Galaxy Defenders - Xeno-Grey - Complete

Well, I finally managed to get the Xeno-Grey mini's sealed.  As I mentioned before, the Xeno-Grey is basically Ares Games version of the classic Grey that is prevalent in sci-fi.  It's an interesting mini although it doesn't really feel like a Grey as its a bit too tall.

Natch, I have a picture of their backside

I've actually managed to finish up the Xeno-Greys.  However, I haven't sealed them yet as I wanted to finish off some more models before hitting them all with the spray.  Which also means I don't have a pic of the finished thing yet.

Instead, I managed to get started on some of the Xeno-Betas - a different type of alien from Galaxy Defenders.

A similar approach was taken to painting these

Going for another change of pace as I'm painting up some sci-fi minis.  These are Ares Games version of the classic alien Grey - a staple of any creepy sci-fi show.

These are actually pretty much finished.  Due to a simple colour scheme, I was able to blow through these really quickly.  Just a little bit more work and I will call these ones complete.

Different colour scheme (blue vs green) is to represent different ranks of the Xeno-Grey.

Woot!  Finished off Amy!

This actually took me longer than I expected as this has been a really busy week workwise.  As a result, didn't get much time to paint.  Luckily, I didn't need to do much to finish the job.

Managed to get in a lot of work done on my next survivor - Goth Amy.

This mini shows why I'm not a very good painter.  My hands aren't steady enough and you can really see this when I try to do the freehand on the stockings.

Almost finished.  I just need to do a bit more detail work and then I'm done.

Zombie game - Josh - Complete

I managed to finish up Josh over the last week.  After the wash I did last week, I decided that the skin was a little too dark so I ended up lightening it up a little bit.

Unf, the face isn't fully in focus

Are those CK pants?

Well, I managed to finish off the rest of my Goblins in my Marauder team.  Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of the finished article.  On the plus side, they are pretty identical to the other goblins I painted so its not like another picture would have been a surprise.

Anyway...

After doing a glut of "good enough" bulk painting, its time to get back to painting single mini's.  Which means its time to paint another survivor in my zombie game!

Below is a WIP shot of Josh.  So far, I've basecoated the flesh and the hoodie.  I also gave the flesh a wash.  I've generally avoided using washes on my survivor minis as I wanted them to have a very clean cartoony look to fit with the cartoonish feel of the game.  However, the flesh I used was a bit too pale so I wanted to darken the colour a little.  Hopefully, I don't regret that decision!
