Hi chaps , thought I'd post a few pic of of few zombie Traitor Guard I got done last week to add to the 20 or so already done , they are just a bunch of kit bash WHFB zombies with Cadians and Catachan parts plus a bit of green stuff here and there . Enjoy !

They look really cool! But I have to say that the photography doesn't seem to do them justice. What lighting setup are you using?

Minis do look cool, though!

Thanks for the comment . You might well be right mate , I'm using a iPhone 3 and my lamp i use to light my painting area ! So nothing special , i did do a short camera course years ago , but never got any of the gear to do a really good job , gonna try improve the lighting tho

Considering what you're using, some of the images are pretty good!

If you're interested, here's a pretty good macro photography tutorial, including lighting:

A light box/tent is a good purchase and they're actually pretty cheap, and an extra lamp or two is useful. Do you have a digital camera (not the iPhone)? Even a basic £50 camera can take remarkably good close up shots, with the right setup.

Hope this helps!

Put a smile on my face! Nice work man!

There's only one axe ! But I take your point , whilst painting them i did actually think ' wish I bothered to replace all these giant dinosaur leg bones with lasguns......'
Oh well , I'll know for the next lot.
