Title: Some Hybrid Mantic and Wargame Factory Zombies
Post by: Luckyjoe on February 25, 2012, 02:42:25 PM

Hi, everyone. I just finished some Zombies made from Wargames Factory Zombie legs and Mantic Zombie heads, arms and torsos. Since I got the idea here on Lead Adventure from CDR Vyper's Urban Zombie Board thread, I thought I'd post some pics here as an homage to the CDR.

Thanks for looking, and thanks, CDR Vyper for the great tip.

Cool! The different parts scale up nicely.
Nice paint jobs and conversions.

Great stuff Joe, I saw them on your blog also. I kept my Wargames and Mantic zeds seperate, kinda a first string second string kinda view.

@Blackwolf1066: LOL. They do sort of look like that. I need to make a couple of basketball hoops and put them in one of the back-lots on my cityboard. "What Zombies do when there's no breathers around".  :D

@PapaSpanky: That's a good idea to split them up. I'm thinking when I paint my WGF z's they will end up in the middle of the horde as filler.

@CDR Vyper: Thanks. And thanks for the great tip about these.

@HerbyF: Thanks very much. The Mantic bits really make the difference.

VERY COOL LOOKING! These Guys are probably the best minis I've seen you create. I love the Starbucks's sign on the fence...the dangers of caffeine. VERY WELL DONE!
