Paint Table Saturday II: Postcards from Siberia


If it's Saturday it must be time to lament how little I've done hobby-wise of late. Weather's been crap, work's been busy (in part because the weather's been crap), had a bit of a cold (likely due to the weather being crap), feels like I've spent most of my free time shoveling snow (definitely due to the weather being crap). Did I mention that the weather weather's been crap?

Luckily things aren't nearly as bad as all that. The right team won the Superbowl and some progress has been made on a trio of zombies. In keeping with PTS custom, a picture of my workspace:


Seen here are a doombringer from Studio 2 Publishing flanked by two Heresy zombies. For the purposes of the The Fiend Folio Project, they serve as a Revenant and two Coffer Corpses. In particular, the Studio 2 miniature's hooded cloak jibes well with Russ Nicholson's Revenant illustration from the FF.  

A more detailed WIP of the three as they now stand:


An earlier WIP of the Revenant with just the base colors laid down:


A 28mm pinkie; easily the smallest thing I've ever sculpted:


Right on cue it's started snowing again. No lie. Like I said, the weather's been crap.

      Thanks, Simon. Not sure if it was a slight mis-cast or intentional, but either way the pinkie started out as a nub. Something needed to be done. The trick was getting the new finger to match the others on the hand.

    Now I do like those; more rotting corpses added to the wish list. (that just sounds wrong!)

      Thank you, Michael. Gotta love those rotting corpses. (That sounds even more wrong... possibly illegal.)
