And now my final models for July and the 5th post of this run of Zombicide Survivors. We have an original(!) character called Alyana Heska as well as another “homage” character based on Will Ferell’s role in the Anchorman films (cue Kuribo in.. 3… 2… 1…)

Ms. Heska’s backstory is pretty simple. She’s a cosplayer at a con alongside her friend “Union Worker #42” but then suddenly, zombies! Luckily for her I guess her Katanas aren’t made from foam but actual cold steel.

I don’t know much about Wrath of Kings but I did finally find the stat card for Alyana. I backed the KS but then never did anything with the stuff. Some of it I’ll (probably/possibly) paint one day and other stuff I’ve long given away. Apparently the game is (was) pretty good but they pretty much saturated the market via the KS and there wasn’t enough interest left at retail, so CMoN eventually abandoned it. I got both Alyana and Union Worker as WoK KS exclusives as they were cross-marketing a lot of their other campaigns with Zombicide at the time.

For my Zombicide model, I pretty much did my best interpretation of the card art. I don’t love the coloour scheme but it is what it is I suppose. Finished models look decent and so we have another survivor ready for the game!

The second model of Ron Burgundy had a few options for paint, and in the end I went with the Burgundy suit from the second film. I know I saw the first one and it was all right, and I think I later watched the second one, which I guess tells you how memorable it was. I also painted his AK as the “Golden AK” which is one of the higher-quality “pimpmobile” weapons.

Regardless of how memorable or not the films were, with Ron Burgundy painted there’s once again the nice positive of having another survivor complete and ready to drop into our games.
