Great paintjobs, but some of these don't have that shambling zombie look that I like so much from your earlier posts.

I say Sir, its because they are British. Even in Zombieness, The British don't slouch and certainly don't shamble.

They do at Two in the morning when it's chucking out time at the Crystal Rooms.

Excellent zeds! And there's something very familiar about that first one with the top hat that I just can't put my finger on....

Oh, excellent basing, as always! Are the cobbles sculpted, or do you use embossed plasticard?

Looking forward to the bobbies.

Thanks for the comments!

Mancha: I agree that some look more "Zombied" than others, my excuse was that they were a little "Fresher".

(Although that's a fair comment by Malamute about British Zombies not shambling!!!

)

Hawkeye: the one with the top hat is from the Westwind range ( either Gentlemen or Civillians..), he originally had a bowler hat but I made the top hat from greenstuff. He's also had an arm swap.

Anyhow, digging through my attic I found this photograph. It's from Sir Harcourt Rhymes' Journal and appears to show a Zombie infestation in Lambeth..............

I cannot vouch for how authentic it is.............

Excellent job on those.

Hilarious!

Excellent photo! Clearly an important historical document, and the question is, how did it end up in your attic?

As for the guy in the top hat - I was thinking that the resemblance was to a real person, but an older version of him, perhaps, before he grew the (very impressive) lamb chops... Who could it be? Thanks, though, for identifying the model you used for the conversion!

Nice minis, nice Photoshoppe skills!

Excellent work Pappa! I have enjoyed reading and catching up with this thread. Love the photograph!

Pappa I think you would enjoy a movie I just viewed this past weekend.
It is called I Sell The Dead. The movie is centered on two Victorian Era
grave robbers who discover the undead. And that the undead sell for a bit
more than normal corpses. Very fun and unique movie and it seems to fit right in
with the theme that you are going for.

Nice minis, nice Photoshoppe skills!

Wouldn't that be the Little Photoshoppe of Horrors?
Feed me. Feed me. Feeed me...brains!

Great photo

Thanks for the comments. I'm still only learning how to use PhotoShoppe properly.

Just a quick pic of a new "Survivor".
She is the mysterious Countess Morevna. Little is known about the Countess beyond her obvious wealth and her uncanny knowledge of the plague which has swept through London.......

....She bore all the hallmarks of a Lady, good breeding and all the trappings of her station. It still vexed me somewhat that she had little knowledge of her Mother Country and I can swear that her accent had changed since first we had met. But, she had asked for my assistance and as a gentleman I am duty bound to.......
_{Extract from Sir Harcourt Rhymes' Journal 23 September 1887}

BTW: I looked up "I sell the Dead" and it looks pretty cool. Thanks for the heads-up.

I'm jealous of all this fine work PM!!

Would love to see this lot in a game.

I love good, one-color paintjobs. Very nice. She's from Blue Moon, right? Is she as tall as others of their minis?
