Black Friday Bits

About the Project
I recently got some free Anvil Industry bits on a Black Friday Deal. I decided to make some random Sci-fi minis. (To avoid painting anything I've made so far.)

This Project is On Hold
Zombie Mech
I got lucky and had most of a Mech in my free bits bag.
(Legs, body and some left arms)
It got a zombie head to make it fit in with the team. Then a larger robotic arm was modified to be straight for the right arm. I added some big claws to the oversized arm to make it more of a weapon.
The claws are made out of 1mm plastic card.
Some copper wire was inserted in the zombies skull and into the Mech body. This hopefully ties the 2 elements together a bit.
Melee Troopers
I wanted some melee characters and Frostgrave Female Barbarian arms fit the bodies.
I think that these two rounded out the small team nicely.
Apart from the arms and weapons they are all made from free bits.
The Leader & Priest
The Leader was looking a bit out of place with the others so he got a skull plonked on his bearskin.
I had some Priest arms and the sleeves nicely matched the hazmat suit.
The priest with a flaming skull head got a suppressor on his gun. I imagine that the rest of the suppressors will not be used as suppressors.
I was able to construct these ones with only free bits.
Zombie Troopers
I had limited options for arms in the free bits. I tried to use all the free arms I could.
All the legs, body’s, heads, arms and heads fitted together with minimal modifications.
Not sure why these 2 ended up with zombie heads but I think it kinda worked.
The rest of the characters ended up being rather odd after I decided on using these heads.
I found myself quickly heading in a John Blanche direction.
Matching Legs with Bodies
I was able to construct 6 characters out of the free bits. 2 zombie heads were used from purchased bits.
I don’t have any use for these minis at the moment. The plan is to stick bits together to make cool stuff. Although I am trying to make a team rather than completely unrelated characters.
I think I got quite lucky with the free bits. There is a nice range of stuff here.
