Zombtober 2016 - week 3

Hi all

after the drama of missing cameramen and giant cat attacks, things have calmed down.  Gideon has stopped pinching my "little men" for the time being and has gone back to stealing other household objects and stashing them God knows where.  So I was able to put highlights on and repair some of the scuff marks to him.

So here we have "Bobby".  Bobby was working on news coverage of the "Mother of all Storms" Daenerys when the SS Richard Montgomery exploded and the Zombie Apocalypse was unleashed (see here). His reporter friend April has gone missing somewhere in the town of Margate and he has fallen back into what he knows, which is filming the news and what could be a bigger story than the end of the world!


next up is Donna. M. Atrix, Donna is an active member in her church and often volunteers at the local animal shelter during the day..... at night she assumes a slightly different identity!

work in progress, its a lot of black!!

the mean streets of the apocalypse!

the end to another week in Zombtober.

hope you enjoy

    Donna M. Atrix - what a cool name! I wouldn't want to mess with her. She looks like she knows how to take care of herself, even in a zombie apocalypse. Good paint jobs on both figures.

    Excellent job on them both dude. Donna is obviously a Vigilante ala Kick Ass :)

    I see what you mean about her being a fellow "entertainer" at the "Glory Hole" now Andy. Smashing figures, but if Bobby is filming Donna I'm a little worried that he has his hand in his pocket..... (or is that just my filthy mind).

    Cheers Roger

    Great duo. Having some special filming scenarios would make some interesting games.

    If Donna realises that Bobby's been filming her, there could be trouble. Both look great.

    Love the figs and the backstories are a nice touch. The cameraman is a great idea, can't wait to see them in action.

    Great pair (and I don't mean Donna's)
    Bobby is a great character for game but Donna I feel may be a little under-dressed imo.
