Kickstarter. I'm kind of glad really as I was starting to become rather bored of the same walkers again and again. At least season 2 has lots of different types of zombies, so there will be more variation on the painting table.

Time to start packing...
