I picked up two boxes of the zombie vixens when they were first released from The Warstore,,,

Don't know if they ship to your corner of the world, but might be worth a look.

Still waiting on my Studio Miniature plastics ( two boxes + various perks), hoping they arive soon.

Woot got my 160 zombies in . These are so epic! The are actually dead on Infinity scale just the crappy bases they come with make it look a little off. Sooooooooo happy! I got 160 + 4 packs of extra resin heads + ~7 surivior/bonus metal zombies.

Thanks, but the Warstore has amongst the worst shipping rates I've ever seen to Australia. I got half of my Studio Zombies, along with an incorrect set of survivors. It turned out that Stuart missed/forgot my additional pledge, as well as the several emails stating I wanted half of them to be German Zombies (along with him saying no worries! I've got your email!).

So anyway, I'll hopefully get the rest of them within a couple more weeks.

So.. 2 weeks later. No German Zombies yet. I've started assembling the civilian zombies, and they are indeed very slight in stature, though they're proportions are okay. They're noticably smaller than even the Mantic ones though. With only 4 rather bland torsos and pretty much the same for arms (6 pair) they're not a real interesting set of zombies. I'd have been much happier if they were a little bigger, which would have made the parts cross-compatable with Mantic zombies and perhaps others. (without going anywhere near GW's zombie scale)

The detail level on the above picture is accurate - there's not a lot, but at the same time they're very small. The heads have basically no detail on the sides, being so tiny. Some don't even have ears. Out of the 8 heads, only one is partly skeletal, which is a shame. Most of the others could be used for scruffy living people. I think a bit more variety would have made the kit a lot better, but as a cheap set they appear alright, though you could very easily use the kit for the living homeless. The resin heads are far, far better than the standard ones in the plastic kit, but then again, after these are drybrushed and dipped, I'm not sure who would be able to tell the difference on any but the construction helmet head.

The hardest part is the tedium of scraping off the (small) mold lines on every component. Hopefully I can finish the assembly in a couple of days, then I can start the basecoats and maybe get them dipped by next weekend. If I'm lucky...

I guess this thread can also be bumped out of N&R. Not sure which subforum it can go to die. I guess the mods can decide.

Hmm apparently Studio Miniatures has been shut down for a while. That might explain your zombie germans MIA

From a TMP post


HOWEVER, before you place an order, remember that they are currently shut down until the end of the month (January 26th), so your order likely won't go out until the end of January/beginning of February, depending on how many orders they receive in the interim and how backed up they find themselves upon returning.

hi all is there any chance of keeping this thread going, and/or a way were we may have a place were to put projects of this sort in one place i.e.:- Zombie-apocalypse (or something) then in that link terrain idea's, model ideas, people wip's,
painting idea's conversions, concepts, pictures drawings and green stuff.... so if any one knows a admin to set this up
sorry for going on its that I think it would be a great idea, as I bought some z-clips by studio mini's, and I loved them and converted two at this time, but mainly because I think this model forum is one of the best I have visited and there isn't many people out there to get info from like the scale of the cars as 28 mm is between about 1:58-1:61 scale
if I may both are still in progress one with a severed arm and one based on my self, also being from Britain I am going to try and keep my models British looking

also may I add if you are after a lot of green stuff then search the troll trader on eBay
and I thought my idea was important sorry if I annoyed any one by bumping an old thread

If you have some pics of your zombies i would suggest starting a "post your zombie thread "or somthing along those lines in painting and modeling then people can add any they have done.
Im working on some 1:35th scale zombies/hunters and vehicals at the moment. .

It is hard m8 but the possibilities with your scale can be endless as with mine a lot of main vehicle Companies don't recognize 28mm figs
You should definitely get some wips and pics up on my thread
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/519034.page

And i have been searching for lots. Try eBay, and amazon but will keep an eye out other wise search tamiya as the have lots of vehicles , a bit expensive tho

also a quick search for you and found this.
