Breten Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 So it's been awhile. I had a GenCon Blog for '09, and had to miss this year, so I've been out of the Malifaux loop for a little. But the other week, my LGS of choice, Myth Games in Calgary, Alberta started carrying Malifaux. Last week he brought i the rulebook, cards, and a majority of starters. On Saturday I went in to give him a hand placing an order for blisters not foun in starters and such. And to support Malifaux in his store I picked up the Nicodem starter as I didn't have any Resurrectionists in my collection. The ex had Seamus and his Zombie hookers. So Nicodem will be a demo force for the store, that I will leave on display. I got everything assembled on Saturday, and started painting on Sunday, finishing 2 zombies on Monday night. I finished off Mortimer, and the 3rd Zombie last night as well as starting Nicodem. Got his pants and coat and flesh done. This is a quick paint job project, Tableop Quality demo Starter Box for display and use at Myth Games, my LGS of choice. So there aren't a lot of highlights, it's basicall drybrushing and washes. Eyes are also not done, nor are teeth. I personally can't see faces without super strong glasses in my old age, so I don't spend a lot of time on faces for tabletop gaming models. I might go back and do some facial details later. Here's some quick pics of the zombies and Mortimer: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancake ss Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Very nice, only thing that i'd change and this is not a dig at your painting. Is a little bit more colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breten Posted September 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 I went with a limited palette on these, sticking to browns and greys for simplicity, time constraints, and because they are dirty zombies! The only spark of colour is the scarf on Mortimer and the hair on the zombies. Sadly, the yellow light washes out the colour a bit too so they come across a little dull.

Repeter Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 I really like your basing--and I think our Morts are twins. Good job on these, I hope Malifaux gets entrenched there like it is here in Milwaukee. We have a good enough crowd going to make this a great second to the WM/40K crowds.

Breten Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Thanks. So far we seem to be getting a lot of interest. I ran guy through the mechanics, and he loved it. Nabbed the books, Lilith and Sonnia, an Lilith was painted and I played a full game with him last night. As all the Warmachine guys looked on in interest so with any luck a few of those will be biting as they did like the minis. Gonna try and finish Nicodem, and start Necropunks that I had for Levi.
