lol, my exclamation is hard to translate in english... and not very polite.
that's gorgeus!

I'd say to work more on the umbrella sign. the highlits are nice, but too strong. it should look more like a drawing!
you're achieving amazing standards, Mr D!

Cheers pal, one day I might even get my arse in gear and get my hands on some of your minis

Cheers pal, yes agreed something about the logo doesnt sit right with me either.  And if i ever want to acheive my person goal of one day in the far future winning big at Golden Demon I am going to have to acheive higher and higher and then even higher standards, all about practice, paint, paint and paint some more and try new techniques.  Only thing that can stop me is my own self doubt, which does rear it's ugly head.......usually soon after being in a room with a Mr Merritt.  Knowing my luck though, by the time i reach that standard GW will have gone into liquidation :D

I think the umbrella corp symbol has a little too much depth for, as I read it, a T shirt print, don't get me wrong, looks nice and all but probably not what ultimately you're looking to achieve, maybe lose some of the shading?

Still looks great, just don't take the black any more blue. ;)

Could've done a Devon flag though! Represent! :D

cheers pal.  dont take the black any more blue....you have lost me, it aint any blue on the black.  Devon flag would have been a great idea but I never thought of it, but in my defense as you well know I am a grockle :P

Little update.......

finsihed the base last night..........

and managed to **** it up as well in a 2 part resin related disaster, will post pictures of the "failure" later before I restart it.

Failure, although after chipping some of the crap off it tonight it's not as bad as I thought, but still the new one will be perfect (I hope)



new one

Thanks pal.  I think that the new one will be better for a number of reasons though, the first one was just the arm so it goes, hand, wrist, forearm, elbow and then nothing........whereas the new zombie is the entire torso and (not pictured) his spine and entrails hanging which will be just visible in the murky water.

Although I am not decided as to whether to have him mostly out the water almost at the top or just his forearms and face pocking out....thoughts on either option?
