Zomtober 2017 - Week 4

Zomtober zombie count: 8

    It's that time of the week again, so here are my next 3 entries for Zomtober 2017, the last 3 zombies from the Walking Dead; Walkers booster. I had planned to paint the booster as a single week's entry but as I quickly painted up the 3 I had ideas for, the remaining ones took longer for me to get going with.
   The end result was a slower painting process where different parts of the models made sense at different times; with the black girl being inspired by Colgar6's first zomtober entry *, the redneck in the middle screamed southern Trump supporter (make America great again hat, tattoos and all) so has been painted up as such, while the last model was the result of a google search to give me ideas.
   Although the last couple of these models proved a struggle to paint, I would rate them higher than most of the plastic zombie ranges I have come across so far, only held back by availability issues if you don't want to buy loads of survivors to get the zombie models - I would definitely buy another walker booster if Mantic bought a new one out.

*I'll be impressed if you
can work out how


Thanks for reading

  1. Nice work. I like the individuality of them. Mantic often given walkers away at shows, which might help with picking a few more up, there are also so many kickstarter sets knocking about that you might be able to pick up just zombies on eBay.

  2. Excellent stuff Mike. I especially like the clothing colour choices, but all three look excellent. You should be proud of your outputs over the 4 weeks so far. :)

  4. Top notch trio of zeds Michael, and I share your sentiments about Mantic releasing another booster - I reckon it would be a terrific idea!

    1. Thanks Fred. Looking through this year's zomtober, I think a lot of us have picked up the same booster.
