And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
Edgar Allan Poe
Zomtober rolls on with the second of Wyrd's aquatic zombies painted in similar colors to last week's contestant. Putting a greenish-blue dress on a blueish-green zombie initially seemed dicey but in the end things pulled together nicely I think.

The sea-creatures-on-the-base theme continues with my tribute to two of the more terrifying figures in today's popular culture.

I was trying to set a mood when I started this thing. Guess that's shot to hell.
Some more pictures and I'll be on my way:
Superb! Beautifully painted, and modelled.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Roy. Never underestimate the power of green stuff and too much time on ones hands :P
DeleteThat is just stunning, an outstanding piece of work Sir.
ReplyDeleteYou're very kind. Thank you, Michael.
DeleteFantastic work! One of the good points of Zomtober is finding excellent posts like this one! Love the painting and theme of that mini!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Chris. I have discovered your Zomtober efforts as well. You've been added to the Zomtober blogroll.
DeleteCheers, Finch. I appreciate it.
DeleteEverybody else has stolen the adjectives I wanted to use.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Brilliant painting dude!
Nothing worse than pilfered adjectives. Thank you, Bob.
DeleteI love the colours very much! This is a fantastic piece of work. Well done indeed. ^_^
ReplyDeleteThank you, sir. Suppressed the urge to introduce a flashier color for the dress. Thought it best to preserve the contrast between the rust and everything else.
DeleteThat is absolutely fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Simon.
