Zomtober 2013 Reflections

So another Zomtober draws to a close (for most; some die-hards are still adding to their walking dead and survivor stock-piles! Good on you guys!), and here are the four minis I managed for the project.

I am very happy because I hit all my planned deadlines (for me that is a 'big thing') plus I also managed to finish off another six minis for other games and ranges, so my most prolific month of the year so far!

Finally, if Zomtober participants want to add a comment below, then I will tally up everyone's undertakings in this post.

Rob & Charlie (Four Colour Super Minis): 30 Zombies and 11 Survivors

  2. I would like to thank you for running Zomtober this year I've managed 2 zombies and one survivor. All though I did not make all 4 deadlines this year this was a very stressful month for me and you've inspired me to get back into painting, so thank you.

    1. Very kind words Robert. I think Zomtober has been a shared experience, so a good thing IMHO. Huge thanks go to Brummie for promoting the idea, and to Rob whose stupid idea it was in the first place!

      But I am happy we were able to get other to join the 'party' so well done to you sir. :)

  4. 4 survivors and 4 zombies. Although some of the survivors may not make it past the first few days of the Z-apocalypse.

    It was fun doing something with a sense of shared purpose and seeing other people's contributions!

  9. The final score for me was 12 zombies and 3 survivors.

    I'd like to add my thanks to yourself, Rob, Simon, and all the other Zomtober painters. It's been a great, fun experience, looking out for everyone's updates, and having a reason to get things done myself.

    Roll on Zomtober 2014!
