That zombie EMT is excellent. The naked zombie is good but why is he wearing a diaper?
:)
I dont like either hero very much.
The dio scenes are very cool and im loving all of those random zombies.

Here are my quick-and-dirty submissions:

Zombie Shia
Repainted Indy4 "Mutt Williams"

I wanted to go back to the classic Romero-style zeds, which were basically actors in makeup and minimal prosthetics (also, I'm too cheap to chop up a figure).
The skin tone looks darker in photos, but it's actually a pale khaki drybrushed with white and blueish highlights.


The bite mark on his right hand doesn't look right from this angle, but I carved a piece out and painted a crescent of teeth marks around it.


Shaun, Zed Killer
Repainted Star Trek "Scotty" head
Repainted Avatar "Parker Selfridge" body
Hand-carved cricket bat from balsa wood




Action shots

I'm copying the hell out of that Shaun! (Just happened to pick that base figure up for $3.00 while on vacation.)
And that action shot is just the icing on the cake.

Go for it! Share the result with us here. :)
When I saw the Scotty figure I knew I'd use the head for a Shaun bash, but a suitable body eluded me until I saw the Avatar figure.

Nice repaint.
PTE guys have really good articulation despite being so cheap-looking, which is why I like them. Now if they'd only have more varied (and less goofy) expressions...

They've got better hip articulation than Marvel figures.


Oh yeah, I said that shit!

The head came, so now it's a matter of getting it all prepped and painted.

Maybe add an action feature.

Action feature? Like what kung fu grip or tornado kick?

Something a little less offensive. I scrapped the idea, but i can revisit it later.


Mine's all painted up, I just want to do some pastel weathering and see if i can get an "accessory" made. Need to get some Loctite so he can be reassembled.


I am having doubts about a color choice I made, though

9 days left, people!


I know, I know, before anyone starts with the pot & kettle analogies I'll have you know that all I need to do is get some action shots, and no, I am not enthusiastic about doing them.

Poppycock, we proceed as planned!

It's not our fault you were distracted by an inferior toy line!
