It turns out that trying to cram three years of university work into one year leaves very little time for other pursuits. While I have tried to paint, I have failed more than succeeded...
That being said, I have been painting some things... Speed Painting Gooooooo!
OK, so I'm the worst speed painter in the world. I'll often take an hour (or longer) on an SM helmet to be happy with it. In an effort to help me paint quicker I'm going slap happy with my Zombicide zombies. It took me two hours to get these seven done. Anyone who knows me knows that this is a monumental achievement of splediferous speed for me...
Huge time savers were the army painter sprays and dips. I only used three colours, but I'm about to do my next batch which will have more colours...For gaming pieces (Which they are), they're fine, but I really had to stop myself from doing eyes, and picking out all the little bits...
I'll still take my time with the survivors, and zombivors, but these are OK... ^_^

My next batch was 15, which I think is as large a mini count as I can get in one painting ^_^
