Hey all, i've been working on a figure range for Night of the living dead (the 1968 movie). It's taken me some time to actually finish these, but most of them are done. I've just got to take the pics, which i'll do when they're all completed. I've done the figures in "waves" so here are the 2 waves 
Wave 1:
Barbara (Coat figure): This is a figure of Barbara from the movie, i used the Daphne figure from the Scooby Doo collection and customized it to look like her. She has her white coat on (which can be removed). She also comes with a grave (don't know why i added that, just thought it'd look cool lol).
Ben: This Ben figure is one of the hardest i'd done. I took Shaggy's body (from the Scooby Doo figure set) and painted the shirt white, i then took a Samuel L.Jackson figure (don't ask which one, i think it was Star wars one lol) and placed it on the head of the body. I then took some blue jeans and placed them on for his bottom half lol. He comes with a hammer, a gun and sofa which can set on fire (not really lol, but there is a trigger which can make flames pop up so it looks like it's on fire).
Tom and Judy Double Pack: These two were quite easy to make actually. I just used Fred's (scooby Doo again
) actual scuplt for Tom. I painted his hair black, his shirt red and his pants a cream colour. With Judy, i used a Hermione Granger figure (i think it was one of the original figure ranges), i took away her head and gave it a blonder look and tuck it on a Bratz dolls body (the doll was more of a figure, it had a denim coat on and blue jeans so it matches well). These two come with a 60s style TV and a radio 
The Cooper Family: These three were the easiest of the lot. They thrown together using some very simple figures, their looks were quite easy for me, so it was a lot better to make them. Harry Cooper had one of the chancellor's heads from Star Wars and a shirt, tie and brown pants. The Helen Cooper figure has a Jasmine from Aladdin head which was placed on a Velma from Scooby Doo body. The body has been repainted white with red stripes
. The Karen Coopy figure is made from a Regan MacNeil head i found (this was before she went all...posessed lol) and placed on a Sherry from Resident Evil's body.
Wave 2:
Barbara and Johnny (with Car): This figure pack is another Barb which is exactly the same as the earlier figure i made ^^^. Her Brother is just Shaggy's head placed on a suit body. His head is removable, so you can replace it with her zombiefied head. (thought it'd be a nice touch
). They also have a car too. The car is just a bog standard car i added to make it look like a better playset.
The Zombie Collection (5 pack): This is a collection of zombies which took me ages to get right. They are 5 memorable zombies from the movie. One is a blonde female zombie which was seen walking in almost every scene (low budget lol). Another one is the Graveyard zombie, the first zombie that killed Johnny and chased Barbara to the car. The next one is a zombie which nearly got to Barbara when it broke into the house and she was sat on a chair. Ben killed it lol. The next one is a older man in a white hospital thing (i think he was a doctor), the next one was a police zombie, which can be seen walking towards Tom and Judy once the car had blown up. Another one is the zombie in a suit, he smashes Ben's car lights lol.
Zombiefied Karen Cooper (with Basement Playset): This figure is the same as the Reagan McNeil figure i made earlier, only i changed her face to look more like a zombie. She comes with the basement, which was made using the Room of requirement playset from Harry Potter. The figure also comes with a cement trowel.
Unfinished:
The Farm House: I'm determind to get this done by Monday, then i can post all pics
. It's the farm house, which is made using the outside of a Sabrina Doll house. I removed everything inside the house and just kept the base, i painted it all white so now it looks a bit more like the house. I've started on the bottom floor with the kitchen and the living room, plus i've added something which will connect the basement (which come with Karen) to the house. I'm thinking of adding another graveyard zombie with this too 
That's it, if i'm happy with these once it's complete, i may do a Dawn of the Dead collection too
