From Mike W - Zombies Part Three (120 Points)

Another week and another instalment for my growing Zombie Horde. Don't worry everyone, at this rate I only have enough figures left for a couple weeks! But a Horde of some 120 figures should look pretty good on any tabletop set-up, especially if faced by but a few survivors!

This week's addition to the Horde

So this week I thought I'd concentrate on a few more of the characterful figures in the Zombcide range, to which end you'll get to see a Zombified Chinese Dancing Dragon, A Council Worker with  Grass Strimmer, a One Man Band and more.

It seems superfluous to tell you how I painted these little guys again so I'll let he pictures do the talking and add some comments as I post them.

Two Walkers flanking a Runner in a green tracksuit.

Three female Walkers, I missed a trick by not painting the central Air Hostess in Tamsin's blue uniform!
Instead I went for the classic Virgin Atlantic livery...


A One-man-Band Walker on the left, and female runner and housewife Walker.

For those not familiar with Zombicide, one of the concepts is that the Zombie Horde is attracted to noise (people moving, guns firing etc). With one of their own making a noise each time he takes a step, this could give a cornered survivor a break.

Two more housewife Walkers and a Shop Assistant on the Left.

Another Sandwich-board Walker, a central runner and a Council Worker struck down whilst strimming the grass verges 

Left a Runner, centre a Shakespearian actor and right another firefighter, this guy carries a fire axe.

Left a Chef, right a Walker and in the centre a Zombie that hasn't yet figured out how to escape from his coffin!

And the rear view of the back end of the Dragon

Finally two Fatties, left a Security Guard and right an unfortunate guy

First past the post today is Mike with an Epic load of Zombies.  I do like the variety in these figures and you've done fine work in bringing out the characters.  I think that a Zombie with a weed whacker is a complete nightmare!  Also really like the Chinese Dragon and wonder if there is a Zombie Pantomime Horse somewhere?  And yes I am afraid that you do need to repaint the stewardess in Tamsin's blue uni.

    1. The horde grows! Good on you for sticking with this project. Nothing scarier than a zen with a weed whacker!
      Cheers, MikeP
