Post by: Commander Vyper on October 08, 2011, 05:34:24 PM: Nice Matt Lord zeds there and two of the frother's comp minis.

Also nice post apoc ladies there, (just bought RAGE today so looking forward to a little post apoc action!).

The red head is from RAFM and has had her arm repositioned and a weapon swap.
The blond was the Rhianna look-a-like fantasy football player from Gaspez arts I think, She had a new left hand added with the bat and a flak vest added.

Post by: Marine0846 on October 10, 2011, 03:34:20 AM: Great looking figures.
Had to look about three times at the female in the first photo.
She was looking pretty hot, before I saw she was a zed. ;D

Post by: Lawful Evil on October 22, 2011, 02:02:31 AM: I really like your reserved, realistic colour choices. I recognise a few of the miniatures, but where does the big fellow in the top row come from? I'm always after big tank like zombies to make things more interesting.

Post by: Commander Vyper on October 22, 2011, 10:02:17 AM: Very nice mix of hasslefree and tengu there. Must get my Matt Lord ones painted soon.

Anyway LE: Tanks are from Fenris Games, originally part of the frother's zombie comp miniature set but now back with Ian for sale. Sculpted by his brother.

everything you put your hands on turn into masterpieces. Best of all are your skin tones. I especially love the perfect play of light and shadows on the survivor-babes. I will take them as an inspiration for my next brushworks.

Thank you for sharing!

Ciao

Painted three fairly new Hasslefree survivors on impulse. Fantastic sculpts and a well needed rest from fiddly multipart infinity figs.
The figs nearly painted themselves. A real breath of fresh air.

I'm quite sure they didn't. I spend hours staring at mine and nothing remotely near to this happens.

Detective Willis.

A Zombiecide survivor. You maybe don't realise what fantastic sculpts these figs are till you start to slap some paint on them. It's a crying shame that they're not avalaible in a nicer material like hard resin or metal, the sculpt on the face of this one in particular is outstanding, not that my PJ shows it but it really did look like Bruce before I got my dirty little brushes all over it. ;D

Next up is from hasslefree, another whacked out survivalist type.

Thanks for all your kind words so far.

It's getting so that my survivors/hunters out number the zeds, and we can't have that can we, so I've set myself a goal of bringing the total of standard shamblers up to 100 by Easter.

As long as nothing major happens I reackon its do-able.

With these 11 new additions, my current total of standard zeds is 40.

With the exception of the three undead strippers from Reaper, all this batch is from Cold War miniatures.

Wow, this paintjob is my absolute favorite. You were able to paint him in a way that he looks as characterful as in his movies.

Post by: hubbabubba on March 06, 2014, 01:57:45 PM: Latest additions and a group shout.

Now up to 60 regular shamblers, but I seem to have stalled :?

Title: Re: Zeds and Survivors
Post by: zizi666 on June 04, 2014, 11:39:18 PM: Lovely. too bad that one beat cop is wielding a stick.
Even though I've got some Zeds carrying stuff myself, I find the notion that a creature intent on lashing out to rip someone apart would carry equipment totaly unbelievable.
Title: Re: Zeds and Survivors
Post by: Brummie Thug on June 05, 2014, 10:01:20 AM: Lovely job. I don't mind them lashing out with sticks and the like it all depends on what fiction draws your inspiration from. The occasional smarter zombie can be quite the nice surprise for the unexpected survivalist. But that all depends on what your own tastes are :)

Title: Re: Zeds and Survivors

Title: Re: Zeds and Survivors
Post by: hubbabubba on September 12, 2021, 01:39:27 AM: ufff, it's been a long time.

Some PMCs to hunt zeds, or maybe other survivors...
