Title: Grandad's Conversions - Some Survivors and lots of dead bodies
Post by: dadlamassu on May 24, 2018, 01:19:56 PM

The figures below are all conversions in some way or another.
From left to right: small girl with converted head and arms, Blue Lady has Biker Babe legs with a Zombie Vixen torso and head; Green Lady has converted arms; Police lady has Biker Babe legs and head, survivor body and weapons and the very aggressive and upset lady is a Zombie Vixen torso and head with survivor arms.  Quite pleased with them!

Not exactly "Survivors" but more "Ex-Survivors".  In our games there have, so far, only been Survivors or Zombies.  What was missing was the intermediary stage of "Dead".  So grandad made some bodies by mixing suitable parts from survivor and zombie plastic sprues.  These may be used to represent survivors that have been partially eaten or recently killed and going through the process of conversion to zombies.  These have been quite successful so I may try to make some more.  These ones may go onto clear plastic bases to make them easier to handle.

Very nice in a morbid way.

I have some TTCombat dead bodies I need to look at.

Those corpses look the business.  Having bodies strwn about would add a lot to a scene.

Zed remnants are SOOO multi-useful.

I can well imagine uses in some non-race Gasland situations I've been considering.

Well done!

Many thanks for the kind words.  The bodies are useful in many modern games and were a lot easier to make than I thought they would be.  The Warlord Zombie Horde box gave me all 12 of them and a few more for conversions.
