April-November 2024 Multi-Monthly Round-Up

First up, I hope everyone has had a safe and happy Christmas and didn’t overeat by too much!

I’m here today not just to wish you all a wonderful festive season, but also to hit the backlog of (non) posts a little. Despite not actively blogging much for some time, I’ve still been keeping my hand on the brush somewhat, and so I’ve got this round-up to get done, and then I’ll smash out a post or two with everything painted since this one.

Yeah, there’s a fair bit here, but for 8 months worth of round-up, you’d want and expect it to be, right? At this point I’ll shut up and let the pictures do the talking.

So what we have here is:

20 FOW Walls & Fountains.
20 3D Printed ASOIAF Walls & Hedges.
3 Crisis Protocol Heroes.
2 Endless Spells.
1 MCP Building.
1 Zombicide Tower.
24 Kill Team Barricades.
5 Sector Mechanicus Hatches.
4 Zombicide Black Plague Hatches.
15 Crowz.
23 Massive Darkness/Nolzurs Chests.
6 Pandemic Research Stations.
36 Toxic Zombies.
6 Marvel United Heroes.
6 Marvel Zombies.
43 Zombie Dogz.
29 Ungor.
1 Ogre.
2 Giant Undead or Alive Abominations (Abominape & Crocosaur)
5 Judges.
6 Punk Zombies.
11 Mantic Undead (M).

So a total of 269 models here, including giant models, terrain pieces, as well as tiny bits of scatter terrain and 15mm walls.

At the end of March, I had 90 models completed for the year. With these few additions (counting Marouda’s contribution) we’re up to 359. Huh, not as bad as I’d feared, given the slow pace some of this has has as well as the on-again, off-again nature of my 2024 paint journey.

See you again Soon!(tm)

Zombicide Black Plague Wulfsberg: Zombie Wolfz

Zombicide Black Plague Wulfsberg: Zombie Wolfz

Another Zombicide post today – this time dealing with something tangental to what we’re playing – my collection of Zombie Wolfz (yes, with a z).

Zombicide Black Plague Wulfsberg: Zombie Wolfz

With a whole lot of these Wolfz to paint, I decided I wanted to vary them and split them into groups with different fur tones. I settled on White, Black, Brown in smaller groups and also two larger groups each of Light Grey and Dark Grey – and then varied them a little within each batch.

I also wanted to try and reflect the whole “overgrown urban or rural” basing effect that I used on the Crowz, in order to leave the models looking approriate for other fantasy gaming as well as not being too onerous to add. I found some plasticard with a small cobblestone texture and By adding some cracked and broken tiles, with a bit of dry grass to tie them in with the original five of these.

With two sets of Wulfberg (one from the Kickstarter, and one picked up in the last year cheap) I have 43 Wolfz. Apparently each set of Wulfsberg comes with 22, and there were a bonus “three more Wolfz” from the KS, so I should have 47. I also have 4 of the Wolfbominations to be painted soon(er or later) so I’m not sure what’s going on there as the KS came with one extra, not two (did I get two copies of Wulfsberg in the KS? Are there even more of these Wolfz hiding in an unopened box somewhere? I guess at the very least there’s a few lost Wolfz somewhere – possibly lost in transit somewhere, or possibly knocked off the painting desk by Leonard…

As you can see, we’re now got a nice little(!) zombie-wolfpac that can be turned into at least a couple of units for Kings of War as well – their army lists are pretty flexible, so I’m sure I can fit them into something when we get back to KoW.

That’s it for this lot – my last post of October-Apocalyptic models for Dave’s Apocalypse Me challenge, and leaving me with only one more post for the last of my stuff to be caught up to October.
