Raven Clan from Blood Rage

I have a small problem.
I got a big box of goodies a couple of months ago – the loot from the Blood Rage Kickstarter. Great stuff, lots of minis and I started painting them.
Then another big box arrives – more loot, this time the first batch from the Zombicide: Black Plague kickstarter. Lovely figs and I started painting them.
And then another big box – the first batch from the Mercs kickstarter. Nice figs and I started to assemble and paint them.
Hey, hold it! That’s a lot of figures (and more to come) and I can do a little bit of everything and never be finished or I could concentrate on one game at a time and actually play with painted figs in at least one game. The last option is what I went for.
I guess you think I decided to paint my Blood Rage stuff first, but nope. Zombicide is what I’m concentrating on and these Blood Rage figs are those half-finished ones I just wanted to rid the painting table off. So I finished these in an evening and they are the boss, two soldiers (of a total of eight with these two sculpts) and the final mystic (I painted one before).
As you can see they are full of details and they really take some time to finish. Blue is the clan colour and I will let everyone have blue coats to be able to easily differentiate them on the gaming table.

Next post will be another hero from Zombicide and after that it will be a mix of Zombicide and other stuff. There is just no way I’m just painting stuff for one game…

  3. Your love for all things kick-starter has gotten you bogged down my friend, I thing it a failing of us modeller's always moving on to something else before we're finished what were at.

    1. So true!
      I've gotten a +5 modifier to my Kickstarter saving throws now, and that might just save me from even more goodies.
      But what is bought is bought...

  4. What you need is iron will and a laser-like focu...oh, shiny!
    Eh, as I was saying, what you need is me nagging you to finish your Zombicide figs while you nag me to finish mine.

    1. That's a good plan
      It's bound to fail :-)

    2. No plan survives contact with the enemy...

    1. The blue is the one used for the first mystic

      others... well, I don't remember, I'm afraid. But my idea was to have the clan colour prominent, and vary the others.
