Into the final stretch of Toxic Zombies! We’ve got the first batch of the boys. Naturally, we have no skimpy underwear here – just torn pants and torn t-shirts. I guess there’s that hint of alluiring tighty-whities peeking over the top of their pants in the rear, but other than that, no sign of “sexy zombies” at all for these boys!
Following up from the three different sculpts of female Toxic walkers, we have the first of the three male sculpts – with these ones being the ones I judged as the simplest ones to paint, since they only have pants and t-shirts, while both the other sculpts also have jackets. More layers, you see equals more paints and more care needed. With these being simpler, I was able to get them from base-painted to finished over the course of this last weekend.
I would have liked to open these ones up for more t-shirt nominations, and I would have done so if not for the huge tear down the front of this sculpt’s t-shirt, which kinda wrecks any kind of print, and makes them more trouble than they’re worth for something that would be obscured. I have a couple of them a hint of a print, but really didn’t put much effort at all into them, just enough to imply that some logo or another might be on them.
With these eight done, I’ve got 18 left to go for the Toxic remainders. I’ve started working on them, so the bases are done, and I’ve started on their pants. At some point I’ll probably break them up into two more batches based on sculpt (10 and 8) to get them finished. I’d originally hoped to get a batch done each month, but now I’m wondering if I can get a batch of these bastards done each week instead so I can get these over and done so we can get the expansion onto the tabletop…
