Part of the Zombie Legion
Back to the zombies! I am not posting this next batch because I don't have anything else to post, but rather that I want to be done with them at last!
The whole idea about those guys started with the one holding a scroll here. He was supposed to be a champion of one of the units and I was trying to come up with an idea to make him more interesting. Putting up a pointy hood with bleeding eyes seemed good enough. Then, when I was expanding the horde and I needed even more bodies, I started covering their heads with such hoods to keep the theme. It was especially useful on some bretonnian bodies, as those robes and coats are more difficult to damage and zombify than Free Company bodies, for example. Then I came up with a backstory for them, how they were blindly hunting undead, heretics and witches, not really bothering with trials. Not only it gave my horde some asshole victims but it also made one of them perfect to accompany the Pain Tree.
The tree idea came to me when I noticed that I have those cages from the Giant kit and I was wondering what to do with them - and then I decided to just hang them on a single tree, also using one of those hanged zombie torsos really as a hanged zombie torso. The twins, on the other hand, were an interesting way to use two extremely similar Flagellant bodies and two multi-ended whips I bought some time ago.
After finishing the horde I kinda regretted that I didn't get that Frostgrave Cultists box to really make a lot of them. Maybe I'll build and paint them as living humans - they would make good villains for my vampires.

Aleś spektakularnie im pobrudził te ubranka. To jakaś chemia lub pigmencik czy zwykła farba kładziona magicznymi metodami?
ReplyDeleteDzięki! To pigment od Andrea Miniatures napaćkany z Vallejo Matt Varnish, nic przesadnie magicznego ;)
DeleteKonwersje i malowanie wyszły bardzo dobrze. Modele ociekają klimatem. :)
ReplyDeleteWielkie dzięki! Cieszę się, że się podoba :)
