One of the tasks that Dave Stone set us for this challenge was to model a figure that represented ourselves. While I can do the minor conversion or two, I am not up to a full blown conversions that people like IRO can do before breakfast.

Knowing my limitations I decided to hunt through my models to see if I had one that reflected me.

Before I disclose him I want to let you know that I take myself rather seriously as this post pretending to be a chocolate zombie from Easter 2020 shows:

“Pull my finger!”

“Little is known about Uncle Honk, as he likes to call himself. Most people think that he used to work in a circus. Some mutter that, more likely, he was a patient in a psychiatric hospital. What everyone knows for sure, however, is Uncle Honk is a brute with a taste for the circus world and zombicide. If he likes you, you can rely on him and all his formidable might. He’ll expect the same in return, of course. Uncle Honk likes to taunt zombies every once in a while, to get in a “funny” during a fight. With his blood-chilling laugh, Uncle Honk is both your best friend and your worst nightmare.” (Box Cover)

Some would say that this describes me to a tee!

Just to set the record straight – I have never worked in a circus the rest………..?

Uncle Honk is the creation of one of Zombicide’s Special guests, Kevin Walker.

“Kevin Walker went freelance in 1987 and spent years illustrating for British comic 2000 AD and Games Workshop. There followed years of comics, both writing and illustrating, with a wide variety of media, before becoming a father and realizing it was time to get some work done. Illustrations for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game, several computer game projects and comic work followed, working for 2000AD, DC Comics, Dark Horse and Marvel. Working on Thunderbolts actually attracted some attention. He’s now the regular penciller and inker on Avengers Arena for Marvel Comics.

In recent years he has worked on cover art for titles such as Young Bond, Artemis Fowl, Changeling and Vampirates. He is currently working mostly for Marvel Comics from his home in Yorkshire, England.” (Box Cover)

The Special guest Zombicide figures come with a survivor and a zombivor (a sort of semi-intelligent zombie) version.

Some would say this looks more like our mate Steve N than myself.

Me the morning after:

I am not happy how these came out and they might get a re-paint in the near future.
