While individually based walkers look good, I like the idea of multiple walkers clumped all together and think it adds a lot more visually to the table.
Plus it turns out I have a bunch of figures in the same pose, so I chose those to go onto these horde bases.
I had a go at putting 5 figures on a base and I think I could have done a much better job positioning the figures on this first try. Honestly think I may scrap this base entirely and give it another try, visually it just doesn't look right to my eye.
I tried 4 figures on my second attempt and think I did a better job with the positioning.
Here's a group photo with some of the individually based walkers in the background - on the new work in progress city Walking Dead table.
Until next time, thanks for looking!

Cool idea and it does look good. Is this for different games or you using them for the walking dead?
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated Simon! For now just TWD, but hopefully they can find there way into something else as well.
DeleteGood idea, they look the business.
ReplyDeleteCheers George!
DeleteAm planning to base my zombie packs on cd's just cos i think they will look better on the table.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, I definitely think it looks a lot better. Filling up an entire cd with zombies is going to look terrifying on the tabletop for sure!
DeleteI think that works well Ivor & adds greatly visually as while from a gaming point of view its only one Z looking at them on the set will increase the sense of danger as it will appear that there are a lot more Z's so well done mate :)
ReplyDeleteMuch appreciated Frank! My only regret is not doing really thin bases on all my figures like you do - yours look SO much better on the tabletop than these "normal size" height bases.
Deletehaha not to late Ivor you can always redo them ;)
DeleteThat's the kind of encouragement I DON'T need Frank lol!
DeleteHi Ivor I found this a few weeks ago and meant to send it to you then. Better late than sorry. You've been Tangoed ;)

Well, that certainly would explain the huge discrepancy in views for that post compared to others.
ReplyDeleteI guess that's one you can check off the 'blogger goals', getting Tangoed lol! Though I wish he would have picked something a bit more interesting :)
Wanted to check in to see if you were going to run a game at Historicon this year. If so, I'd love to try to get into your game.
ReplyDeleteHey Joe! Unfortunately right now it looks like I won't be attending Historicon this year - fingers crossed that may change last minute, because this will be the first one I've missed in six years. If anything changes I will make a post to the blog - if I don't make it out, all the best to you and your game ☺
