Zomtober 2017 - Week 5

Zomtober zombie count: 10

   I am going in early this week with my last submission for Zomtober* and, as ever, the last week is always a struggle, more so in a 5 week month! So, this week I have decided to throw a curve ball, instead of zombies or survivors, I have gone for undead farm animals. . .

* See my wife's new blog to

   So a few months ago I saw a kickstarter that had a zombie cow as one of it's rewards, even with the postage starting to make buying a single figure seem expensive, I couldn't say no, so when they added a zombie sheep and pig I was already in, so why not? As this is a shorter painting week, I have aimed low, with only the sheep and pig on my painting table, but the cow will come in due course. I have kept the colour simple to for a similar reason, I want to focus on the zombie side of the models and not worry too much about getting the breed spot on.




Thanks for reading and if you have some time, please read my wife's blog, she is a much better writer than me.

    Oh wow!
    They look fantastic Mike :-) That's some "curve ball" and I'm sure (like me) there's going to be loads of folks with these on their wanted list! ;-)

    The zombie livestock look like a fun alternative for regular zombies, especially in rural areas.
    Great job painting these!

    Now I understand where kebab meat comes from.

    Those are cool, and a fun change of tack.

    Nice work.
