Zombie Horde
Zombies getting some color on the skin.

Storage
Here's my Vietnamese in storage. These are custom Flames of War trays from Feldherr and they work marvelously.
|
|
Storage
This is basically the infantry tray, you can fit 12 medium bases and 6 small ones. As you can see, there's usually small spots empty.
|
|
Storage
This is the smaller tank tray. There are some removable bits near the center in each stall, but as you can see Shermans fit just fine as is. This one takes 8 tanks. Caveat emptor: If your turrets are not separate, the tray may not be high enough.

Storage
This is the large tank tray. The Stugs would really fit in the smaller one too, I just had this handy. I guess this is for your Tigers and Stalins. If you have lots of assault guns, you may want to remove the dividers from the turret sections and use those for additional tanks.

Zombie Horde
Zombies after some sepia wash. I did wash the white lab coats separately with gray, sepia does not suit them at all.

British reinforcements
I got some more brits from TAG to flesh out my platoon. The ratio of launcher guys is really high, I'd rather see them in a separate heavy weapons set.
|

Zombie Horde
This is my new modern zombie horde. These are Wargames Factory 28mm plastics. The box said 28 miniatures, but mine had 30, in five sprues of six figures -- how can you get 28 out of that?
|
|
Zombie Horde
To be quite blunt, these are not the greatest figures under the sun. They'll pass as a dipped zombie horde but you really don't want to spend much effort on them because it's just not worth it.

A closer look at the shambling horde.

Here are my latest reinforcements. I can't actually field any of these with my tank company -based force yet, need to get some extra bits... or build a completely new rifle company -based list.

The doctors lead the way.

The obligatory overhead view.

Zombie Horde
That sickly green skin tone is my original GW Rotting Flesh color, which is 25 years old and still works just fine. Try that with the new GW paints...
|
|
Zombie Horde
The poses are actually pretty monotonous because of the way the figures are designed. The left arms are moulded with the upper body, and tend to hanging limp by the side. The right arms are separate, but they're almost all in stiff straight poses.
|
|
Zombie Horde
The other flaws in these figures include huge gaps between upper and lower bodies and very shallow detail. Their spindly stature may appeal to some, but not to me. But still, they sort of work and weren't too expensive. Not sure I'd buy any more, though.

Is this the line for the audition for the latest Michael Jackson video?

Zombie Horde
The five doctors. I gave one a full sepia wash before I remembered how bad an idea it was.

That's the machinegun platoon.

One of the Brownings in action.

A couple of 105mm howitzers. I'll need to get an arty HQ to actually field these. It's a slippery slope...
|

I'm really not used to doing these multibases.

Here's the mortar platoon. The poses are a bit monotonous, but perhaps still better than many 15mm manufacturers.
|
|

Mortar platoons come with six fireteams while machinegun platoon come with four. I've no idea why.
