From PaulS - The shuffling bomb (325 Points)

This entry is a bit of a surprise, even to me. After finishing the gladiators the other day, I wasn't expecting to find the time or the impetus to actually finish much else before the deadline.  To be honest, I wasn't expecting to put in another entry at all. Turns out I was dead wrong.

This morning I woke up early, so while Claire was asleep, I stuck on Season 3 of Arrow and started on the Season 1 box for Zombicide as it was a fairly mindless thing that could be done while half asleep and watching tv. 4 hours later and I appear to have blitzed through a whopping 65 zombies! That is 40 Walkers, 16 Runners, 8 Fatties and 1 berzerk walker that I appear to have missed in the last batch. She had somehow rolled under the shelf on my painting tray and been missed... obviously a lurker that one!

Here is the new horde in all it's black and white glory... in full colour. I think that graveyard must be on top of some horrific mass grave to have spawned that many zombies!

When the Challenge is finished, I'll try and take a photo of the full horde... the numbers are bordering on the ridiculous.There were too many to fit in the lightbox, hence the in-situ shot instead.

So, 65 more 28mm zombies to the total please Curt. I believe that is 325 points in total... and yet another goal smashed! Put me down for 1750 next please. With 5 days left and no spare evenings, I'm not reliant upon sleepless nights to meet that one, small though it may be.

I really am going to have to do an end of Challenge photo as the model count is getting silly for me. I don't think I've ever painted this many models! 


From Curt:

Awesome job Paul! That is an incredible amount of figures to get done in 4 hours! You obviously have a good pattern worked out for churning these little horrors out. Not bad for someone who had an initial points target of 500 points. Fantastic.

BTW, I do like that creepy gargoyle statue in the last picture. Very cool.
