WWW2 Era Civilian Zombies?
« on: April 25, 2012, 12:26:00 AM »
Who makes 1930s-1940s Civilian Zombies?
After all, it's not just soldiers who get infected. ;)


I figure I could do some head swaps if need be.

Thanks

I think you might need to convert some. I would recomend starting with West Wind Games Victorian Zombies.
Theres more 28mm Superhero Madness at my blog, http://fourcoloursupers.blogspot.com/
And for Ultra-modern Wargaming check out Hotel Zugando at http://ultramoderngaming.blogspot.co.uk/

maybe it would just be easier to find living civilians from the area and zombify them like you said with head swaps and maybe green stuff

Tengu Models have a set called the The Great Zedsby which I think is suitable. They have some other zombies that could probably pass the bill too; naked, clowns, jeans only.

I agree, Tengu models are perfect (DF01 " The Great Zedsby")

http://www.tengumodels.co.uk/userimages/procart2.htm

But you might also considerStudio miniatures zombies. All are civilian and many of them could fit as 1930-1940 zombies (especially MOB 001, 003, 004, and  "Till Death Us Do Part" :

Other options :

http://www.recreationalconflict.com/      (in Lead Bones single figures...down of the page)

http://www.victoryforce.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=VFM&Category_Code=creatures

The last option is to buy civilian miniatures and make a head swap with zombies heads (like SOTR from Westwind).
I wish I were an octopus to paint more miniatures...Cthulhu must be a great painter

Check out Brigade Games. They have a WWII era set of civilian zombies. It contains four male zombies, each dressed differently.

I wonder if modern zombies would look that out of place if their pants are not painted as jeans but as brown cotton trousers and T-Shirts are are made into pullovers :) At least Cold War has quite a number of zombies that fit perfectly into the period, things like plastic construction helmets and traffic vests set aside of course.
