[redshadows]

Hi Everyone  

I sculpted this over the weekend for a bit of fun  

Its based on a head crab Zombie from the half life computer games.

What do think?
( sorry about the poor photo's. its not as rough looking in real life honestly   )






Thanks

Actually the first is better with black background

Very cool. Brings back some fond memories of that game

Well, it is a nice sculpt, but to be a headcrab should the zombie not need claws for hands and the legs on the headcrab should be a bit smaller? Buit at first glance it is recognisable enough to say headcrab, no worries about that.

This is not critique, I could not sculpt to save my life and enjoy seeing your effort.

No worries  , the more I think about it, it looks more like a mind control squid or something.

I might start on some real head crabs with claws and ripped clothing. more zombie like, stumbling forward etc..

Exactly what I thought, which leads to the idea of a sprue of such heads, to replace those of any miniature you want to look like its in thrall to such a cranial crustacean

should the body of the crab not be a bit bigger... doesn't look like the head of the victim would fit as is...

[Diakon]

I like it. I'd definitely buy some as I have a long term ambition to build a Half Life alien army.

I was sort of thinking the same thing.

[Ajsalium]

Perhaps they eat their victims' heads and replace them.

Size can vary a bit?

Yeah, thanks for bringing Half life into wargaming
Hope to see it painted shortly!
