A nice group shot of walkers staggering across the board. Mixture here of Zombicide, Studio Miniatures, and Wargames Factory.
A runner, photo-bombing this walker shot. The walker in the middle is painted up as a doctor, while the runner is inspired by an old but well-known martial arts movie featuring Bruce Lee (or, if you're younger, by a quirky martial arts movie in two parts featuring Uma Thurman).
The Lady in the Daisy Dress. Most of the walkers from the Zombicide set were painted in plain colours, so I thought I'd ring the changes and do one in a flower print get-up.
Basic walkers, with desperate attempts to jazz them up (pink tie and red hair!).
Very bright blue suit on this chap. I promised myself I'd do the first 'try' of zombies as stock, and save any conversion work for tray 2. This miniature will appear again with an added pork pie hat, and piano keyboard tie, as a homage to Mystery Incorporated's Ska zombies.
Scantily-undergarmented lady zombies. Clearly, just before the zombie apocalypse, there was a sale on at Chanel, and they were getting rid of all their classic two-piece affairs.
More basic walkers. Again, when conversion time comes, look out for two of these three remodelled as the Top Gear team (with a Studio Miniatures Hammond, some 5mm shorter than the other two).
Studio Miniatures walkers pained up as office dude, jock, and loony old man in pyjamas. He's so crazy, I was too afraid to finish his base apparently. These chaps are a bit shorter than Zombicide minis, and not as dramatic or characterful, but being multipose hard styrene (like regular plastic kits) they are easy to remodel / convert.
Wargames Factory Zombie Vixens. I added the tray and drinks to the waitress, otherwise they're built as stock. The babe at left has a massive gunshot wound to the thigh, with bone visible. Ideal for the gorier minded player.
These three Wargames Factory Zombie Vixens look like they're dancing. They're meant to be a sort of pant-suited Jackie Brown, Marilyn Monroe, and a really clumsy jogger.
Not all the Wargames factory Vixens came out the way I'd envisioned them. The crawler looks pretty awkward, and would no doubt face-plant immediately if real. The cheerleader needs pom poms or something, and maybe a more glamorous head. To me, she looks like Jodie Foster in a stripey sack.
More vixens, this time with a Studio Miniatures Good Ol' Boy for company. The nurse looks the part, with Sigourney Weaver hair-do, and the hunter was great fun - what a fashion statement, with his choc chip camo top and tiger stripe cargo pants, fluorescent vest, and patriotic cap. The jogger in orange looks almost as bad in this picture as she looks in real life - not all heads go with all bodies. She appears to have been decapitated, and is attempting to stagger home balancing her loose head atop her bloodied neck.
