Zombicide Rue Morgue Skinner Zombies

Zombies? Again?

Yeah….

Zombicide Rue Morgue Skinner Walkers

I do have a bunch of other stuff to show (so far) from this month, but I have a mental order of operations I want to use when posting this month’s models, and getting these zombies out of the way first is part of that.

These particular zombies are the last batch of the ones I’d hoped to finish off last month in June, but I’ve only managed to complete them yesterday. The fatties are the main reason there – they are just so packed with annoying details and aren’t a lot of fun to paint. But… they’re necessary if we want to play the next Zombicide campaign, Rue Morgue with painted models.

At this point I think we have enough walkers and even crawlers to play, but with only three runners and now four fatties – and no Abominations, it’ll still be a little while as I change my focus for the next few weeks to other models, and of course – terrain!
This will probably be the last regular zombie post for the month, but the next post will be some Zombicide-related terrain, and we might still see a couple of the aforementioned Abominations or even a Marvel Zombies model or two amongst the scenery…

Zombicide Rue Morgue Survivors & Zombivors Dan & Maddie

I did not get much Zombicide completed in the last couple of months – so if I’m hoping to ever complete this mega project of 1st edition I need to pull my fist out. So then, we have this pair of characters from Rue Morgue – Dan the Fireman and Maddie, the …angry Twitter user? Seriously, her profile states “Maddie doesn’t think about her past anymore. All she sees are the simple facts of life and death, and right now she’s at war. A war against zombies in general and capitalist zombie pigs in particular!” She certainly looks like someone who fits the part there, anyway!

Dan was a pretty straightforward mini to paint – nothing crazy here nor anything really worth discussing, really. I used flouro yellow over the top of regular yellow for his satety stripes and added the ones in on his pants, so with the flouro, he pops a little more in real life.

Maddie on the other hand took ages to get finished – with a big break of several weeks until the final push to get her finished. She’s another one of those unnecessarily busy models with too much happening – I thought she was another one of the “I am Legend” KS backers but apparently not – she must be someone at Guillotine’s friend instead given the level of finnicky details – teddy bear, suspenders, 2 bound wounds, fucking buttons on her cutoff vest, etc. The mace she’s weilding is a little weird as well, and on the artwork it’s got something on it, so I painted it as an 8-ball.

Anyway, another two Survivors and Zombivors down! We’re nearing the end of the endless stream of boxed-game survivors, though there’s still more than a few “inspired by” Survivors and then “Guest Artist Box” Survivors to go after that.
