How handy is it to have a vast militia that's just planted in the ground, waiting to pop out when needed?

That's what this faction of undead Imperial Guard were supposed to do











I'll post a few more images later!

Very cool, where did you get the head for the guy kneeling?

That might have been one of the skulls you find stuck on the chaos vehicle spikey bits. A lot of my skulls come from those!

Very undeady. I hope your client was very satisfied.

So much for "only in death does duty end." Never seen zombie-guard before, they look awesome.

Oh my goodness.. Those are great! I really like the colour scheme, did you pant any more? I'd love to see them...

Here's a few more pics that I found...






I didn't get a chance to make any more of these guys, as the project kinda ended early...

Absolutely amazing! Will these be used as an avenging Imperial force, or dirty traitor guard?

Love 'em, good work.

Thats a great idea and nice execution. Professional paint jobs all around, great work!

Love them. btw, I'm 80% sure that that skull head is from the old VC skeleton box.

Wow, I really like those - simple but effective. Thanks - I have a small bunch of Guard & Undead I was going to sell...I might just undeadify ( ) them instead as they wouldn't go for much...

I'd love to see a whole army done like that - top work. Thanks for sharing

Awesome. I'd love to see some heavy weapon teams or tanks.

Many thanks!

Maybe someday I can get back to those guys. Right now the focus is all on Dark Eldar, trying to get them ready for Adepticon!!!!!!

I just posted the first color test for the Grotesques on the blog yesterday

Just look awesome! Anyone else thinking Horus Hersey False Gods?

that's a really clever idea. nicely painted one thing that's missing for me, though, is some evidence of their original cause of death. aside from some scratches and dents, their uniforms are in great shape. I'd expect to see slashes, bullet wounds and other trauma on the recently dead. just a thought for next time

Soon as I saw them the first thing I thought was how cool it would be to see a power sword or something stabbed through one of their chests.
