The Undead Horde emerging from the Tomb!
« on: May 21, 2009, 06:06:07 AM »
A few pictures I snapped of my Wargods of Aegyptus mummy horde (with a few Reaper undead mixed in):











The tomb is made out of 2" foam, the paintings on the walls are from an Usborne paper cut-out-and-assemble Egyptian temple model.

Nice work - those bandages look well lived in

Very nice. At some point I'd like to actually play some games of Wargods again.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Outstanding stuff!

Did you paint the friezes on the walls, or are they printouts?

Does anyone know where to find printouts like that?  I'm in the process of making some pulpy Egyptian terrain, and haven't been able to find any.

Ta!

As I said in the initial post, the paintings on the walls are from an Usborne paper cut-out-and-assemble Egyptian Temple model.

They're printed on fairly thick cardstock and look great!  Here's a link:

There's a lot of material in the book, probably enough to make six or eight tombs the size of the one I've got here.

I dig it.  I way like Mummies more than Zombies.  Thanks for putting up some cool pix that didn't have zombies in them.  I love the wall murals.  Great idea. :-* :-* :-*

Supercollider,

have a look at the khemri_tomb_kings Yahoo group.
In the files section, there are a lot of useful pictures.

Btw, those are the same I used for my own Egyptian tomb.
