September 2023 Monthly Round-Up

Another late round-up. I’ve had these photos for some time, but I just wasn’t feeling like cropping them for the post, and then as we got closer to my surgery date that meant that I had to spend extra time getting stuff ready at work for my impending absence, and simply didn’t feel like blogging at all. Now I’ve had the surgery, I’m still a bit messed up as far as sleep and movement goes, but it’s time to get this thing out into the world and out of the way.

September featured some more late completions of “Season of Scenery” models, with those mostly being from Marvel Crisis Protocol as well as a few small pieces from the Archon Terrain sets that had been hanging around here forever.

Along with that was my latest run of Toxic Zombies for Zombicide. I’d painted a bunch of Fatties in the past, but picked up a few more since then – so I got the new ones done as well as my first batch of several Toxic Runners. Boy, those are fun to work on! I also got a couple of the larger Zombicide 2nd Edition Abominations completed with Cthulhu and The Mummy.

I also finished a few more Cthulhu: Death May Die models, though I appear to have mistakenly added one extra investigator into the group shot here – similarly, I’ve got one too many Spider-Men from Marvel Zombies in here as well apparently!

A couple more Zombicide survivors, a Hasslefree Dirty Harry, a random Chaos Warhound, Crisis Protocol Logan and another pair of Colonel Schaeffer’s Last Chancers pretty much bring us to the end of September’s models. Not a terrible month overall with 37 models completed – a hell of a lot mroe than I’ve gotten done in October!

Given that I was up to 294 at the end of August this makes my September total 331. Closing in on that magical 365, but really not sure how many I’ll have done by year’s end with me still being a bit out of the painting game as I recover and the busiest time of year in place when I return to work…

  1. Sorry to hear you have been struggling since the op, and can totally relate on the movement and disturbed sleep, hope it gets better soon for you. As always your roundups astound with both quantity and quality of work, hope things settle down for you soon so you can return to you’re painting.

  5. The terrain really looks good in these pictures. Its impressive how much of it you got finished too. I hope you’re feeling better and better each day and I hope you can get back to painting regularly soon.

    • Thanks Alex. It’s certainly less fun than I’d expected. I kinda thought of it as two weeks off work with a lot of enforced sitting involved, but it’s more low-key painful than expected as well as having a much trickier sleep situation.
      Who could have expected medically mandated recovery time off work to actually *need* to be used for recovery? 😮
