Fighting the Gray Tide (Miniature Painting)

[MGibster]

Painting up some Zombicide: Undead or Alive miniatures using Army Painter speed paints. Speed paints are okay, they’re great if you want to paint a lot of minis fairly quickly. They’ve also got some practical applications if you mix them with regular acrylics

I get more upside from speed paints because I can't paint as well as you, lol. I've taken to using them on a lot of stuff, or at least partially using them, especially on small and medium-sized miniatures like those. These guys were all done with speed paints plus a few highlights later.

I have the Speedpaints Mega Set but I often use them in conjunction with regular acrylics, as filters and washes.

On a sidenote, here's another one I painted up these last days.

Your work is gorgeous!

Thanks! As I said, I've only gotten back into painting 2-3 months ago, after two decades of hiatus.

Go, go Cactus Man! I can’t wait to horrify and/or humiliate my player character with this beast.

Little more base work to do, but here comes Comstar!

We used to refer to Comstar as Space AT&T back in the day. And I bet I'd have to explain the significance to people who grew up never having to pay for long distance calls.

I hear folks refer to them as Comcast lol.

Got a few boosters of Wizkids' pre-painted miniatures for their Bigby's set and repainted the giants. They're really good sculpts - I'm not a huge fan of Wizkids' small and medium miniatures, but they do some great monsters.
