Zombies!

Zombies from the 1980s citadel range.

1980s Zombies are recognised by their toppling, ragged stances.  A rank of these looked wonderfully erratic and decayed- you could almost smell them coming across the battlefield

Although anyone dead for a while would be bloodless, I decided to go for a fresh killed look- these guys are slaughtered and half eaten villagers raised by the Lichmasters spell only moments before.

You can get great blood by using Tamiya Clear Acrylic.  It gives such a wonderful bloody effect!  Matte varnish deadens it a bit, so spray gloss and brush on matte medium to deaden the shine on dry bits.
