Thanks! I am looking forward to finishing this myself. Going through RealLifeCommittments(tm) I realize that it will be a slow beginning and that I will have to forfeit january and fabruary completely. Bummer, but that is how it is going to be. Flipside is I will then have my own little hobby-corner in my new flat!

Really like the curved front piece on the building. Very impressive and good detail.

Thanks for all encouragement guys! I have spent the last few months learning just how much time a one year old consumes! Last night I started painting again for the first time in ages. Pics will follow

The hex bases are Fenris games. Excellent stuff.

My motivation is currently as fickle as Nurgle himself. Ran out of pre perforated hex bases for my cult infantry and cannot seem to get any more from Fenris games. Well well. More time for finishing the three towers of plague.

Some new interesting paints for me this time around. Agrellan earth for that cracked mud feeling, a bit of nurgle rot for the snot gun, and model mates excellent oil brown and rust weathering. The rust in particular is just unbelievably good stuff. I have only bought the darkest "copper" tone. Will get the others too!

I agree! Really puky looking :D

Thank you. I think. ;D

Painfully slow painting is actually taking place. First an experiment involving agrellan earth. I needed some proxies for cult quickly, and I reused some of my old IG as a stop gap. I also wanted to see what I could get away with regarding the base work before applying the agrellan magic. Turns out that without heavy texturing before agrellan, the circular bases show through distinctly. I think they will have to do for now, but my quest for an easy yet nice way of basing 6 mm inf goes on...

Second, The Zombies! Still very WIP. Bases from Fenris arrived (quick and neat as usual). First base them with that granite paint. Then glue them on. Then try to fill gaps and base with structure paint (dark brown). Then agrellan earth. This makes really deep cracks. I think I like it. Gotta love these sculpts. Some miscasts, predominatly of arms, but hey, the are zombies after all. Also, the quality of painting is probably patchy at best, but hey, they are zombies. And so very many! :{[]

Maybe I should paint some more up, but I am fresh out of minis, and I sure need something else to feed the motivation monster within...

Tower group pic. I love the PT concept. Thought I was a bit mad scratchbuilding three of them, tactics-wise. However, the latest developments in the LatD suggested changes makes them all useful, I hope.

I might go back and touch up some details, but they are essentially done. It was great fun and I got to try a lot of stuff doing them up: casting resin and metal in home made RTV molds being one of them.
