Zombicide Survivors & Zombivors Louise (Rue Morgue) & "Rose" (Not-Angela Lansbury as Jessica Fletcher from Murder She Wrote)

We’re now finally in the final stretch of my January-February models with the Zombicide contingent.

Zombicide Survivor Louise Zombicide Survivor Louise

The first one of these two figures is “Louise” – a standard boxed set survivor from the Season 3 “Rue Morgue” “standalone expansion” set. There’s apparently no specific inspiration for this character but if you ask me, there’s clearly some Rosie the Riveter DNA happening here. I pretty much followed CMON’s card art here with two small exceptions – I turned her work boots into purple Doc Martens and I gave the AK “orange wood” style plastic furniture as a bit of colour interest for the weapon. A pretty good sculpt overall, though her flashlight looks like something else. Maybe a microphone? She’s also in an extremely bent standing angle (check that top photo!) which I’ve since heat treated to improve her posture.

Our second model for today is “Rose” which is based on Angela Lansbury from Murder She Wrote. It’s one of those shows that was on TV when I was young that I had no interest in watching – so I only know the bare minimum about it with Jessca Fletcher being a crime writer and going around solving the Murder Of The Week that presumably professional Detectives and Police weren’t all that good at. Anyway – we have another Zombicide Survivor – one who starts with a Flamethrower! (But no fuel!) Again, I followed CMON’s cart art which appeared to be based on clothing that Angela wore for the show.

As with the run of Ms.Marvels we’ve just had, these figures qualify both for Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 24-25, as well as Fembruary!

Zombicide 2nd Edition X Last Night On Earth: Character Crossover 3 – Timber Peak

Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivors: Jake Cartwright, Sally, Sherriff Anderson, Ed Baker

More figures on the Zombie-Sided part of our collection – these four being the last four previously-unpainted figures from unrelated Zombie game Last Night on Earth‘s Timber Peak expansion.

Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivors: Jake Cartwright, Sally, Sherriff Anderson, Ed Baker

Timber Peak features a few characters from the original core set – those who managed to canonically survive the events of the initial outbreak depicted in the first box, I guess. Regardless, following on the previous LNOE Zombicide cards we made several months ago, it was time to make some new ones for these four.

Last Night On Earth Survivor Sally

So first we have Sally. Her miniature looks much the same. Slightly longer hair, slightly longer axe handle, slightly shorter skirt. Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivor: Zombicide Card - Sally, Woodinvale Survivor

We also made up a new Zombicide Survivor card for these returning survivors, with a few upgrades but trying not to go as far as the official “Ultimate Survivor” figures.

Same deal with Jake. He appears to have turned his fur-lined ushanka cap around, as it looks like he was wearing it inside out in his initial run. Perhaps he just found a better one. He also traded in his axes for a rifle, so we just tweaked some skills to reflect that, and have him a basic rifle as starting gear as an “upgraded” version of the survivor.

Last Night On Earth Survivor Sherriff Anderson

Sherriff Anderson has in some ways had the biggest change. He ditched his jacket but apparently was able to get leg-lengthening surgery in the interim. His hat is also a couple of sizes smaller, and so to match that he also had his head shrunk by a size or two.

 

All very normal looking – and a real triumph in boardgame miniature sculpting!

Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivor: Zombicide Card - Sherriff Anderson, Woodinvale Survivor

Again – just a few upgrades from the original in the vein of not-quite-as-extreme Ultimate Survivors.

Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivor: Zombicide Card - Ed Baker, Lumberjack

We then have Ed Baker – a new character from this expansion.

Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivor: Zombicide Card - Alice, Diner Waitress Last Night On Earth: Timber Peak Survivor: Zombicide Card - Nikki, Bush Pilot

We also made cards for the other two Timber Peak survivor models awhile ago, so why not include them in this post? Alice the Diner Waitress and Nikki the Bush Pilot. Once again, these cards were all made thanks to Wuxyteo’s website (not linked due to not secure – google it and you’ll be good).

And with that, we’re done for this post. These figures were painted in December over a few days after finishing work for the year, and so they just about fit in with Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 24-25 challenge concluding this month. How many models do I need to post up before the 28th of February that I finished in January and February? 

What’s the date today?

Oh!
