Hasslefree Survivors: Bunny Boiler Alice - death in a sexy cocktaildress

Hello all,
Another of the brilliant sculpts from Hasslefree: Bunny Boiler Alice.

A very attreactive lady, great curves and, as always from Kev White, a beautiful face, althought he eyes are tiny! A fun little thing is the stuffed rabbit with a gunshot wound to the head. Stuff like that really gives you something to ponder while painting.

I went back and fixed her eyes after these pictures - she is tiny, and I couldn't see the issue before these pictures were available...

Hasslefree's description of Alice:

Always think of Alice and the White rabbit as a cute fairy tale experience? Not this version....more bunny-boiler than bunny-loving. There are two variants of this figure, this is a slight conversion of the Fu-uk winner to having high heels rather than combat boots.

Creator: Kev White

Hasslefree Survivors: Renato Ramirez - post-apocalyptic Nazi in a pink tutu

Hello all,
A post-apocalyptic Nazi in a pink tutu? How could anyone resist painting that? This scary guy is Renato Ramirez, from Hasslefree. Not sculpted by Kevin White, but Tom Meier and is part of the Legends of Golo range (HFGGL1).
A brilliant sculpt that simply reeks character (his long-johns reeks of something entirely else...) and was a pleasure to paint.

As always, clicks enlarge - although viewer discretion advised.

Hasslefree describe him thusly:

In the dark near future of the zombie apocalypse some people thrive, others go a little crazy, but every now and again someone grows a Hitler moustache and throws on long johns and a tutu and starts shotgunning things!

A crazy little sculpt by the ridiculously talented Tom Meier.

Think I need to touchup his boots...

Zombicide: Last of the walkers painted!

Hello all,
Well wouldn't you know it - the last walkers have been (very) slowly painted, and with them the entire set of zombies and survivors from Zombicide is done. I deserve a medal :-).
Anyways, before we turn to the pictures, there is a blog I would like to direct your attention to - most of you probably know the Laughing Ferret for his amazing paintjobs and brilliant conversions, but he also regularly posts interesting "rants" and personal accounts. One such was concerning how we,a s people, are not always smiling, hell msot of us have deep personal sinkholes we sink into once in a while. Yet we do not discuss this as much as we should, and if you are are one of those people who experience this stuff (which I also do) I would recommend reading this post, and acknowledge that you are not alone.

Anyways, on to the pictures!
Here they are, a complete set:

And a few shots of the last to enter the shambling painted horde:

Zombicide: Conversion inspiration for Fatty Zombies

Hello all,
While slaving through the Fatty horde, I got bored and looked what people had been converting these into. Foudn quite a fun collection and thought I would share these:

The first group was made by Vincy (Vinsssounet), a very talented chap:

Love the santa!

Wish I had thought of doing a fatty-elvis to go with my Bobba from Hasslefree...
A few Walkers from Vincy as well:

A few conversions from Luca Turini, more fun than the above:

Zombicide: Finished Fatties - all painted!

Hello all,
I made it through the fatty horde and got them all painted. A fine mini but difficult to vary and quite boring in the end. Did manage to sneak quite a few conversions into the mix to alleviate the boredom :-)

Not much to say on these so just enjoy the pretty pictures :-):

Zombicide: Last batch of Fatties painted - cowboys and more 'Easy Entrails'

Hello all,
Last batch of the Fatties painted. The first group sports more entrails made with Clay-Doh (or Play-Doh) - the guide to which can be found here.
Pretty easy, cheap and effective technique. The centre guy has har half his head cut of, likely from a katana.

Just goes to show that the job desciption of a zombie is pretty forgiving.

The second batch has a chap who has lost his hand, though fromt he looks of the wound he might have been a bit hungry...

The other chap has a fancy cowboy hat on. I found this amongst my sons toys and figured it woulld look fun, and thus J.R. Zombie was born.

Good fun, and here is a shot of them all together.

Last of the fatties, and I won't be sad never to paint another of that particular type of zombie again...

Alternate Survivors: Hasslefree Children

Hello all,

I bought a large batch of miniatures from Hasslefree Miniatures. Thye are all great sculpts and have excellent detail and poses. I guess the best way to desribe them is that it is difficult to resist painting them - they keep creeping forward in the painting que :-). Actually, these have all been painted already, but If igured I would introduce them before showing my painted versions of them.

This time I thought I might need a group of children. I'll use these as either survivors or as objectives for a game - it will probably motivate everyone more to accomplish voluntary objectives when it is a small adorable child, rather than a piece of cardboard...

First of a size comparison with our friendly neighbourhood Abomination and Mad-Dog (Hasslefree)

The first two are the big brother and sister, they both look like they've already had a taste of the new future. They are HFA009 Peter and HFA010 Katie.

The next little group are Hasslefree's HFV008 Village Kiddies. Apparently they are supposed to medieval villagers, but I see no reason why they couldn't fit into a modern environment. Excellent details on these, especially considering just how tiny they are. The little girl felt more like painting a 15mm miniature than a 28mm.

And the juvenile survivors all together:

Zombicide!: Mission Complete: All Runner Zombies Painted

Hello all,
Wuhuu, with the completion of the last batch of runner zombies from Zombicide I've finally managed to paint every single running bugger from the first Season.

Mommy?

That is twenty Runners, enough to ruin anyones post-apocalyptic picnic.

BTW, the cute little girl is from Hasslefree Miniatures - a brilliant little sculpt, but so bloody tiny!

And here they are in their cosy storage chest from Sally 4th - this is becoming quite box of trouble.

Anyways, thanks for reading - if you found the post interesting then any comments or tips (commercial clicks :-), it all goes towards more miniatures, you know) are greatly appreciated!

Zombicide!: Last of the Runner Zombies Painted

Hello all,
With this batch of eight (poorly) painted runners, I've finally manaed to get all the bloody joggers done.

Mommy!

 I must admit that while these are great sculpts and portray a fast-moving zombie well, they were somewhat boring to paint at the end. I might have to go back and touch up a runner here and there, but for now they are done, done, and done!

Daddy?

Yes, one chap is missing his head - I figure he is working on muscle reflexes, sort of like a headless hen... His head was chopped of and put on the base of Goth Amy...

Anyone, please!?!

Zombicide!: Last Abomination Painted

Hello all,
Finally managed to get the alst of the Abominations painted from the first set. As there can only ever be one on the board at a time, this guy was low priority, but at the end I decided he deserved to be painted and join the Zombie Hordes.

I want my Mom!

A brilliant model, although the feet are a bit weird - means mucho blood must be added. The spikes are supposedly glass splinters but as this is impossible to paint for someone of my limited abilities, I've gone with bone shards.

Don't come any closer or I'll call for my dad!

And the two bad guys in their nice and cosy home, along with the fatties and runners. A box full of serious trouble. Pandora's box?

Storage solution thanks to Sally 4th

Zombicide!: Walkers converted into Crawlers - Easy Entrails...

Hello all,
I've had some fun with two of the last walker zombies from the first season of Zombicide.
For some reason there were none of the archetypical 'crawler' type zombies. To remedy this, I chopped the legs of two walkers and, hey presto, crawlers!

But, what I wanted to share was an easy way to produce great looking entrails that I discovered in the process. Now, you could use green stuff or something similar, but that is expensive and takes time.
Me, I've got kids playing with clay-do all the time and this always leaves tons of the stuff on the floor afterwards. If you shape this into the shape you need, and apply some super glue to its surface, it will dry as rock hard, or harder, than green stuff.

Here is the stuff before paint and blood:

 And once the glue has dried, by an application of paint and blood it will look very much like entrails. Very easy, cheap, and fun :-).
