Last post for March – and actually we’ve got some April in here as well since I’m so behind.
The first sub-batch came out a little samey – the pants on our pink puffer jacket trio were supposed to be a bit more distinct than the final outcome, but once I’ve got more of these painted (there are SO many of these to paint) it’ll be fine. I also found one more standard walker who I’d missed, so he got painted as well.
These walkers – both the pink-jacket ones and these ones are the “Skinner” Zombies from Rue Morgue. In game terms a “kill” can sometimes result in them becoming “crawlers” instead of simply being removed. The setting is a post-Zombie Outbreak Hospital, so when trying to work out a way of distinguishing yet another sub-type of zombies, I decided to go with a hospital-green floor for my Skinners. It also combines nicely with the blood effect paint, which was a nice little plus to find.
I painted these ones as Hospital Orderlies, hence the dark blue-green clothing. Other models will be painted as staff and patients where I can manage to make them look as such. You’ll also notice that these mdoels have t-shirts, so I’m throwing it open to blog readers for some more suggestions. I do have to point out that these ones are REALLY small – even compared to previous batches of t-shirt-wearing zombies, so complicated patterns and logos just aren’t going to work on these. There’ll be another set of zombies after I finish these ones who are largely looking for metal/goth/punk t-shirts when I get to the Seekers from Angry Neighbours.
This last sub-batch of Zombies are from this month (April), and as noted got thrown into this post because… well… it’s pretty obvious. I also have the first four of the crawlers here as well.
The table where I usually photograph my round-ups is largely covered by another WIP project at the moment, so I’ll likely just keep posting into April’s models and then catch up on the round-up when I have a bit more space later on.
