“Berserkers are so bloodthirsty they could even lose a limb or two under heavy fire and keep on running toward you.

Berserker Zombies are immune to Ranged weapon Damage, except for weapons killing everything in their target Zone (such as a Molotov cocktail). Unless otherwise stated, the only way to kill a Berserker Zombie is in Melee Combat.” Fandom

Twenty more Berserker Zombies to add to the “Apocalypse”!

These blighters are a right royal pain in the backside. They are immune to ranged weapons (with the exception of a flame thrower or molotov cocktail), and can be only killed in hand to hand. This makes them a very dangerous opponent especially when the can also close quickly.

Dead is probably a bit of a tautology but you know what I mean – those double tapped in the head……………right!

These are great figures from TTCombat – “Corpses and Body Parts“. I particularly like the leg stumps standing in boots as I am just a weird old buzzard, although this lot doesn’t have any of those as I have already painted them last year cause they were so cool!

This makes my second lot, but you can never have enough dead zombies can you?

“Robert Bruce Banner, also known as the Hulk, is a major antagonist in Marvel Zombies, which takes place in an alternate version of the Marvel Universe, called Earth-2149, where all super-powered beings became infected by an extraterrestrial virus which transformed them into Zombies.

Alike the other Marvel superheroes, the Hulk ended up becoming infected with the zombie virus in an alternate reality known as Earth-2149. Unlike most incarnations of the Incredible Hulk, who are mostly aggressive, but good in nature, this zombified version of the green giant is even more of a rampaging beast who becomes eager to eat human flesh (definitely much worse than his Ultimate Marvel counterpart).” Fandom

THE TRANSFORMATION

The Finished Zulk

To get and idea of the size:

Normal 28mm toxic zombie on the right, followed by Toxic Fattie, Toxic Abomination and the ZULK himself.

The issues with the head ended up being a bonus as I dipped my toe in the green stuff water and am keen to learn and develop these additional skills. Special thanks to Dave, Pete, Eric and countless others for your encouragement, help, and advice of the last few weeks. I hope the outcome has been worth the ride for you as well!

Mutated beyond recognition, the Abomination is the Survivors’ worst nightmare. Only the most powerful weapons can kill this monster. A well-aimed Molotov or flame thrower will usually do the trick.

Below are several reviewers comments on this book whose erudite comments accurately portray my thoughts on the book

“Keeping ahead of terrorists requires innovative, up-to-date training. This follow-up to Stephen Sloan’s pioneering 1981 book, Simulating Terrorism, takes stock of twenty-first-century terrorism–then equips readers to effectively counter it. Quickly canvassing the evolution of terrorism–and of counterterrorism efforts–over the past thirty years, co-authors Sloan and Robert J. Bunker draw on examples from the early 2000s, following the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks, to emphasize the need to prevent or respond quickly to “active aggressors”–terrorists who announce their presence and seek credibility through killing. Training for such situations requires realistic simulations–whose effectiveness, the authors show, depends on incorporating red teams; that is, the groups that play the part of active aggressors.” UOP

“In Red Teams and Counterterrorism Training, Sloan and Bunker, developers of simulation-driven counterterrorist training, take readers through the prerequisites for and basic principles of conducting a successful simulation and preparing responders to face threats–whether from teenage shooters or from sophisticated terrorist organizations. The authors clearly explain how to create an effective red team whose members can operate from within the terrorists’ mindset. An innovative chapter by theater professional Roberta Sloan demonstrates how to use dramatic techniques to teach red teams believable role-playing.” CGU

“Rounding out this book, a case study of the 2009 shooting at Fort Hood illustrates the cost of failures in intelligence and underscores the still-current need for serious attention to potential threats. First responders–whether civilian or military–will find Red Teams and Counterterrorism Training indispensible as they address and deter terrorism now and in the future.” CGU

For those interested in “gaming” counter-terrorism then this is a must for your shelves.

The “green stuff” arrived from Mighty Ape today and my first effort at using this stuff was just OK.

You have to remember that the last time I did something like this was when playing with Plasticine at Kindergarten more than six decades ago!

I wanted the pustules to be of a suitable Zulk size to both fit with the size of the model and to cope with my virgin green stuff skills (is it still PC to use that word? Probably not one that is in regular use these days anyway!) .

I wanted to add some spiky bits just for interest and finally worked out a good way to make these.

The hair and missing part of the head came up well.

I am not sure how the finger claw will work out when dry, but it is just a case of wait and see.

“You all know how this shit works. You get a bite, you get any kind of wound from these things, something from them gets in you… and you fucking die.” —Negan talking about the zombies

“Walker” is a term for a member of the legions of the mobile deceased, who have come to dominate the world following the outbreak of the contagion that spawned them. This is the term used most frequently by groups of survivors, and to refers to reanimated corpses who are not dormant.

Another twenty “walker” zombies to add to the collection.

“It took us quite some time to realize that a vicious new zombie type had appeared. They look like your average walker and hide among average walkers, but they act like hysterical teenagers: unable to stay quiet, always moving, growling, and making useless noise. When several packs of these seekers, as we call them, arrive in a district, they make each other more aggressive. They get so quick that runners look like easy targets. If they’re amped up enough, seekers can rip apart a whole team in a few seconds. If you spot one of these bastards, blast it immediately. Otherwise, its whole gang will rush you for a free meal.” Fandom

18 more “Seeker” zombies completed.
