The zombie with the Flash t-shirt is brilliant.  Is his name Sheldon?

I try not to get too attached to the walkers (or the survivors for that matter) so there aren't any names :D .  I just finished up my retail Negan.  I think this is a much more dynamic and characterful model than the KS exclusive.  He is looking badass and that half smile says that he is having a good time causing hurt.  It was a fun model to paint because I liked the sculpt so much.

And nice work on that face (and dark grey/blacks of his clothes).

Thanks for the positive feedback.  I felt that Negane was one of the better paint jobs I'd manged in a while.

I got that cop from a couple post back finished up.  I have two other officers waiting in the wings as well.  My plan is to use spares I havve to make up a small Atlanta PD faction.  With three built I'd probably only have to make up another 3 worst case scenario.  I also ordered some Atlanta police transfers so when I pick up another 1/43 cruiser I will be able to give the group a ride.

I got Rick on horseback done.  I'm happy how he came out but with the reind, horse, and duffel bag taking turns getting in the way it was a real pain in the ass by times.  A while back I'd admired images other contributors had presented done with Prisma filters.  My poor old phone died but now I have apps to screw with and understand why those darned kids are always playing with their phones :P .

Very good.

I have not bought that figure, having never managed to paint a horse well enough (they keep moving.... ^__^).

Man, you are powering through them with some very nice painting (and I'm searching for that app now...).

@von Lucky  I have 9 more models to complete and all of waves 1&2 (excepting Lee and Clem to this point :P ) will be done.  I'm following some leads for procurement on wave 3 but my plan is to have everything done before I get more stuff.  In addition to the main cast and walkers I've put together around 10 custom figures from spares.

@Ultravanillasmurf  Horses can be intimidating (real and models :D ) .  I paint their coats more like flesh than fur.  Years ago I got a figure painting book that tackled horses in a couple pages.

@Marine0846  What are you picking up?  For the most part they are really nice models and a lot of fun to paint.

@ivor13  Me too!  My grand ambition if I can get everything together is a solo campaign reported with filtered images.  Until then I at least hope to use the app for more glam shots.

horridperson@

I picked up the "core pack" and also the" days gone by pack".
Have painted all 18 figures from the core pack in the last week.
Plan to do a small game on Friday.
Hope to post some photos after done playing.
Might even get the figures painted from "days gone by".
I am retired, so more time to paint than most.
But I have to stay off of LAF. (like that will ever happen.) :`
