Victory Force Zombie Cheerleaders
I'm back!!! At least tonight. Its been almost a year. A crazy year with no zombies and no fun :) But we got some real fun tonight. Zombie Cheerleaders!!! From Victory Force, a great set of 6 zombies. This is the first personal painting I have done in ages. I took the opportunity to experiment a bit. I used a fresher look to the zombies, skintones that are almost human. I also used the opportunity to work on my hair technique a bit. Because of the girls red uniforms, I went minimal on the blood. Just by using the skin color lightly the basecoat of black showed thru enough to give a bruised look. I really dont have much time for personal projects so I do these quickly. I try not to be sloppy but I do need quicker techniques than I would do for a client. I hope you like them. They are available for your horde from Victory Force Miniatures; http://www.victoryforce.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=VFM&Product_Code=033004&Category_Code=creatures
Versus II
Another selection of adversaries this week. The heroes some I painted many many years ago, you may recognize the second figure... Zeds, a priest witha wooden cross thru his chest, the iconic Zombiesmith, a waitress who would rather serve herself and two more Zombiesmith favorites, at least the one of the end. Still no time to paint my zeds as I rebuild my business and life. I did get in the mail the new Wargames Factory Zombie Vixens, they look suhweet! I can't wait to dig into them, well I guess they would like to dig into me as well. To Bryan and all you other zed freaks, keep the flame burning, you're keeping me inspied to come back :)
nice job on the highlights
ReplyDeleteZombies....now they have armour and guns too!!!
ReplyDeleteGood work mate!
I like your paint work and the conversions work well. If you used these in ATZ they would have to be Smart Zombies.
ReplyDeleteI am embarrassed to say that I have yet to paint mine despite owning them for years!
Nice flesh tones and I like the eyes on the 4th one in.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys, I had a good time working on these. I wish Mark would make more zombies.
ReplyDeleteIt was good practice for when I do my swat team.
Now I know I can do my blacks to a level I like.
If you play other games and use other types of figs, zombies are great for practicing on. If you screw up you can always add blood to cover it up. Also if you are assembling a huge hoarde you can use any color you want on their clothing, so you can use the zeds to work out a color scheme for something else. This is especially helpful for a commission painter.
Bryan I have been reading a book series calling Living with the dead, they call them smarties in there. I dont know if they can use guns though. But they can rouse the shamblers to follow them.
ReplyDeleteWho is the author, Roger?
