[Weird War II]¶
German Mad Doctor and his Zombie creations¶

I washed the miniatures in warm soapy water to get rid of manufacturing residues. When they were dry, I basecoated them with my airbrush and Vallejo surface primer black 28.012, followed by a spray from a roughly 45Â° angle with Vallejo 70.830 German Field Grey WWII, thus creating the first shading of the uniform.

Imperial Flush Space Marines¶

Today I put the last touches to the command models:

The lieutenants have personal heraldy on their right shoulder pads, and on the upper leg/shoes. Both models had two stripes sculpted on the left arm, which I also painted in yellow like the rank badges on the Sergeants. Both officers have a plume on their helmet which I painted in a darker blue than the other blue parts on all the models.

The Captain has quite some parts painted in gold to distinguish him even more than his helmet already does.

The apothecary has a white right shoulder pad and helmet, both showing the Helix badge in blue. Otherwise, the apothecary is painted like a common Marine.

The Librarian is mostly clad in a dark blue robe. The Lexicanum badge is painted on his forehead, he also has a gold decoration on the helmet.

Next steps are painting the rocks on all the bases.

[Weird War II]¶
German Mad Doctor and his Zombie creations¶

While working on the Alternative Armies Terminators, the de-flashing and gluing bug bit me and I started to work on several other miniatures from my lead pile.

Among the miniatures waiting to be worked on were

Joseph Umfangle, Mad German Doctor (Blackball Games)
Wehrmacht Zombies including Officer (Studio Miniatures)
Improved Whermacht Zombies (Blackball Games)

I assembled them, glued them to washers, applied plaster of paris to hide the integral bases, and added sand. While assembling the plastic zombies, I added some weaponry from Bolt Action to some of the miniatures, rifles they had still slung over their shoulder, or weapons held in spasmed hands, dragged behind the unliving.

Ready for basecoating.

[Modern]¶
Mercenaries¶

While working on the Alternative Armies Terminators, the de-flashing and gluing bug bit me and I started to work on several other miniatures from my lead pile.

On of the group of models waiting for a treatment are the modern mercenaries from the Militia Miniatures Kickstarter. I based them on washers, used plaster of paris to hide the elevation of the integral base and glued sand to the base.

Ready for priming.

The command models are being painted, here the current status.

During the last two weekends, I was also working on my Terminator models, here the current status:

They are ready to be glued together, I only need to do some sculpting work on the right arms, where I cut off the original weapons.

Imperial Flush Space Marines¶

With the last squad nearly done, and only the command models left for painting, I started to work on the last models of these alternative Space Marines. Don't ask my why, but when I prepared the other miniatures, I did not prepare the Terminators - time to change that.

The models are again from Alternative Armies, Desteria models:

I have two arm variants. One of the right arm shown below I will use as a heavy flamer. All the other weapons will be replaced, see below.

The hammer will again be given to the squad leader, as with the other models. All weapons, except one heavy flamer (see above), will be replaced by the miniguns shown below. All these weapons are from http://maxmini.eu/.
