Rangers of Shadow Deep - Solo play project
Zombie celt
Greggore the Zombie.
His dying memory was to hold his sword close to him.
When some dark magic awoke him the wrist was broken but the hand tight shut. Then a hunger gripped him and hauled him up and sent him stumbling into his new undead existence.
The tartan attempt looks OK. The palid rotting skin was fun to paint. I have used the Warlord Games plastic celts for my Blood and Plunder conversions and other projects and now have run out. I can’t remember why his arm ended up being cut off or for what project. With SPQR I have been considering getting some celts, but with this guy having one arm I thought making him a zombie was a good option.
I cut the good arm at the wrist and reset it in a deliberately awkward angle. I imagine him flailing his arm at his target and the sword following after, rather than him using the sword as he had in life.
The head is a Mantic Games Zombie head. (Those zombie sprues are great.)
