I am doing these for my friends German force. I have 2 test models done, i just have to get good pics of them. I'm hoping to get them tonight, so I'll place this teaser for now...

Hah...looking forward to them. Zombies rule.

Have not seen them for sale yet...when did they become available?

Those we havent got yet. I am converting all his troops into Suckerpunch zombies, the axis zombies will just fit into the theme.

Here is the test run, I'll be doing variations of this and the gas mask head for all of his troops...

Looking good, can't wait to see them painted!

Properly creepy. This is a good idea...might have to find some good cheap 1/44 soldiers to mod into basic battle-damaged undead and put them on DT bases.

Have not yet seen Suckerpunch so it took me a bit of thinking to draw the connection. Now I'm going to have to see the movie.

Looking cool so far. The only thing I would recommend is to sit the helmet lower on the troopers head. It looks alittle too high.

yeah, thats the one thing i need to work on for the rest of them.

What are you doing with the spare gasmask heads? If you still have them lying around, I would be willing to purchase them.

No, those will all be used, since those style helms and masks were on 90% of the zombies in Suckerpunch. The human heads were the ones needing to be changed, so i had to take slight liberty with the concept and do many more bare zombie heads than what the movie showed. And I'll give them more random steam lines to fit in. Heroes, like the officer in the movie will be the only ones without any steam lines, but I have already swapped Sigrids head with a suitable female zombie head.

I will also add that the gasmask heads will be redistributed throughout all the squads to give a more random appearance and not be restricted only to the squads they are currently used for.

Cool. Well I like how they look so far.

Im trying ot head swap all of my Axis to have the Recon Grenadier helmets and gas masks (except the laser grenadiers, I like how they look already). Right now I need to get replacements for my sniper/spotters and command squad. I bought some german gasmask heads from Secrets of the Third Reich, but am not pleased with them (tjhey are nice but they just dont fit in with the other gas-masks from DUST which I prefer).

Finally got an update, been working hard on them. This is a sampling of the armor 2 troops. Hopefully next weekend, I'll have a sampling of the the armor 3 zombies. I'll be steam piping the vehicles as well, still working on how to do those exactly, but hopefully they will turn out as well. Also have a shot of the finished color scheme for them. Still have some details (mouth and eyes) to pick out on this model, but thats the basic scheme

Another update from the weekend...

wanted to update a shot, tried getting zombied Sigrid (Zigrid?) and some of her cohorts with the finished basing (the adhesive I use over the top of the basing mix makes it more dirty ground with rubble. She came out blurred a bit, I'll try to get a better shot of her later. I'm hoping to get a vehicle done soon with some tubing added and kind of a dirty, oil smeared paintjob.

Update time! Adding power sources to my Armor 3 zombies. This was the test model, I'll be doing gasmask head swaps with a few to randomize their look, but I like how this turned out...

And the unit done, sans head swaps. Those will probably be next week as they are currently on order...

Great work on the conversions. Was there any relation to the Suckerpunch movie and the Dust comic series? There were way to many similarities to be a coincidance

Thanks very much, this is such a fun army to convert. I agree, that sequence in the movie and the models just seemed to click so well, I watched the movie and I instantly texted my buddy who plays axis and said, "I am turning your army into Suckerpunch germans!", so he's funding the conversions and I'm doing the work and when SSU finally appears, he will be giving me the army. I have taken a few liberties with the conversions just for visual appeal, as most of the Suckerpunch zombies were all the same except for the unmasked few. But I'm really looking forward to finishing this one. I'm trying currently to formulate a plan for the vehicles. My idea so far is to equip them with some larger steam cables and then do a grey paintjob and rust it out a bit, that's probably how it'll end up. I'm waiting on the larger power cables right now.

Never been a fan of Suckerpunch myself, but I gotta, say, these are some nice looking models!

i can't wait to see more.
