When ordering up the wonderfully grotesque additions to the ever expanding zombie hoard from 'Tengu Miniatures' (see 'Everyday, I'm shuffling') my eyes fell upon these additions to their range.
Entitled ‘Hell Hounds’ they include ‘Scube’ a Great Dane, ‘Toby’ the Rottweiler and ‘Zeus’ the Bull Terrier; I have absolute no idea why, but for some inexplicable reason my mouse hovered for far too long over the ‘add to basket’ button and in a moment of insanity/weakness they were in!
All very Charlie's Angels! |
Great sculpts in all their goriness and quite satisfying to paint up. Once again I went for a fairly predictable colour palette with the possible exception of the Great Dane who just had to be painted up as the rotting alter ego to ‘Baskerville’ from the ‘secret project’ collection.
"Scooby-dooby-ghoul!"
Great work and great paint , my favorite is Scooby
ReplyDeleteGreetings .
Thank you Vincent, he might be mine too.
DeleteWoof woof!!!
ReplyDeleteAll excellent but my fave is the bull Terrier ...My favourite type of dog.
The top pic..if they were looking at me like that i certainly would throw them a stick..
Thank you, I might throw the stick and run after it myself!
DeleteI'd throw them the guy out jogging with me.
DeleteThat would work too! :D
DeleteShcooby-dooby-doo! Those zombie-dogs look fab :)
ReplyDeleteToo kind Tamsin, thank you.
DeleteThese really are very good
ReplyDeleteIan
Thank you Ian.
DeleteThey really are the dogs conkers!
ReplyDeleteThank you my good man/
DeleteTruly grotesque, you have painted these to a T sir. I'm trying to resist expanding my own horde via Tengu at the moment, please stop providing such temptation.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about the temptation, but they really are very good and the service is sensational.
DeleteVery well done. You should really get your dogs a Pet Plan - they don't look too well.

Thank you and you are probably right, but I understand they are not cheap!
DeleteNice zombie dogs Michael they are fun looking figures.
ReplyDeleteThank you Simon, they certainly are great sculpts.
DeleteI'd rather not find out what his Scooby-Snack consists of!
ReplyDeleteCreepily fine work, Michael.
It doesn't bear thinking about does it and thank you.
DeleteUnusual (and good !) figures !!
ReplyDeleteScouby is nice too ...
Perfect painting work.
Thank you Sam, things do tend to get a little weird round here occasionally.
DeleteWonderfully revolting!
ReplyDeleteIncredibly kind of you Sir - I think. ;)
DeleteNice doggy...
ReplyDeleteLooking splendid !
Best regards Michael
Thank you Michael.
DeleteYou've got some great looking dogs there. They are both scary and realistic.
ReplyDeleteThank you Robert, the painting owes much to the quality of the sculpts though.
DeleteGreat paintjob, but I think 'nice' is not a word I would describe your dogs with. I think intimidating is more spot on in this special case.
ReplyDeleteThank you and I think you might be spot on!
DeleteMichael,
ReplyDeleteI fell off the chair laughing when I saw the Rotty was named Toby - surely Tith would be a better name! Sorry folks, village in-joke there.
Pip pip
I do hope you haven't bruised anything important! It certainly brought a wry smile to my face as well!
DeleteAnd thanks to you, I remembered an answer in tonight's village quiz - what was the name of the dog in Punch and Judy - Toby.
DeletePip pip
good work on some odd figures :)
ReplyDeletePeace James
Thank you James.
DeleteAwwwww, poor pooches!
ReplyDeleteYou be carefully stroking these infected beasties!
DeleteNice work Michael. Those dogs are great. The Scooby picture really cracked me up.
ReplyDeleteRod
Thank you Rod, it just had to be done!
DeleteWhen you put that fig up against normal Scooby the horror of what he'd become became truly apparent. You're mind is a strange and beautiful place Michael Awdry:)
ReplyDeleteThank you Dr. O'Leary - I think!
DeleteGreat paintjob!
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeleteUnusual miniaturs but a usually great paintjob, Michael.
ReplyDeleteI'm following your zombie project with great concern.
Cheers
Stefan
Thank you Stefan, I am afraid there is plenty more undead nonsense in the pipeline!
DeleteWho doesn't like a zombie dog, excellent work Michael!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, Man's best friend and all that!
DeleteHola
ReplyDeleteComo molan los perros zombie que te as curado
un saludo
Thank you.
DeleteOh oh Scooby has gone zombie on us and the world is truly over run now!:-)
ReplyDeleteChristopher
We are all doomed, but wait is that Scapppy I see coming to the rescue.
DeleteExcellent painting Michael!
ReplyDeleteThank you Rodger.

This looks suspiciously like spam!
DeleteZombie animals and children truly are disturbing. Nice figures and paint job though.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Sean, but they were a joy to paint.
DeleteThese are Pedigree, Chum.
ReplyDeleteSuperb painting once again Michael.
Cheers,
Pat.
Quite possibly the best comment of the day - thank you! :D
DeleteYour painting is flawless as always. I really love the Scooby Doo one. Best, Dean
ReplyDeleteThank you Dean, that is very generous of you.
DeleteExcellent, you certainly wouldn't want to bump into them walking down the street!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness no!
DeleteUnusual subject, but executed really well (as usual)!
ReplyDeleteThank you that is very kind of you.
DeleteQuite disturbing, just what you want to unsettle the survivors.
ReplyDeleteI think you might be absolutely right Sir.
