The Haunted Village of Wortbad

LOOKIN' DEAD...& GOOD! The Living Impaired Lads are perfect inhabitants for Wortbad. GREAT WORK!  

They are really ugly. That's meant to be a compliment for these guys!

7 more zombies completed:

COOL UNDEAD! The Bearded Dead Guy to the right is a hands down favorite. GREAT WORK!  

I like the one made out of Flagellant-bitz best

Thanks guys!

18 down, 12 to go:

BRAINS! BRAINS! BEER! Zombies do look their best i horde formation. The Living Impaired Lads are a WONDERFULLY HORRID sight. VERY WELL DONE!  

G.W's plastic Zombies are favorites with moi; they are a outstanding source of parts for conversions. The hands, in particular, are beautifully sculpted.  

These are some nice no-nonsense zombies. The colours are very "natural", only the one in the middle front row has some mouldlines left on his helmet.

24 done, 6 to go!

Nothing like hordes of zombies.

NICE BACKGROUND! That setts the Dead Guys off SPLENDIDLY.  

Love the background.

Thanks guys!

It's just a test but I really like it - I'm going to try to take more photos with backdrops now! Picking the right image is the hardest part...

UBERCOOL...I just had a Michael Jackson moment!  

30 zombies: all done!



Next up: re-basing some Vampire Counts characters (Vampire, Necromancer, Tomb Banshee) onto 32mm round bases.

Well there goes the Neighborhood...or maybe, there is the Neighborhood. The Deadites look TERRIFIC. CONGRATULATIONS on a job WELL DONE!

Nice idea using the backdrops to get the atmosphere right, by the way, where did you get those from?

Thanks chaps!

I got this one from Deviant Art, after googling for "Haunted Forest" images:

The Rose and Scythe is a run-down fortified Coaching Inn, actually it is two houses built around the crumbling remains of an ancient building, “The Rose” is a tavern and “The Scythe” is a boarding house. It once server hearty food an strong ale but it has been silent and empty for years. For all its emptiness it still has the homely feeling of a good inn. Like most intact houses in Wortbad there are crude protective spells painted on door and window frames, homemade wards and totems hang from the beams overhead: relic bones and skulls of holy men guard against the darkness. When near them the living feel less afraid of the undead that plague the village.

I wanted to make some rotting houses for Wortbad, built around an ancient ruin from Ruins of Osgiliath, Watchtower and Chapel. I started building this over a year ago but other projects keep pushing in front of it in the queue. I have finally finished detailing it and I hope to start painting it this week.

They really look SPLENDID. The chimneys are particularly striking. Enjoy the painting et al!  

Very nice composition. I like all the various kits together.

It is great! Fluff too!

Great!
