Alright now, little time ago, Jamie from Oldschool Miniatures kindly sent me an orc and added this unreleased zombified slayer to paint.
Well dwarves are cool, slayers doubly so and zombies on top ? Say no more, this guy (sort of) quickly moved to the top of the queue.
It's a really cool sculpt from Juan Montano, full of oldschool charm, that paints really well.

I mostly worked with glazes on the skin to give a real rotten flesh appearance (as far as I know from TV series). Gave it a nice pair of trousers that either echo Obelix or my Mercenary band (or both who knows), add the mandatory livid milky white eye and rusted blade and you have a real fine little guy.
I'll be honest with you, I have one major regret with this guy, first thing I did after priming it was to go check the Mordheim rulebook only to realise that undead cannot hire a slayer... not cool... :/

He's joining the band and other undead nonetheless anyway :)
Another one in the bank, that feels good, I hope I can keep this pace a little while, plenty of half finished business all over the table that just needs a tiny push to be complete ! Wish me luck !
Avec les grosses chaleurs en ce moment, il n'a pas l'air très frais celui-là... XD
ReplyDeleteBravo, une belle peinture comme d'habitude ^^
Serviteur,
Merci ! Il devait déjà pas sentir la fleur au départ mais depuis sn accident et avec les températures il doit faire plus de victimes avec ses effluves qu'avec sa hache en effet :/
DeleteAw wow mate, that's one heck of a sculpt and I love the skin-tones.
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty cool sculpt right ? Great compromise between what you'd expect from both a slayer and a zombie.
DeleteCheers !
Oh, that's a turn I didn't expect! Haha, quite a cool concept, I love him!
ReplyDeleteIt really is, we'll see how many more of him there are !
DeleteWhat a fantstic model and even better paint job! I'm gonna have to get one of these when they are officialy released...hopefully.
ReplyDeleteIt really is a nice surprise, I'll be checking that sculptor for sure !
DeleteA slayer's natural orange hair definitely lends itself to a cool zombie color scheme seeing that most would've a pale green skin tone. Excellent work regardless of the rules! :)
ReplyDeleteCheers, I actually thought about the hair and considered if it might have to be duller or not, I opted to kept the deifnitite trademarks obvious for teh rule of cool !
DeleteImperator titan! Imperator titan! Imperator titan! Imperator titan! Imperator titan!
ReplyDeleteAhah ! I actually need a little push in the back to get back to this monster !
DeleteWow! I'm really digging these! And again, great contrast between reds and greens. Love that Sartosan Vampire miniature! I need one in my collection! :D
ReplyDeleteThat sartosan vampire really is a must and one of the greatest vampire thay've released, I love it. Thanks !
