Zombicide Rue Morgue Abominations

Zombicide Rue Morgue Abominations

Another quick Zombie one today – I’ve had these two taking up space on the painting desk for a couple of months, and as I’ve gotten the rest of the half-painted Rue Morgue Skinner Zombies finished (as opposed to the many, many ones that have not made it to the desk yet!) these two were the last Zeds standing. In the way.

They’re not especially interesting as painting projects really. The thing that was kinda holding me up on them – aside from wanting to get the other more straightforward (walkers) and painful (fatties) Zombies out of the way first so I could figure out how I wanted to differentiate the soft fleshy parts of these “dried up’ zombie types from the hard carapace and spiky bits.

In the end I just went for some layered washes to make them a bit more fleshy. I’ve left them largely unbloodied for now aside from their bases – as I figure I can make a firm decision on how I want to add blood and gore to them once I’ve got the other Abominations painted – and then do them all at once.

As you can see, they’re pretty big when compared to the other Zombie types from Rue Morgue – as you’d expect from Abominations. That’s all the Zombicide for the time being (probably!)

Brease’s “Guillotine for 28mm Miniatures Gaming” – 3D Print for Zombicide Pariz

So recently we picked up “Zombicide: Pariz” – even though we’re not likely to play it anytime soon, given the play queue – with CMON’s current financial issues it kinda felt like a “buy it or don’t/FOMO” opportunity. Looking into it a little bit, it turns out that this version of Zombicide, set in the eponymous city features “trees” (check), “trapdoors” (check) and a Guillotine.

Kind of weird that this is the first guillotine featured in the series, given the studio behind the game.

Anyway, after reading this, I had a quick gander to see if there was a decent, free STL of one of these death machines out there, and I found this one – Guillotine for 28mm Miniatures Gaming by a 3D artist called “Brease”.

Shortly afterwards, the model was added to Flippy’s work queue, and then over the course of several days, I gave it a simple paintjob, suitable for the tabletop. The rope doesn’t have a spiral texture sculpted in, but it was pretty simple to paint in some diagonal lines to give it the effect.

And now I’ve finally managed to show off a model for Dave Stone’s Season of Scenery, 2025 edition! I’ve just found out that Dave is going through a bit of a rough time health-wise right now, so Marouda and I are hoping to hear from Dave that he’s made a speedy and smooth recovery – hope to see you posting again soon, mate!
