Hello all,
So another of the survivors got paint on her. This time it is Elsa, who apparently was a cat-burglar in 'normal' life. I was looking forward to painting her, but to be honest I was really disappointed with the quality of the sculpt. The body is a fine latex suit, and her weapons look mean, but the face and hair was a bit of a let-down. Especially on the zombivore version she looks more like a grinning monkey than human. In the end I was sufficently annoyed that she was finished as a rush job. She still looks alright from a distance...:
Perhaps, in time, I'll go back and highlight her latex-suit a bit more carefully and do something about her hair. At least her *primary assets* will probably attract most viewers attention, alleviating your criticisms concerning her facial features :-)
We've tested her once and her beginning skill (Break-in, a free, silent, open doors-action each round), is great at first but at later stages becomes less remarkable.On the other hand, she will become very, very mobile once in the red zone, so she should often be among the surviving survivors.
The official blurp for Elsa:
Despite the crappy face, she looks fine from a distance and will add some colour to the survivor-group.
Hope you liked Elsa - more survivors and zombies coming soon(ish).
All the best,
Kasper

"Next time, they might as well lock the door with gift wrap. It won’t be more secure, only prettier."
Born a beautiful girl in a poor family, Elsa
learned that agility, attractiveness, and subtlety could open all the
doors to wealth. Stealing precious goods was her daily adrenalin fix,
especially if it involved acrobatics and a real security challenge.
Elsa was running from the cops on the roofs when the zombies came and changed her life. Gold is useless now, but locked doors still shelter precious goods. Smiling and playful amidst the chaos, this kitten enjoys the apocalypse. All social barriers are down, only skill matters. And how skillful Elsa is!

The face might be disappointing but you've done a great job with the cat suit!
ReplyDeleteThe face on the survivor is OK I've seen a lot worse. Great job on the "primary assets". I must disagree with you on the zombivor's face, I think that's a great zombie face. I must admit to not being a huge fan of the zombivor concept anyway.
