Zombicide Rue Morgue Survivors & Zombivors Dan & Maddie

I did not get much Zombicide completed in the last couple of months – so if I’m hoping to ever complete this mega project of 1st edition I need to pull my fist out. So then, we have this pair of characters from Rue Morgue – Dan the Fireman and Maddie, the …angry Twitter user? Seriously, her profile states “Maddie doesn’t think about her past anymore. All she sees are the simple facts of life and death, and right now she’s at war. A war against zombies in general and capitalist zombie pigs in particular!” She certainly looks like someone who fits the part there, anyway!

Dan was a pretty straightforward mini to paint – nothing crazy here nor anything really worth discussing, really. I used flouro yellow over the top of regular yellow for his satety stripes and added the ones in on his pants, so with the flouro, he pops a little more in real life.

Maddie on the other hand took ages to get finished – with a big break of several weeks until the final push to get her finished. She’s another one of those unnecessarily busy models with too much happening – I thought she was another one of the “I am Legend” KS backers but apparently not – she must be someone at Guillotine’s friend instead given the level of finnicky details – teddy bear, suspenders, 2 bound wounds, fucking buttons on her cutoff vest, etc. The mace she’s weilding is a little weird as well, and on the artwork it’s got something on it, so I painted it as an 8-ball.

Anyway, another two Survivors and Zombivors down! We’re nearing the end of the endless stream of boxed-game survivors, though there’s still more than a few “inspired by” Survivors and then “Guest Artist Box” Survivors to go after that.

Zombicide Rue Morgue: Zombie Skinner Walkers

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.
