Title: Zombies... we like Zombies
Post by: Buzzbomb on February 02, 2014, 10:18:56 AM

Picked this bust up at WonderFest 2013 for not many dollars  I recall.
It took my "Walking Dead" type fancy.
Just a single session of paint work and it came out OK.. not WonderFest figure Standard OK.. but my OK.

All paint is Vallejo acrylics, but cheated with the eyes.. used some nifty eye decals as a tester.. also picked up at Wonderfest
Cheating??? Perhaps...but they really do look great.

Outstanding work !!   

BTW, Archer Fine Decals (Transfers??),  do a whole series if "eyeball"decals in a bunch of scales. I was on Hobbylinc,USA, last night and they were stocked up on them as well as their rivits, fasteners, bolts and weld seams from them,too.

Yes, I'm sure if I look up "zombie" in Webster's, this is exactly what I'll see next to the definition.

I'd never have known the eyes were decals if you hadn't told me. I really like the convincing, necrotic paintwork too!
