Infecting Mayhem City 09 (Grekwood Zombie Doctors)


When the zombies begin to overrun the streets, many of the infected will wind up in emergency clinics and doctor's offices.   That would result in doctors being among the highest at risk for infection. And that brings us to this week's zombies from Grekwood Miniatures.  

                                   

Starting on the left, we have a red haired female doctor.   Stethoscope still around her neck, she has only minor wounds, so I upped her gore by bloodying her hand as though she had ripped someone apart.  The blond female doctor looks pretty unscathed from the front, though I bloodied her shirt up anyway.  But from the back, she has a minor wound in the buttocks, but quite a gaping on to the back of the head.   It wasn't enough to destroy the brain, as she is still walking, but her hair has been ripped in that area, leading to a lot of blood loss.  Who knows, maybe the wound was from before she became a Zed.  The African American doctor has also been feeding, and bleeding a lot from the head.  He also has a stethoscope but it is mostly obscured by his blood loss.  I am a pretty big fan of his head tilt, as though he has just heard a sound giving away the location of his next meal.   The final male doctor is virtually unwounded, but has fed recently, and is looking to do so again.

As a group, I really enjoy this set of Zombies.  One can never have enough zombie doctors, so while these aren't the most original concept for zeds, they fit a role that every zombie gamer needs (and needs lots of).  These doctors are well sculpted, with great little details like lots of pockets, doctor gear and the African American even has a neck tie.

So I highly recommend them, and you can get them at a good price from Grekwood Miniatures.   It's a new company, so we should all support them (Though I'm sure many of the people reading this have already heard of them/ordered from them).  The end result will only be more zombie related sculpts!

Comments are always appreciated.

  2. Having just received the full range of Grekwood hospital zombies, I can confirm just how well sculpted they are and also mention how quick and friendly the company is. Nice paint jobs, Adam and congrats on getting them painted so quickly.

    1. They are a great company with great interaction with the community.
      I did manage to paint them quickly, as receiving them lit a spark under me. I have gotten a little slack as I paint the horde of VF Zombies (which are not as good of sculpts as the Grekwood minis). It was nice to have new motivation.

  4. Hey cheers for the great review! I'm glad you received them and you are happy with them :) Nice paint job, I have to say you must have read my mind... When I was sculpting the doctor with the head tilt, I made him more "african" style in appearance (face features), so I'm really happy that you painted him like that as it's how I would have painted him :)

    2. Cool, I look forward to seeing them! I'll hopefully be bringing out some 30mm bases this month, and then more figures next month :)

  5. I've been over there and they are brilliant and you've done a good job Adam but I'm selling my 28mm and going down the demented road of 15mm zombies!

    1. Thanks Fran.
      I can understand the purge of 28mm for 15mm, especially since you collect so many minis. Myself, I need the detail and appearance of 28mm gaming, but I have been tempted to try side projects in 15mm. There are a lot of good options there as well.

    1. They seem to be mostly focus on studying the brain at this point.
