I don’t know if anyone else has this problem, but often, I’ll undercoat the miniature, then sit back and wonder how on earth I’m going to paint it. I’m happy with how they look, and the whole unit of nine models will soon be menacing the MI. I find ...

Wells obviously put a lot of thought into the game but his zeal for Britains working field artillery is a thing of the past. Here is a link to the public domain editions at the Gutenberg site:.

Addicted to Pewter: May 2012
http://addictedtopewter.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 29, 2012. Since May is Zombie Awareness Month. And I have a few unpainted zombies left on the workbench, I figured I'd fishish this batch off step by step to show how to quickly paint a horde of zombies. This horde happens to be part of my Weird War II Zombie collection. Most are from West Wind. Incursion minis. The others are some US Airborne Zombies from What The? Darken some of the red ink with the black ink and run this around the edges of the open wounds, in the mmouths and in the eyes.
