What's in your head? Zombie, Zombie

     Zombicide Black Plague is a 1-6 player game by CMON games, where players fight against a necromancer, hordes of zombies and nightmarish abominations. The box comes with 70 zombies to paint up. Most are generic, but there are two special zombies, Runners and "Fatties" as the manual calls them. The player controls your typical dwarf, human, and elf characters. While slaying zombies, your character instantly improves in skill.

     My goal right now is to paint up one hero, the necromancer, abomination as well as enough zombies to fill up the rest of the board (probably like 20 for solo). Basing every miniature was probably a bit much, but I did pick a simple three colour scheme for the zombies, mixing colours between hats, shirts and pants, hoping it would speed up painting. This is what I have finished so far.




    Ooops, those pictures probably could have been a bit clearer. If you couldn't see it, there are 12 zombies, with 2 "bulky" zombies and 3 runners in the mix. 

    After painting up a small batch, I might start another three colour scheme to add in a bit more variety. 70 in this colour scheme might blend in too much. There are some accessories that haven't been accented with their own colours, I might come back to finish those once the other zombies are done, for now these are finished.

    I wasn't going to count this towards Monster Mayhem as they aren't nearly monstrous enough for the challenge. The real monster here is my photography!
