My turn to kick us off, with a few lovely metal ‘civilians’ and some scatter from Midlam Miniatures. Or at least they looked lovely before I slapped paint on ‘em lol

Zombie horde is done, now it is time to trick some things out for my survivors. Here's a scratch-build (actually modification) of a rolling mobile home to survive the zombie apocalypse!

You're welcome! lol
I like those spawn points. Currently, I'm just using the front entrance to one of the buildings on the table as the spawn point. So, the zombies come boiling out of an apartment, gas station, whatever.... :D

Took advantage of the Bears vs Jags game being on the TV to get some painting done.
First up, a dwarf slayer.

How could you concentrate on painting such wonderful figures while the bears were crushing the hapless jaguars? lol Nice work.

A platoon of 10, 3-D printed imperial stormtroopers, three "walkers" from Wiley Games resin miniatures (BLST3R), and a new Acheson Creations Sci-Fi building.

In addition to be legendary bad shots, stormtroopers are a pain in the butt to paint, as I discovered!
(https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWT3fiExOu-DNIENY95qCmF7_W_q9v7nBi30yEb5lQvHly__FWaSfBjjflSnXCuzJAscI_uTcJCX7H6OZkdcsGP7ygKTxE-CB8r01_JmJ0cJOwkrnUHXgYuvOy6zkGfPFfb6Goo7HhDk0XhbhNIFwczVZo_ySF4sxqwzBn6MbNMVfIw0fa2ErSf7fFrp8/w640-h506/Walkers_Front.jpg)
The walkers weren't nearly as bad, though now I wish I had decide against metallic color accents and gone with flat colors instead. Oh well...

Bunch'o'stuff this month
Reaper giant bats and were-bat
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczMyADkJM-MzgO668Icwba7eBKJ3SjiTLfdsdKmL-ifXOjtCVGWm74mGSa7OkvPFGA7j_Ro2DWUR63-L-UpsMjOvitOh62OzgEDZqd0-R92rpmrDPIAVobP7rapnMfu8ZgEkF3a2Mx9Lm-AlWNDsmtUO=w892-h490-s-no?authuser=0)
Reaper bat swarms (mix of metals and Bones USA) + 1 I've had for ages
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczPsQu2mvjDvnIf24V4xm1QIyxmOdsj08Mx01Io-3gZMlWUou82xdXnZ5g05BH0Ioc7OwDVvvX-LGDU_jUHPWT1zOCWdGkqgdD1bMH_Ko9nmwVqCC5P1pJUL3hYM_CDhBXDOczrWcLSSddksPPV-rc01=w892-h490-s-no?authuser=0)
I backed the Zombicide: Invader KS a few years ago and these were in the KS extras box.
Xenomoths Spawn
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczMQTnkmMYlo9kUQftpufe1mwcgveBw_Fs4eyc-J6PgWwpV7Yi64lIZjKJdVRW5tduOT4VagUQ37bUKh2oYvh9FTDEufVKRjvu16qilOyFtJ72ttjAcDRAr2rBbu5LCGoZmQ1p2T6QPORbgeSSjOeMPp=w892-h490-s-no?authuser=0)
Flingers Spawn
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczMLLson5RdBzW9f477yhae-N5f57RV7jwPyXjX2dKSgFrO5TGPVRz3Z54Ip6JymLxqxgV2gjJgwKjA3Qsmp5Ko33xLzpjnOOmFe2LfqJEN1DhL_t1MnGUXvpNA5ZSCNzHOG_SriTp2YcsLtuQFXKNp7=w861-h490-s-no?authuser=0)
Finally, some spawn points for When Nightmares Come (and others). I should have shown them against a figure, but the pentacles are all 25mm diameter. The skinny ones are keyrings I found on Amazon, while the chunkier ones I made and printed myself. The "crystals" are 3d printed shaps stuck in Milliput.
(https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczMnPOQMulvG5e_eEwLKqknhrJGxqUkGV5TPyUZu9aX5p4ILKqIwWi34DAcMRZq26D80Hs4dt6-HwtMXIr9H5hr8SApnDdyA1zx48Fwv8AhwwGCoGU7cQqCvcirixA64VglRj43eohEHVoWD7-WOer3i=w1005-h490-s-no?authuser=0)

Some more stuff for the town. Vesna designs printed by Warhammer Rose, paint slapped on by me. The Baker is from the Midlam stuff I posted earlier.

It took awhile, but a painted a big batch (for me) of 12 various types of droids. Here's a group shot:
(https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNlyd4T4UEWGOBNOWYSjugzBb9FMeLpwPYIwkBdLaFKZw4vabdBLZOIXVo4MZz5sbrRPamtH08gRBUA-bex2timS57TbMWyxM-MilDi8TpfICaZUlkfC8YrO8zkCdqEiVQt8GQLAyioL-Q60EzqHTdKvSqY4n_zOOMvhrPwTVLWkRRmZQVlglUGrLhR6o/w640-h250/DroidBigBatch_All.jpg)
They came from various places, including modifying 3-D printed scatter scenery, Hydra Miniatures "Retro Raygun" line, and Reviresco Miniatures from RRB Minis & More. Here's a look below at two of the Retro Raygun ones.

Another batch of orcs for Orctober. Mostly Splintered Light miniatures and Demonworld figures. Now to base them…
-
And the orcs are based. I also ended up with extra 4 warriors not shown in the photo - I’ll probably dig one more out of the pile to finish up one more base, but won’t have that finished by midnight. I missed my Orctober target by 4 figures (2 giant trolls, a goblin shaman and the shaman’s wolf) but overall I’m happy with how the army grew this year.
-
Those are looking great!
-
Thanks! I’m planning on finishing up the trolls and goblin shaman, then doing some army pics for my fantasy thread. The orc army is now at a mature stage - I’ll add a few units occasionally but it has what I want for gaming.
