The Toxic Walker in the centre of the group has had a simple conversion that could be easily overlooked. I made her ponytail thicker but not longer.
The Toxic Walker fourth in line has had her ponytail both thickened and lengthened with modelling putty. In addition, I cut off her left arm at the shoulder.
For the Toxic Walker at the far right I repositioned her right arm so that she is clutching her stomach. This was done using the flame and cold water technique I have described previously.
The three Toxic Walkers shown to the left of the photos directly above and below were also free Kickstarter stretch goal figures that I received. The woman at the far left has had her right hand cut off.
The Toxic Walker standing next to her had her left arm cut off and glued back in place at her side. The gap at her shoulder was filled in with modelling putty.
The Toxic Walker dressed in white with the pink cardigan had a hole drilled all the way through her back and out her stomach.
And finally, we come to my conversion of Zombie Tramp. Who is Zombie Tramp? I hear you ask. I'd be very surprised if any of you have even heard of her. Zombie Tramp is the heroine of a series of comics produced by Action Labs Entertainment created by Dan Mendoza. Janey Belle was one of Hollywood's elite call girls with a rich and famous clientele. Her life changed when a corrupt sheriff, Julian Rudolf, coerced her to spend a night with his son, Jason. Sadly for Janey, the son turned out to be a flesh-eating zombie and he bit her. She escaped but soon died and came back to life as a zombie. Fate intervened when she met Xula, a voodoo queen. Xula instantly recognised something unique and different about zombie Janey - she still retained her soul. Xula took Janey under her wing and taught her all she knew. Together, they sought revenge against the Rudolfs.
Janey is virtually unkillable. Whenever she dies (and she does quite often!), her spirit leaves her body and takes over the body of the nearest human. She prefers taking over females to males but whoever she takes over quickly transforms into Janey in appearance. Janey is also a skilled necromancer and can reanimate the dead as well as transforming humans into zombies with a spell. It is hard to define Janey. She is not inherently evil, although she does torture and eat people who piss her off. Yes, she is a zombie, but a very intelligent zombie. She can speak and can easily pass for being human.
I fell in love with this character when I bought her first two mini-series in graphic novel format. Lately, she received her own on-going comic series and I am an avid collector of them. Zombie Tramp is the kind of person you'll either love or hate. Sure, she's bawdy, frequently nude or topless, foul-mouthed and has a bad attitude but she is also very lovable and extremely funny and there is far more to her than just another tits and ass superheroine. When it comes to collecting comics, Zombie Tramp is my one guilty pleasure.
When I saw the figure of the female Toxic Walker wearing the miniskirt I immediately saw a resemblance with Zombie Tramp and I knew I had to convert her. So, first I cut off all the spikes that covered her limbs. I remodeled her hair to give it more body. And I enlarged her breasts and made the decision not to cover them up. She certainly looks the part. If I was to use her in Zombicide it would have to be as a Zombivor. She is far too powerful to be a normal zombie.
I'll leave you with a few pictures of Zombie Tramp from the comics and real life (!).
