    Thankz man!! I absolutely love him...My zombies and the mummy are my new faves now!! Sorry Tinman,Spidey and Cornelius...hehe EMCE's zombie kit really is worth the price...It totally is....You get 3 bodies,5 heads,2 sets hand/forearms,1 set feet plus clothes......Just a little skill and time and you have a one-of-a-kind GROSS figure.

      If i had anything to say; the mummy wrappings need some stains..but that's just me.
      I still love that gooey zombie with the chest plate. Love that paint job bro.
      Thank you....I never really got that good at weathering/rusting models...I was going to try that if the bandages turned out perfect, but alas,not...I used regular triangle gauze but that frays EASILY!! So i decided not to try...'sides, i wanna PLAY with him..i can't stand LOOKING at a toy i cannot mess with...hehe....Wayne

                  I copied and pasted from my site to posted here then I noticed "Read more:" with the link, it did added itself from my TMM.

                  I think it's ok to leave it with my post, if not I'll remove it.

                        seems like someone did it by soaking them in tea to get the aging. Or maybe it was Tanna leaves.

                          I was planning to do another mummy using a zombie again, maybe i'll try your tea leaves and see...maybe some spray starch to stop that infernal fraying with the gauze i used...

                            seems like the fraying would only make it better. Might try a wash with watered down earth tones followed with some off white dry brushing.

                                I did a few test stains on the gauze and it appears tea wins...You can vary the shading of it depending how long you leave it in,the strength of the tea itself....i think i'll use the tea, then apply some antique white after its wrapped...
