Just meant to paint a handful as a break from painting soldiers, but zombies turned out to be just too darn fun.

26 zombies for me. Braaiiiins.

Nice zombies!

I've set myself a goal to paint 100 zombies. It doesn't have a deadline. Mantic is releasing some new Zombies soon. There are so many different ones out there in 25/28mm scale.

Marauder Dwarf handgunners:

Unreleased Marauder Dwarf general:

Not a completely new paintjob, but rather a make-over of an existing one:

The standardbearer (but not the other one)

Awesome stuff! Are these from Perry's "Mafeking"?

I painted a lone viking (Crusader):

A French machine-gunner (Scarab):

A tiny (=cute) Force of Arms FT-17:

A heroic French leader (Copplestone):

Not a lot but much better than june

That’s really nice work Pentaro. I really like how clean your painting style is. I especially like your WWI stuff (it’s one of my favourites period). I like how you’ve painted the Copplestone figure and the name of the tank make me smile when I saw it!

Pentaro · « **Reply #20 on:** August 01, 2010, 10:28:39 PM »

Thanks! I must admit I copied it - there's a real tank with that name in Zaloga's Osprey book. I love Jules Verne and tanks bog down a lot in the "Mud & Blood" rules, so I had to use that name. Hmm, seeing that picture reminded me that I didn't paint any identification on it!

Yes, and very nice they are too.

As usual, a day or two late with my offerings (mainly due to photographing them...)
25 various figures, a large chunk being a Warmachine Khador force

Larger pics on my Photobucket site (until I get them on my website)

@Dolmot.
Always look forward to your stuff

Are trees just mashed up turf glued on a base?

Thanks again. The trees are pine and spruce cones covered with turf. They're cheap to make and come in many suitable shapes. You can put them on separate bases or glue a few together to make a freely standing group. Epoxy or hot glue are good choices for that job. Then just use wet PVA layers or some kind of varnish to hold the turf tightly. £5 will easily buy the materials for a whole forest.

Second page after two days into the new month? You keep amazing me, guys.

Here's what I've done so far, mostly stuff finished during the last days, lying around since June (before the heat wave screwed up my painting schedule).

16th Light Dragoons for the AWI

Two Elven maids (the third seen here before)

And a few other models, that I've not yet taken photos of because the basing is still to be done: Namely some Neo-Tsarist guerrilla and some Greek hoplites.
