From StuartL: These Girls Want To Meet Brainy Men (47.5 points)

My second post this week is a set of zombies for Warlord Games' Project Z game. All of the models are from Warlord's own range, which I believe the acquired from Wargames Factory a while ago. A friend of mine needed them painting up and I volunteered to help out.

The models were, honestly, a pain in the behind to paint. The connection points between the arms and the shoulders is incredibly small. Several times during the painting process a limb would go flying across the room or drop onto the floor, resulting in a lot of time spent scrabbling to find it.

I'm not altogether certain why, but a lot of the figures seem to be only partially clothed. Perhaps the zombie outbreak happened at a strippers convention? Regardless, they are all fairly gruesome with scratches, gouges and missing body parts aplenty.  

I'm not sure how my friend has based their other Project Z minis, so I just gave them a simple texture and a coat of grey for now. I haven't tried Project Z yet, but I think the zombies are more of an environmental hazard than the focus of the game, so for mindless walking dead, they should do the job.

So, for the final score, I estimate it as:
9.5x 28mm figures = 47.5 points and an extra point for my Squirrel collection.

My god, Doctor! Do you think this is how Ev became ill? Surely he wouldn't have- you know- with one of these zombies?

It is a mystery to me how many female zombies are, as you say, infected at stripper conventions. Regardless, zombies are always fun to paint and you can never have too many.
