Title: Modern Zombie Hunters
Post by: iago on October 12, 2007, 10:27:15 PM
So I picked up a pack of 5 miniatures because I needed a single miniature from it. As a result, I had 4 extra , and my friend wanted to play a modern zombies game, so I figured I'd paint them up sort of militia looking, like a group of survivors after a zombie apocalypse. Here they are:

Thoughts? Comments?

This is the first time I've painted any considerable amount of black, so I'm curious what you guys think of the highlight on it. I tried the first one with a very gradual highlight on the black, and the third with a very sharp one. Any thoughts on which is better, or any comments on it?

Thanks!

See, the miniatures were designed to be black, but I decided to paint them white. In exchange, I figured I'd keep some of their black heritage. Plus, the colours look cool!

Anyway, after the zombies come, people are going to be less worried about skin colour and more worried about their mortal status.

The one with the Bob Marley hat made me laugh.

They look good, as usual.  Nice job. :)
