Hey DakkaDakka!

Here's something I've spent this week working on, that's been fun, and aligned very nicely with my borderline obsession with anything zombies! I hope you like it








The zombies are a mix of Mantic Games zombies, and the zombies found in Last Night on Earth, a survival board game me and some friends play. Well, used to now I did all the OSL with my airbrush, spraying citadel blazing orange directionally, and then working yriel yellow highlights, up to pure ceramite white on the torxh.

Thanks for looking!

Ian

I don't know how extensive your lighting setup is, but maybe re-shooting it in the dark with the only light coming from the torch guy would be a little more dramatic and sort of show what you were doing with the OSL?

Not sure how that would work without getting a weird (unrealistic, relatively speaking) shadow of the guy though. Maybe light from above and behind the torch guy?

EDIT: Forgot to say, it's really, really good looking. Amazing, really.

I know, I know.. I have three lamps, and at most angles they either create awkward shadow or overpower the effect! This was all three overhead, and came out the best. Ill try again for ya!

Sweet zombie hoards! The OSL is awesome.

Cheers Grotzar!

Sweet!

Hey Ianpowell, might I ask where you got the survivor with the torch? I suddenly have the urge to include him in my ATZ games. Cheers.

Other than that, the diorama looks incredibly awesome. Good work.

He is from the Last Night On Earth game, but you can buy just the figures here:

Cheers! Yes, as CptJake said, Last Night on Earth! Nice miniatures, kinda crappy game.
