Title: Punk rocker and fat zombie
Post by: CptJake on April 19, 2011, 05:17:25 PM

I recently finished painting 'Joe' from Hasslefree minis.   I've named him Wattie.   Also is a Horrorclix mod and repaint.  It was a fat lady on a stool, I tooke her off the stool, made a green stuff butt, and rpainted her as a zombie.

Enjoy!

Excellent painting and nice conversion on the zombie.
Though her appearance did cause me to loose my appetite for lunch.
nice work on the rubbish bins asa well.

That is so wrong that it's right!

Good work all around!

Great use of that Fatlady clix, I'll have to nick this idea (off to eBay...).
The lollipop on her behind is the icing on the cake.

The clicky figure is called Hungry Bertha, I got it for 49 cents at Troll and Toad after seeing someone else's repaint of her.

Thanks for the compliments folks.  I rarely get a chance to paint lately. Actually getting a couple figures done motivates me to find time to do more.

I have that mini too, but I never noticed the lollipop before! :-)

Any hints on repainting the somewhat softer plastic used for the HorrorClix figures? I'm thinking about maybe improving the paint on some of mine, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

I washed it with dish soap and a brush, let it dry, then primed with white gesso.   The used the usual cheap craft acrylic paints and a Vallejo color or two...

Seemd to work.  It is the first clicky figure I have painted though.
