RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

40 painted and based, and another 20 painted waiting to base, and finished a corpse cart today also (counts as a zombie right?). I'm going with quantity over quality as I know I can't compete with the talented painters on this site. Just need to buy a new camera tomorrow, old one has had it :grave: and then I will post some pics.
 
RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

I have finished!!!! As soon as I coax my camera into working, I shall post le pictures!!!
 
RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

Here we go!!!!

5x4 Unit. (lol musician and standard bearer included). Had tons of fun making it. More converting than I've ever done (nothing major, but many many small converts) and the first banner I've done. There are lots of hands and heads coming up from the ground that the pics don't show very well, and most tombstones have runes/letters on them.

All in all, I'm quite happy with how it turned out and the new things I tried

RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

with all the full hoardes entered we will be doing hoarde shots. Means I need to take my hoarde and assemble it for a group shot xD I will do so after I paint a few more. This challenge has started a new project for me which is to turn a entire empire army undead. I mean zombie lots and lots of zombies. I am thinking they will be a mixed lot of empire lands. As it was always hard for me to choose just one. :zombie3:

I would have to say this is the best turnout we have ever had for a challenge thanks everyone please remember we have one next month too. I am posting it as we speak as I was bad and started already I feel everyone else should be allowed too aswell.

Turning The World To Darkness Challenge : Orc's and Goblins

So the time has come again for a new challenge. This time it shall be..

Miniatures to be turned: Anything Orc or Goblin (actual O&G range, cursed company models, etc.) If there is any questions if it would be allowed post your question.

Undead to be created: anything (Skeletons, Zombies, Black Knights (Black Boar?), Ghosts, etc.)


Challenge Rules
making the world undead, each month we selected a new model to turn into one of our wonderful undead, the world must become undead, as for example a zombie ogre. At the end of each month there is a vote on who's model turned out best. The winner can selected the next model to turn the the dark side. This means we can turn things to undead for a tomb king style army if one wishes too.

Rules:
You must use the selected miniature, Though you can convert and decorate the base, for more dramatic effect. In the end however it must be game legal.
The miniature must be painted during the challenge period, as this is to expand and enhance each painter's skill and the skill of conversion.
Only one entry per person In this case both miniatures will count as one entry
No Voting for your self.
Please have your finished Minitures posted by the 31st of April. Voting will begin the 1st of may.

The winner of this month's challenge will pick the undead challenge for June

Yes you can start right away if you wish.
 
RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

some seriously badass work guys! i think the Hoard shot is a great idea, as it seems most people painted around 10+
 
RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

Speaking for myself, it's hard to spend the time on one zombie. 3-point models that I've already painted 50 of don't really do it for me. This challenge was perfect, as I'm been spending time making up new ways to paint zombies, but most of my ideas are horde-based.

Obviously my entry in this challenge is a set piece. I've also spent time painting models from my regular opponents armies as zombies, and extra models lying around. To date, I've only got 20 normal zombies. The many other models I have are:

Set pieces
Unit fillers (in progress)
Random models from other armies found lying around
Specific models from my regular opponents' lists made to inspire fear and terror in their hearts

3/4 of these are units, as opposed to models.
 
RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

so since we are judging on multiple zombies in a shot I'm uploading my zombie block pics, so my previous shots will just be eye candy :perv:

HERE THEY ARE!

RE: Turning the world to darkness challenge Zombie Hoarde

I finished the wash painted zombie. I like the finished product but it seems like a lot of work. Then again people say the same things about my painting methods. I guess I feel satisfied with it but the coloring is overly limited which makes it difficult to use it widely. I like having my colors premixed and ready to go.
Anyways here it is. My finished headless wash method zombie.
