Hello all,
I must admit the arrival of 24 new survivors and zombivores made me panic a bit. I really like painting these minis, but I also want to play with painted miniatures and the drastic plastic pile was becoming intimidating.
So I've devoted a couple of days to painting the brilliant minis (well, most are brilliant) from Guillotine Games.
Mack, the Car Salesman, is the first of ten I managed to get finished:
Not a Golden Demon standard but sufficient for the boardgame. For some reason the awkwardly positioned survivor Mack got a really scared look - you might be able to see it in the pictures. I considered redoing his eyes, but figured it was quite appropriate.
Mack is armed with a vicious pair of Kukris - although the travails of becoming a Zombivore has meant he lost one - along with the scared look :-).
Mack is (I think) obviously meant to resemble Nicolas Cage as Cameron Poe in Con Air - although I don't think Mr. Cage (not the best actor in my book...) was ever cool enough to employ dual kukris?
His description in Zombicide is as follows:
"Time to test drive these kukris!"
Mack’s story is like most – an ordinary, happy man
until the zombies rose, forced to dig deep or die. His peaceful previous
life hid his true potential – unfortunately, it took burying his wife
and two daughters to bring it out. Taking a car from his lot, he began a
cross country zombicide, eventually joining the motley crew of
survivors. Mack’s fighting spirit has made him a precious resource for
any team, and his manic grin gets even wider the worse the odds are!
All in all, a nice mini and I think he will kill his share of zombies once he is let into the action.
All the best,
Kasper
Nicely done Kasper.
ReplyDeleteWe (the WNI) test drove this guy last night, he kicked some serious zombie ass.
Hi Bob,
DeleteWe havn't had the pleasure yet, but he does look like one of the more capable survivors. Now that he is painted, we will probably never draw him :-).
Love the gore on this one.
ReplyDeleteHi Michael - I try to apply gore only where the character-card-drawings have it, but in this case there was plenty of gore to be applied :-).
DeleteHola
ReplyDeleteQue bueno me gusta,muy sangriento como las pelis
un saludo
Thanks j.d. - "sangriento" is always appropriate :-)
DeleteNice work on this one. I have yet to paint him.
ReplyDeleteHi Siwoc, and thanks. He was put first in the line due to the simplicity of his clothing - white shirt, jeans and skin = very quick paint job :-).
