Return of the Kitbashed dead

[Meddatron]

A few of my Kitbashed zombies. Most have been seen in some of my one-shots pics. Cop from last years Zombie contest. Heads from the Angel Forge.
Thanks for looking!

Um, these are MUCH more than simple kitbashes my friend.

Wow...that's a whole lot of zoms!

I thought kitbashed meant different lines combined? Could be simple swaps or more detailed?


Thanks!

It does it does, but what you've done is much more. I've always assumed kitbashed was JUST mixing lines. Like SW headswap onto a Joe body. These are full blown customs man. They deserve more credit.

Huh, I've never heard "kitbash" described that way (as limited to only swapping parts from other lines).

Kitbashing or model bashing is a practice whereby a new scale model is created by taking pieces out of commercial kits. These pieces may be added to a custom project or to another kit.

Swapping a Duke head onto an Airborne body, for instance.

Kitbashing is taking parts from multiple sources and using them on one figure. Generally just parts swapping. Paint, cutting (aside from light plastic removal to facilitate cohesive assembly) and sculpting need not apply. These are straight-up customs.

right on, I have been learn'ed.

I really dig the second zombie. Great work on all though.

This is what I always thought too...swapping legs,heads,even webgear is what I think of when I think kitbashing,even if it's 100% joe parts..once that paint comes out...you got yourself a custom.
