What's occurrin' then?
Well it seems that the summer holidays are well and truly here. My daughter has been finished for several weeks (it feels like months, she can be very demanding). Now, my son is home from university for six weeks. Let the chaos reign! Hobby time will probably be curtailed as I attempt to entertain the little darlings.
I had to take a breather from the storage shed, more on that next time, and paint some mini's. It's been over a month since I painted a figure! Where the fuck does the time go? (I know, entropy and decay. It was rhetorical.)
OK, so on with the cultural mission. Another great piece by Bryan Baugh. More monochromatic goodness this time, with a lovely damsel in distress again. This one's called Cosmic Zombie. Enjoy!
Yeah, over a month since I painted a figure, not good enough really. I'll never finish at this rate. A little rusty too, my standards are dropping by the day. Still got some done the last few days.
These are the first of the female Toxic walkers, nothing much to say about them, straight out of the box. So no conversions but the sculpts are quite nice as they are.
I guess some introductions are in order. So from left to right as usual. First up, she was working as a waitress at a cocktail bar, it's Adyna. Next in line, a car rental receptionist, Cordelia. Following her, primary school teacher Sioned. Finally, for this time, we have Mab. She's a barmaid.
Again, I've edged the bases in bright green to denote them as Toxic zombies.
My posting seems to be all over the shop at the moment, so a concerted effort will be made to get things back on track. If the summer holidays allow that is!
No real news in other areas either. At least the WNI(Wednesday Night Irregulars) are gathering again this evening to save the world from the zombie menace. Best go put the kettle on!
Well, I guess that's all I got for now dudes and dudettes. So until next time, try and be more like the DUDE and "take it easy".

The cultural elevation is on point with this week's offering Bob. Good to see some pained zombies but they seem to be shimmying more than shambling to me. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Robert.
DeleteAbout time with the zombies if I'm honest. Shimmying, shambling it's all a kind of stumbling dude!
More nicely painted zombies!
ReplyDeleteThanks Andre.
DeleteI felt very rusty painting them.
I know what you mean! What happened to those long ago days when I seemed to have so much time I didn't know how to fill it all?
ReplyDeleteToxic Ladies look great!
Thanks Gordon.
DeleteTime is certainly flying by at the moment. I really need to organise.
Your Toxic Zombies look suitably disgusting, Bob, and I mean that as a compliment.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bryan.
DeleteThe compliment is greatly appreciated.
Great looking zombies, Bob. Great art too. You may consider my cultural horizons broadened. (Reminded of a scene in that towering cinematic achievement, Morons from Outer Space.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiHYYZwnKLg
ReplyDeleteThanks Finch.
DeleteNow that's a blast from the past!
I was thinking more "Last Days on Mars".
Good to see you back painting Bob, and they look suitably unsettling and disgusting (as Bryan says in a good way!) :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Bk.
DeleteUnsettling and disgusting, I like it. Glad I could disturb you!
I know what you mean. At times after a long lay off, it kinda seems I am starting from square one again especially in my attempts to draw. It seems less so for painting but that's only because I've been lucky enough to find the time to put in some practice.
ReplyDeleteGood work on the zombie ladies. And love the monochrome poster too!
Thanks F.E.M.
DeleteI find any time off from painting and my skills and confidence start to slide.
