Special Video 6 is up, and I thought I should tell you guys about it first!

Daft, I know, but I did this pic for my next video and chose the models who seemed to be too far gone for zombies, but not clean enough to be skeletons. Skelbies? Who else has figures that could be either/or?

I have finally got around to a 'paint test run' for my new swamp zombies regiment. Having ditched enamels after 35 years, I am going with acrylics and army painter dip (wash), then anti-shine. I have been experimenting for a year and I think I'm getting the technique about right now. The...

Gotta feel sorry for ghouls. Unless, that is, they REALLY love bones, in which case, happy days!

After more than a year attempting to replicate my 35 years' enamel painting style in acrylics, I have instead tried a more 'modern' method. I say more modern, but I have since been advised this is actually so very 2010!! On advice, I got myself some Army Painter Quickshade Dark Tone and did the...

The newly made vampire Biagino’s main source of corpses (by preference too) is the great pile of fallen dedicants and cultists (flagellants) on the battlefield of Ebino. So I needed new zombie figures, as all my others are dead Empire soldiers or dead pirates. I’m using 5 different sources for...

Some amazing magic has been done to this campaign on the Oldhammer forum, and they have replaced all the pictures. You can see the fully repaired campaign at http://forum.oldhammer.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2889. Be warned, it's a lot bigger than what is here as it includes all the non-undead...

(From my ongoing campaign, http://warhammer-empire.com/theforum/index.php/topic,46787.0.html. I'll use this thread to post more undead images from the campaign.)

Death Becomes Them The Assault on Viadaza, Illustrated Battle Story. Part One. (Note: See https://www.vampirecounts.net/threads/the-unholy-duchess-returns-to-viadaza.29546/#post-431743 for the prequel to this report.) The ground beyond the grey walls of Viadaza, out to the ancient ruins of a...

(Forgot to post this piece here way back - another photo-story from my current campaign featuring my undead army.) She Returns Biagino found it difficult to keep up with Ugo. Not that Ugo, a coachman by profession, clad in a long, thick leather coat over a mail shirt and carrying the heaviest...

Miserere Mei, Morr The Morrite Lector of Viadaza, Bernado Ugolini, had finally yielded to the inevitable. Until the previous week he had scrupulously avoided giving any encouragement, open or private, to Biagino and the other lesser priests of Morr who were preaching the crusade. Now, however...

By digging up bones of course! Oh, and gathering some other ingredients. Usually from ruinous places where corpses can be found a plenty. Maybe also some killing and looting And hauling it all to where you want your army:

This is one of three sections to the first of a three part end of season report in my current campaign. (Why am I telling you that?) But I thought you guys might like it 'cos, well, there are plenty of skellibobs in it. I'm particularly proud about how a couple of the photos came out...

I didn't realise how close to the VC book pictures I had made these in terms of colours until I was done. I was after something more 'ethereal' with their flames, robes and barding, but wanted to employ my usual cartoon style with the rest. So I did not do a complete black undercoat with cell...

40 new skeletons now done. Well, I say 40. Two are part of a 2x2 unit filler, and 12 were originally painted sometime in the late 80s I think, though it could have been the early 90s. I messed about with brush bristles as spear-shafts for a good half or so of them, as I am now convinced they...

Here are some completed (though unbased) undead ogres I have just made for my current warhammer story-campaign set in Tilea (see http://warhammer-empire.com/theforum/index.php?topic=46787.0). I am the GM and provide all the non-player armies and mercenaries. The background is that an NPC...

Unlike my usual battle reports (more than 50 of ‘em now, methinks) this one is not going to be a story one. It still has pics, but it is more about my wargaming experience rather than the little world the toy soldiers live in! I wanted to see how my ancient Undead army would do using the new...

The Southlands’ Jungle More than 70 Leagues upriver The Tabrizians set up camp upon a spur of land tucked inside a sharp crescent curve along the sluggishly flowing river. Thus the river provided a defence upon three sides and they needed to construct a palisade only on one side. Of course...

(This is another part of my All That Glistens campaign on Warhammer Empire, but as (once again) my pirate zombies are involved, I thought I'd put it here.) Prologue: The birds and monkeys had been behaving unusually for two days. Something in the air disturbed them, some smell or sound...

EDIT: I had 'lost' this bat rep section and had this in the wrong place with my original link. As the story I am doing doesn't have the vampire lord Gladabash as the main character (focusing instead on the living pirates so far) then I reckon I should just put Bat Reps involving the undead on...
