From - Mike W: 28mm Zombicide Xenos, Survivors & Undead Egyptians (120 Points)

 This week  I have returned to a couple of themes that I began thus year's challenge with. Namely some Zombicide Invader figures and some Undead Egyptians!

My first figure is of a Survivor, 'Preacher Karl'  dressed in largely black and blue attire, I'm pretty pleased with the outcome.

Preacher Karl, showing teh blued armour nicely.

As usual a light undercoat followed by a wash of black speed paint. The artwork for this character hinted at some blue, so I decided to use a blue speed paint was on all armour and leatherwork.

Karl's other side!

Weapons, visor and backpack were painted in gun metal with a light black ink wash finishes this guy off nicely.

The Xenos group

The rest of the Zombicide batch was made up of 13 Xenos of various types. 3 x Tanks, 4 x Hunters and 6 x Workers, all done using the recipe I have described in previous posts.

Closer view

Difference thus time was that I was little impatient in applying the AP Rune Grey Speed Paint over the undercoat on the Workers!

Resulting in a lighter grey finish to these guys. I was annoyed at first but then realised even Xenos would likely have different skin tones, so I'm more relaxed about it now...

You can just make out the lighter complexion of some of these guys

The three Xenos Tanks, a worry for any survivor!

The four Hunters

In this group we're also 3 x Sentenal Guns, robotically controlled heavy weapons. I gave these a basic gun metal finish.

And the six Workers

And the reverse view.

Next up are a batch of undead Egyptians, some may say Khemri, I prefer to be a little less specific. THe figures are form a game called Ankh, which has some pretty cool Egyptian Gods figures, which I my get around to later.

5x Mummies

Again aaaaa cream undercoat followe dby a diluted AP Dark Ink wash and a follow-up drybrushhhhing of light cream bandage colouration. Gold was added to taste and weapons and shields styled to fit in with my existing undead army.

Two mummies painted as the manufacturers envisaged - no conversion work!

I did some convertung on three of the mummies, giving one a whip - to make him into a Discipline Lord, whist the other two where given GW shields and a sword or a spear.

Finished conversions.

To add to the mummies were the other three undead cat swarms that I sourced frm th esame eBay outlet as the mummies. I now have a total of 4 Cat swarms and these will operate much as traditional Khemri Beetle swarms

Not sure if any of the cats were originally lucky black cats....

but they've used up all their nine lives!

Finally a solitary Night Goblin, lost form last week's Greenskin batch when I was moving my office / studio furniture around after decorating the room!

Once lost and now found
