Title: Zombies....freshly painted!
Post by: supervike on February 16, 2009, 02:45:25 AM

Egads, it seems like forever since I actually painted (and finished) something.

Here's some Griffin Zeds and a couple of survivors...

I know it's cliche to say, but I'm really crap at photos.  They look much better in real life.   But I just paint for the fun, so no harm done!


EDIT....sorry! It seems my blog server went down....Hows that?

Might be me, but the photos and the link to them aren't working.

I really like the way you've done the fireman - haven't got around to painting the survivors yet, but had lots of fun with the Griffin zeds.

Personal preference, but i'd maybe try toneing down the blood a bit - very red.  Did you use Tamiya Clear Red?  Maybe add a bit of brown or blood, unless you are going for the "fresh" corpse look.

Great job!

Yeah, I sure did use TCR.

I like the way it 'glosses' but I agree it's much too red.

I'll mix some brown paint in with it next time!

I do have some vehicles...some cheap 1:43 die cast jobbies that I need to weather up a bit.


Thanks for the comments.
