Making 60 of these, it's just such fun to do. Sorry about the speed painting and cr@p phone camera.

Actually I can see the bases need another coat

**Paint_To_Redemption**

Very cool. Like the guy with the missile sticking through him and would love to see a clearer pic.

**nwns**

Thank you very much, will attempt to take one now

And now you've made me zoom in I have to fix lots of things!! They were meant to be ten minutes to table!!

**tilarium**

Love them! When I seen the rules in the new Apoc book for a zombie apocalypse book it's put the itch in me to make some zombie guard. I doubt mine will be half as cool as yours though.

**nwns**

They're the easiest thing in the world. Get a pack of Cadians, a corpse cart and a box of zombies. Mix and match to your taste, spray them 'necrotic flesh' and get the GW washes out

My favourite is the one coming out of his grave

**Leech**

Those are very cool. I always like Zombies and you've done yours very well.

**Tyranidcrusher**

These are super good, the blood looks awesome!

**timthehierodule**

Those are brillinant, sepecially the use of cadian parts

**gianlucafiorentini123**

Those look grotesque (In a good way) they put mine to shame.

**nwns**

Thank you, I'll post the full horde if I ever manage to get home........work away a lot and have to pretend it's my son's hobby

**nwns**

More Zombies, just a few more to paint....not getting time to do it

**Lucazi**

Maybe it's just me but I like the bases the way they are. I thought it was on purpose, it looks kind of like wood grain

**nwns**

It's just paint that's too thin and the wash has run over them.

**Insane Smile**

Disgusting! I like it!

**nwns**

Thank you :-)

Though it is not that necessary, I could agree on painting the bases more. Though I only am suggesting going down a couple tones to darken the bases up. It would keep the focus on what should be the focus, the dead flesh-meat bags. If the bases are any more elaborate, then less attention will be drawn to the zombies.

As they are, I think it looks great and in no need of work. The run over washes on the base also looks like it should be there. I was seeing the run over as pools of zombie -goo and pools of blood still leaking from the rotting corpse.

**Epicus Maximus**

awesome awesome awesome!

Can't wait to see them all done up and shambling forward on the table!!

**BigGreen**

Those are super nice. I thought about doing something simalar but I was worried that the scale would be too off to look good. BUt you pulled it off. Even with the cartoony faces of a lot of the Zombies the no joke bloody and real paint scheme makes it work. Good Job!

Nice blood effects, I feel like the grave zombie is kind of a rip off.. anyways I would have put a pair of boots in front of the lasgun and helmet, for it to be a 'proper' grave.

**Stephanius**

Great job!

Mine look simliar, but not as creative as yours (see attachment):

How did you do your blood? It looks great

**nwns**

It's Tamiya Clear Red - the quick an easy blood. load up a brush and blow it onto the model.

The grave ones are a rip off, I saw someone had done them and thought 'must make plague zombies like that immediately'

**BrotherOfBone**

Wow! How did you get that pearly effect on the eyes of the zombies? Would love to replicate that for my CSMs!

**nwns**

It's a pale grey citadel do with an agrax wash before it's quite dry and then some 'ard coat where you want shine.

**Zaki66**

Wow... very impressive... Papa Nurgle will be pleased!

**GrimDork**

Nice work! I especially like the mix of zombies with guardsmen parts, guardsmen with zombie parts, and fusions of the two. The fresh wounds and ample gore definitely state that they mean business

I made my own zombies out of mantic kits, its neat to see different approaches

**nwns**

Finally got Typhus and now have my horde almost shambling onwards, great fun on the table.

**Murenius**

Nicely done! Looks great

From what exactly did you take your Zombie parts?

**Chris_P**

Those look really cool. Nice job.

**Desubot**

Dude that guardsman with butt scratchier hands is hilarious
