The first set which I was able to complete was another 4 Studio Miniatures plastic zombies. Now, I have painted quite a few of these now, so I decided to use the Wargames Factory survivor heads just to add a bit of variation, which has been quite successful I think. At any rate, I have one more sprue of the Studio Miniatures Zombies, of which I think a couple of them will become survivors, but then again, I do have plans for more conversions....
And as a close up on them, trying to show off some of their details:
The (former) cop- perhaps one of Bob's that didn't quite make it?
Pizza Delivery Boy
Angry Zombie in blue jeans
Classy windbreaker Zombie
This is the first of a few batches of Zombies I was able to get finished, the horde just keeps on growing! I have decided that my Zombie horde needs to be at least three times as large as my number of survivors. That means that by the end of the year, by the time I finish this project I will have to have completed well over 150 zombies!
Challenge accepted :)

Nice zombies got to love the cop and the pizza delivery boy... i think 150 zombies is enought for a great zombie apocalypse great work.
ReplyDeleteWell, it will be a challenge to get to 150 if nothing else!
DeleteThe pizza delivery boy is one of my favourites so far....
more nice zombies. the details are great and they are the thing that makes painting similar figures entertaining!
ReplyDeleteJust a few little changes was enough to make them different from the others- I am definitely going to have another go at that methinks!
DeleteEven just using the WF heads on these has made some more unique zombies to addto your growing horde. 150 is a good target imo and at the rate you're going quite acheivable.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I totally agree, the simple change has really made for a big difference. Will definitely have another go at it!
DeleteYou'll always need more zombies! These look like they will do the job nicely :-) .
ReplyDeleteAlways need more Zombies. 150+ should be a pretty good start tho.....
DeleteGreat job dude! Thanks for the link. Really like your cop and pizza delivery boy, very nice details. 150 should make a nice horde. I've found that once you start painting them it's hard to stop at a set number.
ReplyDeleteOh I am sure I won't stop there! No problems with the link- your cops is what reminded me to look at the Wargames Factory survivor sprue, which in turn led to these guys.
DeleteNicely done! I like the police zombie. Reminding me of the first series of the walking dead for some reason :)
ReplyDeleteThanks- the (former) officer has come out better than I thought he would actually- and I totally agree that he is a flash back to season one!
Delete150 zombies is easily achievable. The hard part will be stopping there! :)
ReplyDeleteA 3-1 ration should put me somewhere up at 180-200 ish, but given I want the whole range from Studio Miniatures, have more conversions planned, and want to actually just make more standard plastics, and that is before we talk about the other manufacturers, I can't see me ever stopping!
DeleteDon't tell my wife that.
