Some things:

My photo
I paint small metal and plastic figures and rarely get to play with them. But that is fine with me.

Zomtober 2019 (Week 3)

"Wait, what happened to Zomtober 2019 Week 2 Dai?"

Well, life was rather fun, too fun, and then there was my 43rd birthday and so... yeah. Week 2 ended up being a bust.

But even so, here's week 3's offering,  a much rather tardy birthday present for my mate John who turned 40 last December.

Astute readers might recognise this mini as the infamous Lemmy Kilmister, sadly deceased front man of the metal band, Motorhead. John is a Lemmy nut so when i saw this zombie-survivor version of the musician, i knew i had to buy one and  paint it up for John.

Next week's Zomtober entry will be on time and.  Promise.

    1. Cheers Dave. Seems of late my eyes have gotten worse so my detail work isn't where it should be. O well.

    1. From an Etsy seller called PewterPunk I believe. Came with Taylor and Clarke too, but I'm going to use those two as generic rockers in my Zombie Survivor game.
      Thanks loads Michael. :)
