Berserker Walkers - Zombie Prison Guards

Hello all,

Still busy finishing papers for various conferences and the articles they spawn (got an interesting one on Pistis Sophia coming up, if anyone is interested :-)). So little - or rather, no painting happening, unfortunately.
I do still have a few miniatures painted that I havn't shown yet, so here are a few of the Berserker type of zombie walkers from Zombicide (of course).

To be consistent, they have the same blue colour to mark them as berserkers. I think it works better on the inmates (see the two fatties here, for example) than it does on these guards.

I felt obligated to paint them as American prison guards (according to my Google searches). Unfirtunately this does make them a bit muted and boring, but hey! their job is to be gunned down by our brave survivors so who cares, right? To be honest I felt a bit bored painting them and the finished models do, I think, show this to some extent.

They are ok sculpts - not the most outstanding of the Prison Outbreak zombies but they serve their purpose. I'll return to them sometime in the future and spice up their bases a bit.


All the best,

Berserker Fatties - Fast Food Addicts Bob and Larry

Hello all,
This being 'conference-season' and all, I hardly get to paint anything. Luckily, I've got a backlog of un-uploaded miniatures that I hope you wont mind looking at.
The two today are Fatties (and I do apologize for their name, but it is the official designation) of the Berserker type:

 Bob and Larry were both prison convicts - and I do imagine them being buddies - when the zombiefying disease descended on the jail they were in.

While the blue colour isn't 'canon' in the Zombiecide universe, I needed a colour that would instantly be clear and mark them as Berserking zombies. Having used green already for the toxics, blue seemed a natural choice. It works okay - especially against the orange prison uniforms.

We've tried using the Toxic and Berserker zombies a few times, but to be honest they only seem to complicate the game in a way that doesn't really make sense. Perhaps We will use them more in the future, but now, with all the new rules, boards, etc. there seems to more than enough fun with the basic game.

Booo!

Here Bob and Larry have found a nice used car salesman, somewhat surprised with requests.

All the best,
Kasper
