Football hooligans. 60's Mods and Rockers. Good start on some models bangin' their heads on the punk rock, but some looking like they're in a mosh pit of zombies might be cool.

One to add to the improvised weapons pack: A collapse-able sign ala slippery when wet, for those times when zombies invade the mall. Also a length of length of lead pipe and a tyre-iron would be sweet.

Also started work on some civilian/CDC/Radiation Hazmat Suited figures, if anyone has ideas to add for equipment etc for them don't hesitate to pm me. I plan to leave the hands open so you can add different weapons/tools/equipment. Plan to do one Male, one Female and maybe a kneeling figure. Pics soon.

I'll second the pregnant women thing. Did you see the recent conversion in the Show-Off thread? It was beautiful!

Abe Vigoda. Why has no miniature company sculpted this man?

Ok, here's a "not" for you -- Alacard, from Hellsing.

Yeah, that would be pretty cool. And a not-Seras Victoria police woman with a big-@$$ sniper rifle to go with would be sweet!

In addition to Cyborg Jimmy Carter and Rocket Nixon whom I periodically mention, a "Not Othar Tryggvassen" from Phil Foglio's Girl Genius webcomic would be spiffy.

I think a not-Wolverine would be good as well.... or a Not-Doctor Who.

Not Wolverine would be pretty hard. He has a pretty distinct look. I suppose you could make somekind of a guy with claws, but it would be very different I would think.

Space Zombies.

The Thing/ The Flood/ Necromprhs
from
The Thing/ Halo/ Dead Space


I'm also digging the not Alcard and Not Seras. Some modern Vampires to got with them would be cool too. Like a Evil Vampire priest.

Continuing the Vampire speel. Vampire Nazis are almost as cool as Zombie Nazies.

One more Blackstar Privateer: Multipose, with separate arms, torso, and a laser rifle.

That way I could fill out a force.

Ditto. The Blackstar Privateers have their heavy weapons. I'd like to see squad types, but instead of a laser rifle, something similar to an automatic shotgun. With the powered armor they wear, I think they are the up close and personal types, and doubt they take cover and shoot from range. Let the NOVA troops play that role.

Ok, I'll hit you with a real sculpting challenge, since I'm not aware of any miniature company that's done something similar.

A not-Oracle. A female computer tech in a wheelchair.

There is a person in a wheelchair in the Superfigs line. Just doing a male and/or female in a wheelchair is not a bad idea. You could use it as a standard civilian or with a little modding make a Professor X or Oracle, as you suggested. Maybe a computer tech accesory pack to help out.

Wheelchair zombie hunter or hero of any kind, male and female. Let's not see the industry neglect a segment of our society.
