Zombie Dawg

2011-08-02T12:28:00.000-07:00

I haven't had much time to work on my zombies

while my life falls apart so here's an oldie but goody
a zombie wolf or dog. I wish there were more zombie
dogs available. Not many besides the occassional

undead wolf. Now go out and pet your dog and be

glad he doesn't loom like this :)

The other version of the Spinespur set, i
fear the middle guy was a bit daft and turned
around right in the photoshoot. Probably my last
post for a while. All my time needs to be put
towards work for the time being. Speaking of
which I paint zeds for money. Check out my
main site at
http://rogpaint.homestead.com/
Cheers everyone and thank you!

More Ziggies!

2011-07-07T22:29:00.000-07:00

Not much time this week so I'll let the zeds speak for themselves.
If anyone would be kind enough to call out what they are

I would appreciate it. Sorry about being short winded, but

I'm dealing with a full sized crisis, not 30mm :) Cheers!

A mixed bag

2011-06-29T17:15:00.000-07:00

The first 2 here are homeless bums who have become

zombies. They are a combination of Wargames Factory

zeds and ancient germans.

Victims, survivors and mixed up plastics

2011-06-23T14:29:00.000-07:00

Hello friends, have anyone good for lunch, bwahahaha?

This week we have a mixed bag, starting off with 3
victims from the Superfigs Civilian range, next is a

Ral Parthaslave girl who would probably be part of

a marauders harem. Next we have 3 survivors,

the first two I think are Copplestone and the girl

with the tank top is a Void fig? Joining our fresh
meat today are two mashed up Wargames Factory
zeds where I used parts from the zombie sprue

and other parts from the ancient germans sprue.

Their sizing is off a bit but if you mangle them

enough they dont look half bad.
Thats it for this week and don't forget to check

Amazon kindle for some .99 cent zombie ebooks.

They are great for gaming ideas and are often

way better reads than the price would suggest.

Copplestone SWAT Zombies

2011-06-14T16:01:00.000-07:00

Two sets of these guys, I did some slight conversions

to make the duplicateslook different.

A pleasant little conversion....

2011-06-09T16:36:00.000-07:00

This is a pregnant zombie with her fetus scratching
his way out. I used The Black Orc Pregnant Native Girl
which was perfect for the job and did some converting.
I cut a hole into the stomach and then used green stuff
to model the babies face and hand bursting thru. The
sculpt didnt work too well but I got the idea across.
I'm sure many of you could come up with better results
if you want something really disgusting in your horde ;)

I just finished 32 zombies and have plenty more

to show so I should have some stuff for you

in the weeks to come. I do want to give a tutorial

on how I do skin. Til next week remember to
always double tap!

Four A, Black Orc and Gary Hunt zombies

2011-06-09T16:25:00.000-07:00

First off is a figure from a set of Four A zombies
(more to come soon), a Black Orc Games -
Zeek the one armed zombie(always more of these

to come) and finally a set of 4 miniatures
from Gary Hunt miniatures. I hope he makes more
they are very cool. This post is a revised version
of one I had up. I tried to clean it up and
screwed it up even more so then I deleted it
sorry about your lost comments.

Screwed up link

2011-05-31T16:42:00.000-07:00

Somehow the link to this image ended up with the type? I guess I may as well forget that career as website designer, huh. Anyway heres the pic hopefully done right this time.

Back with a new shambling horde

2011-05-26T21:32:00.000-07:00

Hello zombfans, unfortunately I have been unable to post anything or even paint any zeds for that matter. Life got in the way. But I have started painting little by little and here I have a jumble of a variety of zombies. Anyway I will let the zombies do the talking.

Here are some juvenile survivors.

These guys are rage zombies from the game Road Rage.

These last three were gifts from my good friend,

Vampifan Bryan Scott, they are very old Citadel zeds.

Thanks Bryan I love these guys!

Chronoscope modern figs

2010-08-09T22:14:00.000-07:00

Large group of moderns great for use
in your zed games or other modern stuff.
Again a commission lot. I think the next post will
be some of my own survivor figs, continuing
the theme before getting back to the living dead.

A thank you

2010-08-09T12:49:00.000-07:00

to my new followers for joining up. I appreciate your interest in my painting
and your friendship. Of course a kudos to my long time followers and friends
for still coming back even though I post so infrequently.

2010-08-08T18:20:00.001-07:00

These are the excellent Kev White adventurer figures, painted for
a client who prefers to do his own bases, hence the unfinished bases.

These are two of my own HF figures, based in the usual manner
I am using for my zombie world.

Studio Miniatures set 2

2010-04-01T14:30:00.000-07:00

Set two sadly has no chicken but it does have a lot of grisly
hamburger faced zeds and some very interesting ones. I especially like
the girl with the beret.

Studio miniatures zombies set 1

2010-04-01T14:26:00.000-07:00

I did these for a client. They were very popular on facebook and other places so I thought I should share them here of all places. Its the first two sets including the extras. They are excellent sculpts and paint very well. They may very well be the best sculpts of zombies out there.

New zombies from Mega Minis

2009-12-07T01:23:00.000-08:00

Always happy to see Mega Miniatures release some new zeds,

these are parodies named Grosso Clown, Scary Potter and

Filthy Harry. These are superior sculpts. I especially love

the clown! Check them out at

2009-11-07T23:27:00.001-08:00

More great hospital zeds from Recreational Conflict.

I especially love the nurse with the broken neck!

Black Cat Bases Scenery

2009-08-31T19:17:00.000-07:00

Some great resin modern or PA scenery from Black Cat Games

a really great company with really cool stuff and perfect service.

We have some trashed couches and mattresses here. They are

fun to paint and as you can see I got a little carried away, I'm

not sure that a zed would even lay on these babies!

The Torn by Spinespur original figures

2009-08-25T18:10:00.000-07:00

Edit: I have learned from Spinespur that these figs are

discontinued due to how thin they came out. The figures

listed on their site, shown on webstores and Vampifans blog

are the ones that are available now. So to see what you can

actually buy please check out these sites. IN essence what

you see here is a limited run. Some may be available
somewhere but that is something you will have to find out

if you want these three. My apologies for not noticing.

Some creatures from Spinespur that make nice half

skinned nude zombies. Bloody and horrifying they make

a nice addition to my collection. Nice sculpts that are fun

to paint. I used alot of drybrushing and washes. I started

out with watered down elf flesh, then a red wash, followed

by blue and black washes. I dryvrushed them witha light
gray and then white. Afterwards I added really bloody
spots, highlighted their guts and painted the eyes white.

Zombie Patients Painted

2009-08-24T15:46:00.000-07:00

These are the same zombie patients I reviewed early,

finally painted. I am very happy with how easily they

paint up and how good they look afterwards. I am

encouraged to keep working on my 'hospital of the dead'

with all the good doctors, nurses and other hospital

staff and patients that are coming out now. There is

also a set of 4 Zombie Hospital Staff from

Recreational Conflict. You can find them all here;

The Zombie Freak

2009-08-11T16:23:00.000-07:00

A most unusual fig from the Black Orc sculptors page.
I call him the zombie freak. He certainly isn't your

average zombie but thats okay. He can be an abberation,

a freak, something very different and much more

deadly than the common shambler or rager. Sure

hes funny looking but dont let that fool you, those

overlong arms and big teeth can finish you off

quicker than a horde of regular garden variety

zeds! I love these Black Orc open sculpt figures

and remember they are only a buck. I've earmarked

a few more figs they have for conversions. But that is

for another day. Today the zombie freak rules!

Zedversions

2009-08-04T16:28:00.001-07:00

Well I'm up to 73 painted zombies on my way to 1,000. Getting to
1,000 means you grab up every zed you see and some you don't!
They are nearby in your bits box or odd miniature drawer...

This lovely lady zed started out as a beautiful resin
Fenryll miniature. Somehow its legs got broken off, also
her hand as she was gripping the base. She was a perfect
choice for a zed. Her outfit wasn't too fantasy to fit in
to the modern world. She was about to acquire the infection!
After gluing her to a 25mm base, I added some
wood filler to her broken off limbs, let it dry.
At that point she was ready to be primed and painted.
She won't be the fastest zombie on the table but she'll look good.

This guy was a Horrorclix clone. I thought he would make
a good zombie but when he got here I found out he had no
mouth. Fortunately he is soft plastic so a conversion would
take seconds. I sliced out a mouth hole with an exacto blade
and since he was pretty clean I added a lot of wood filler to
him and made him a bloody mess as some of your zeds
should be!

Painted Black Orc Zombies

2009-07-23T15:54:00.001-07:00

I bought these guys for $1 a piece. They paint up

really nice and are a great bargain. I especially

like the first one pictured, in the bathrobe.

Thats a great fig. Unique subject matter and good

facial expression. The two doctors are really good

sculpts and painted up nicely. The tough guy is

rather indescript until you paint him up, then he

comes to life. The guy with the slightly large head
also looks up better painted. Lastly the young lady
has her hair hanging in her face and has a knife
behind her back in a skeletal hand.
These are a great deal and I still have a bunch

more to paint. A steal if you are looking to bulk

up your zombie horde.

The army grows!

2009-07-18T18:37:00.000-07:00

I've been away for a while, busy with my commissions
and ebay but I managed to sneak a handful of nice things

in. Here they are in all their glory. Some stuff you may

have missed or passed up thats pretty good. When you
are aiming for an army of one thousand, no zed shall be
left behind.

7 zeds from Mega Minis, including 4 children. Great figs.
They have lots of them, too and very inexpensive.

These are zombies from Rezolution. They are some of my favorite.

I especially like the fat guy. The guy on the right is my first attempt

at undead african skin.

A repainted Horrorclix, I like much better this way.

Wyrd's monster baby makes a great zed.

I always pondered the idea of a boss zombie
like in the video games, you have bosses.

Maybe he started the plague. This guy is a Reaper
fantasy fig who is nuetral enough to look good in a

modern setting. I liked how his skin came out but

he has worms all over him. I hate worms so I painted

them black so they wouldnt show up too good!

My latest survivors, left to right, the Runaway from

Horrorclix, a Rafm fig and Billie from Hasslefree.

See you at the Zombie Apocalypse!

Black Orc Games Mini-Sculpt-Zombies!!!!

2009-06-17T19:24:00.001-07:00

I found some zombies in the Black Orc Games Mini-Sculpt

section, which is a place sculptors can sell their product on

a commission basis.. The figs are only $1 each and for the price

are a very nice find. Most are sculpted by Darren Greenaway

but there are a few other sculptors work here, so they have

some variety in size, style, etc. Aside from a dead chap

with a big head I thought they were nicely done for

the price. The service was very fast and pleasant, including

a freebie and unexpected discount. Including postage, etc for

$20 I have 14 zombies now to bulk out the army. They have

a variety of other figs as well. Check it out, you may see

something you like;

My favorite zombie, Prof. Emcee Square

2009-06-12T13:14:00.000-07:00

This is Professor Emcee Square, host of the Its Alive show.

He is a VIP and mover and shaker in the Pittsburgh area and

is a key person in the annual Zombie Walk. His show is
very well done although the movies are beyond ghastly,
guaranteed to put an insomniac to sleep! He shares the show

with an interesting cast of characters. You can see them on

the web at Itsalive.com

The value of Horrorclix zombies

2009-06-05T18:31:00.000-07:00

When I first started on my zombie project, I did it on the cheap

to make sure I really wanted to invest time and money into this.

So I researched it on TMP and came up with the Horrorclix line.

I found an online dealer selling horrorclix down as low as 25 cents

(MiniatureMarket.com)
The figs are nice, creative sculpts and some are painted

fairly well, only needing touchups. Other required repainting.

They were also easy to pop off their bases and add to a

25mm round base. Horrorclix has great figs,

they also have a great variety of other horror figs
that spur ideas for great horror games.

Beginning with scraps from the morgue....

2009-06-04T10:47:00.000-07:00

Bloody good folks! Always ready for a good time!

I started out on the cheap by touching up, repainting and

basing prepainted plastics from D&D, Horrorclix and

anything I found laying around the mortuar--uh

I mean basement. This worked well to get me quickly

started with at least ten figs with a few hours work.

One of the keys for me was that I needed to be able

to crank out the zeds quickly and still have

them look good. Historically I have never

painted more than one zombie the same way.

I decided that this is a good thing!

Dead people need their identity as well!

Somehow they managed to
survive this far into
the zombie apocalypse.

Figs are Superfigs-cheerleader painted in my school colors ahem, the tough guy is a heroclix fig and the dark skinned girl is a Power Rangers plastic fig, found at a flea market by Momzomb. The reddish haired girl is an X-men Boomer fig converted to have modern normal attire. The only sculpting is the roll ups on her jeans. The rest was cutting off the super hero gear. They are just the newest of my survivors.

I have been collecting Hasslefree, Superfigs, Megaminis and others for years. Now I have something to do with them!
