The sixth annual Zomtober is almost upon us - that time of year when bloggers like my buddies Rob (click here for his blog) and Simon (click for his blog here) and myself commit to getting some more Zeds or Survivors painted.
The rules
The Zomtober rules are simple.
To take part you just need to paint one Zombie or Survivor (or more!) each week, in any scale you like, posting it to your blog by that week's Sunday (we use Sunday's as the end of each Zomtober week). So that means posting one or more newly painted Zombie or Survivor minis each week on or before the 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd and 29th of October 2017. This year has a very tight start and there is nothing stopping bloggers starting that first mini early in readiness for the Sunday!
Anyone commenting on this post will get added to the blog list below (and feel free to do something similar on your own blogs - as the word spreads, more and more bloggers can be involved!). Last year we had around 15-20 bloggers involved, and it would be great to beat that this year. So welcome all to this year's Zomtober!

ReplyDeleteSounds like a graet theme mate. Can't wait to see them. :)
DeleteSounds great!
ReplyDeleteAre you tempted to join in Michal? :)
DeleteYou can always count me in dude. :)
ReplyDeleteGood man. :)
DeleteI am always up for this - time to dig out my zombies!
ReplyDeleteGood to hear Mike. :)
DeleteThis sounds great, count me in! Completely new to all things zombies, but just bought The Walking Dead All Out War Prelude To Woodberry set yesterday as well as the core set, which should be here in a week :) Definitely better at terrain but hopefully seeing everyone else's work will help to motivate getting my paint brush going!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the TWD stuff will set you up right for Zombie painting action Ivor. :)
DeleteHope to be back for some Zombie action if you can squeeze me in?
ReplyDeleteConsider yourself squeezed Michael! :P
DeleteI have been waiting for this moment to jumpstart my completion of Black Plaque Zombies!
ReplyDeleteExcellent Terry, exactly the kind of thing Zomtober is perfect for. :)
DeleteI was asked to get involved. All I will say is IF I can I shall. Count me in as a provisional if possible.
ReplyDeleteHopefully you can manage it Clint. :)
DeleteWith your vote of confidence I feel I had better!
DeleteOk to start prepping/undercoating some figures now. then start in October proper?
Any and all pre-prep is allowed, and for slow coaches like me is positively encouraged! :)
DeleteWell...obviously!
ReplyDeleteGood man. :)
DeleteTWD?
Oh, yes please! I've been looking forward to Zombtober ever since I first saw it as a "lurker" - being able to actually join in is one of the reasons I started blogging!
ReplyDeleteIf you can squeeze me in I'd love to take part this year :-)
Welcome to the world of blogging Wargame Addict. :)
DeleteI have followed your blog and you are added to the ranks of Zomtoberists. :)
Count me in. Haven't done Zomtober for a few years and I should have some figures I want to paint by then.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to the Zomtober fold Fred! :)
DeleteI wanna do it! I wanna do it! Please :-)
ReplyDeleteConsider yourself added da Gobbo Grotto! :)
DeleteJust found a handful of zombies while looking for other things, so it would be rude to not take part. So you please add my name to the blog list of those taking part. Thank you.

DeleteAs in previous years, I plan to do a series of zombie vs survivor "duels" for Zomtober. It has come around very quickly this year, so it seems...
