Wracks..............well a single Wrack :P

Morning readers, time for another quick update I had promised zombies last time but unfortunately I got distracted, you can all blame that villainous Mr Feral for this, as I was talking to him on MSN the other day and mentioned that i had an idea for converting some Wracks from the new Dark Eldar codex mainly as their wont be any models available to represent them for a while, he of course told me to make it so I have:

Wracks

Wracks

Wracks

He is based off an empire flagellent with a lot of GS work drawing heavily from the art work in the Dark Eldar codex, so he sports an iron mask, an additional spine and random drug dispensers plugged directly into his swollen back.

He is a little rough around the edges but hes only a test model after all If I decide to to a force of DE he will get tidied up and might gain some friends :P

So what do you think guys?

For the champion I used the power fist from the chaos lord kit had to cut down the middle finger so as it matched more with the rest of the fingers, I also decided to have a go at doing some gore dripping from the fist using some small strands of Green stuff dont think it turned out to badly :)

I'm still working on converting the mantic zombies too, will hopefully have a few of them to show in a couple of days time, speaking of zombies I picked up this the other day:

Few of my friends have told me to read it so I thought I would, will give me some inspiration for zombies models. I'm spoilt for choice with inspiration at the moment what with the Walking Dead being on tv now too, saw the firs episode last week on FX and loved it, quite looking forward to episode 2 tonight.

well thats it for now, should have another update in a few days time possibly with Dark Eldar in the near future if I can decide if I want to buy some or not

The zombie Apocalypse begins

Evening readers, time for an update from me , last time I gave a bit of a sneak peek at the first of my survivors for my zombie apocalypse stuff, well today you get to see the first zombie :D

On Saturday I ordered Mantics 30 model Zombie regiment and today they arrived so of course I had to set straight to work on making a test model :P . Now I wanted to test 2 things with the Mantic zombies mainly how well I could GS modern looking clothes onto them and also how easily I could convert some of them to be female zombies with Undeath being an equal opportunities job and all :P

So I made like a zombie business woman type thing:

over all I'm quite pleased with it, the tattered loin cloth the legs had on them was easy to use as the basis for the skirt, I then shaved down the torso, arms and face to make them look less male add a GS shirt and hair and done even added a high heeled shoe to her one foot :P

I'm in the process of making another 2 zombies this time male, tough it is taking some time to cut down the loin cloths already molded onto the models :( will hopefully be worth it though :)

As ever feel free to drop me a comment and let me know what you think :D
