013-014 The Dark Knight and The Boy Wonder

That's right, it's Batman and Robin. A bit of green stuff on to make bats, the ears and the cord on his cape. Robin is a basic zomb model with a familiar color scheme (he may have lost some of his tumbling skills as he has scraped his knee pretty bad). I do like how Batman Zombie's skin color is actually part of the "costume". I'm all out of zombs but if a few find there way to me in the future I may try sticking with the DC theme and making a Superman or Green Lantern. If you've been keeping up, Green Arrow was Zombie #007. Oh better idea, Joker Zombie. Why didn't I think of that before I ran out of materials?

012 - Dehydration Zombie

This zombie just looks dry, even though some blood is still dripping on the rocks under him. He gets this look from being almost all dry brushed with light colors. I know this description is a bit weak but next week has not one great zombie, but two. So I'm hoping that makes up for this one, again not that this guy is bad (I do like how his pants turned out, and the big bloody rock under his guts) he just doesn't have many defining features..

011 - Reaping Zombie

The scythe is a normal weapon for the zombs so I could have them in abundance, but I only have one equipped. I just figure is kind of a unique weapon to see so I wouldn't believe a few in a unit. I know its a farming tool and multiple workers would be in the field with them, but I figure most zombs get raised from the ground and them pick something up in battle. Besides if zombs were coming at me in the field, id probably see them coming and run home and get an axe or something. It also doesn't stack all that well in the unit either. Nice bit for a single zomb though.

OK, enough about he scythe, this zombs skin is unique too. I painted it very early in my painting career when I didn't own anything other than red, brown and white colors and had none to borrow at the moment. But thanks to Slick's donation I got a gummy condition green paint from reaper that has this zomb with a look of his own (it was a huge pain which is why it'll never get used again). Also this is one of the few zombs with a fleshed in eye socket too, telling you he lost it before he died.
