Reaper Bones 80023: Horace "Action" Jackson

Today I have a model from one of the Bones campaigns. It’s a model that I started a few years ago since it looked like it could fit in with various Zombie games and such. As it’s made from the original Bones material, it’s not something that I managed to finish until last weekend when I asked Marouda to choose a model from the desk for me to finish painting. She chose three, and I’ve completed two of them so far…

It’s a fairly simple and straightforward model, though I had trouble deciding on the scheme for it, and actually overpainted my previous effort last weekend. I eventually looked up some images of Undercover Brother to get some ideas.

I didn’t enjoy working on this model at all. If you like the look of the sculpt, I’d recommend spending just a couple of dollars more and getting the metal version – at least then you’ll get a model with sharper detail, a non-mushy face, and you’ll know it won’t be tacky and all paints will work fine on it rather than being forced to only use Reaper HD paints. You can then also pick up a Cool Sister model to go with your Undercover Brother.

February 2022 – Personal Painting Round-Up

Uh….. yeah. I know it’s April and this is more than a little late. I wanted to get the Fembruary challenge round-up done, and then I was concentrating on the Monster March posts. Also, there’s a couple of models I wanted to finish to go with some of these for a proper post, but I didn’t get those done (until literally just a few minutes before the time of typing this, ironically.)

A good chunk of the February models were all 18 of the “Fatties” from the Zombicide core set – boardgame models, but not terrible ones. I’ve got a dozen or so of the “Runners” almost ready, so I’ll hopefully get onto them in April. 

I also quite enjoyed getting Warrior Woman from Col.Schaeffer’s Last Chancers done, so I’ve gotten the rest of the team out and so far managed to get them glued down to bases. Since getting started on finishing them in February, I’ve also finally completed my Chaos Dwarf Blood Bowl team – excepting one (or maybe two) missing model(s)!

Following on from January’s rather productive 71 models (well, that was bumped pretty significantly by 15mm walls) – I managed to complete 35 models in February which does at least more than meet my personal “1 model for each day” goal for each month. it also gives (gave) me 106 models completed by the end of February. Now onto the March round-up  – hopefully in a few days!
