Loving those zombies, they look like they would make great counts-as plague zombies for a nurgle army headed by Typhus...

Its a great paint job to be sure but what really strikes me is the quality of the models being after being used to GW products.
Every aspect of WHFB seems to be done better by these guys.

Great job, only thing to suggest would be to offer a little color variation in the cloth, but really that's just getting into super critique, they're terrific models.

Thanks guys. I was really struggling with the cloth colors. The brown seemed so neutral.

Nice job, and very clever painting them on the bases while attached to the sprue. I may have to try this sometime!

EVERY Aspect?! Have you seen the Elves?!
That aside, I love the paintjob, I just cannot stand Mantic or their models!

Mantic really does some of the best undead models for the price. That having been said, I think your paintjob is fantastic! Something about the wounds in particular really stand out to me...

We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

They really deserve some sort of rainbow display diorama.

“Good people are quick to help others in need, without hesitation or requiring proof the need is genuine. The wicked will believe they are fighting for good, but when others are in need they’ll be reluctant to help, withholding compassion until they see proof of that need. And yet Evil is quick to condemn, vilify and attack. For Evil, proof isn’t needed to bring harm, only hatred and a belief in the cause.” |

Those things are hideous (in a good way)!
I really like how disorganized you've got them looking even though they're in ranks, just like zombies should be.
I'd feel sorry for any army lining up opposite of them, BRAAINS!

Those zombies look excellent. Almost makes me wish I'd grabbed undead instead of dwarves from the KoW kickstarter.
A little basing and they're set to go.
