Lookin' great! 

How did you make the tarmac table, btw? Or did you already tell earlier?

That's actually a flexible terrain mat from what seems to be the now out of business theterrainguy. I got it in grey for use with cityfight.

As promised here is a step by step on how I paint my zombies in mass. We had unseasonably warm weather this weekend with temperatures near 70 degrees! So taking advantage of that I broke out my mantic zombies! These will be the zombies I use that spawn off the event cards. These are the really long dead zombies with tattered clothing. I am doing a batch of 40 zombies with 60 more on deck.

Step 1

After priming the figure black, base coat all the skin in dark flesh. I used a big brush and also got the clothing. No biggie




Step 2

Using Army painter Bone spray give a light dusting at an angle representing a light source. This will catch the top front areas leaving the lower areas dark. Dust the front and back! This looks rough I know, but stick with it, the wash will do its magic.




Step 3

Wash the flesh areas with Ogryn Flesh Wash. As you can see it darkens and somewhat pink'ens the color.




Step 4

Dust with white, again at an angle using the spray as a light source




Step 5

Wash the flesh areas with Ogryn Flesh again



Step 6

Paint the tattered clothing your choice of colors. I prefer more earth tones and found the Flames of War US Paint set to be exactly what I wanted color wise




I still have to wash the clothing devlan mud, paint the eyes, hair, and wash the wounds with baal red but this is as far as I got this evening.

Thank you very much! I hope people can take something away from this because I got nearly ALL of these ideas from other people that inspired me as well!

Finished 40 of the 100 Mantic Zombies. Pictures look a little rough..and the bases still need to be finished.
