I’m thinking about putting together a S.L.U.G. Zombies Chess set. I’m waiting to see what happens to the line because there are some figures yet to come that I would really like to include. But… if the apocalyptic death of the line happens… <breathe… breathe…> then I will have to use what I have now. So attached is probably what I would go with if no more figures are released.
I will have to construct bases for the figures and build a matching board for the set. I’m thinking I could go with White with zombie green dry brush for the hunters and black with zombie green dry brush for the zombies. I’ll have to experiment to see which looks best.
Again, if we get all 100+ sculpts, I will select different figures. For example, Brain Eating Brian (King on a throne) may have to replace King Guts, or The Dude Jesus Zombie would also have to be included somewhere. And if we get Sigourney, she may move to Queen and Angelina moves to Bishop. Of course, Jesse Ventura becomes my rook. Selecting the pawn is difficult because you need eight of them. I like Croc Dundee for the hunter set. I'm not real happy with Conan for the zombie pawn. But I've got a lot of that figure for some reason.
Suggestions? Which figures would you select for your chess set? How would you go about constructing the board?
