Zombie of the Week #8: Louis

Louis

Louis cared a lot about his hair, much to the amusement of the rest of his frat house.  Despite the urgency of their situation, the other residents of Cappa Delta Gamma still managed a chuckle upon seeing Louis cadaver play with its floppy fringe, even in the grip of undeath.

Frat Corpse


Louis is another old GW (Marauder maybe?) zombie, probably sculpted by Gary Morley I think.  I first started to gather zombie figures for Necromunda games in the late nineties.  Back then pretty much the only option I had for 28mm figures was to buy from GW mail order.  As such I went through the catalogue and bought one of a whole load of those available.  I tried to get guys without weapons and in clothes that didnt look too medieval and ended up with guys like Louis.

I still cant really explain that boot though.  A Cappa Delta Gamma prank perhaps?

Edit: this year I went back over a whole load of my zombie minatures and added a bit more gore to them.  This brought them in line with some of the more recent zombies that I have painted and helps to give the whole lot a more unified look.  Hence the 2009 tag.
