"Zombie miniatures for Pike & Shot or Napoleonic setting?" Topic

Beside a few miniatures from Silver Bayonet and Eureka, what is available out there? Looking for 28mm or 40mm zombie miniatures in metal or plastic dressed in 17-19th century dress or uniforms. Grateful for any advice!

Matchlock via Minifigs/Caliver make a regency zombie hunters range link

Quite a lot of zombies in the Alternative Armies Flintloque fantasy napoleonics range

You can also add extra shakos, knapsacks, etc from the bits box to "Napoleonic-ify" regular zombies, in this case GW plastics:

Thanks for your comments! Great idea with "Napoleonic-ify" regular zombies. Maybe it is possible to "zombiefy" some regular Napoleonic miniatures?

Zombies = dead people.
Dead Napoleonic soldiers will likely have died from battle wounds (I appreciate I'm being very, very simplistic here), so why not just buy some Napoleonic troops and "bash them about a bit" to represent fatal wounds?
A small drill can make holes, representing shots from musket balls. Or a craft knife can be used to suggest cuts from swords, bayonets or lances.
I'd be tempted to have the zombies as the fairly "recently dead" – otherwise, if they are resurrected bodies from a good few years ago then not only will the flesh have started to decompose but the uniform will also have started to rot and discolour.
Alternatively, it's "your version of fantasy" so just go with whatever the heck you want or feel comfortable with. It's not as if anyone can criticise you for "inaccuracies". 😉

Great ideas! As I started to excavate my leadpile I realize that a 30 years war setting might be easier to achieve as they have no specific uniforms?

Have a look at my blog article – Napoleonic Zombies written back in 2018! There's a few pictures and ideas on this subject.

I hope that you find it useful. Regards, Steve

Thanks Steve, as a customer to Arcane, I have been drooling over that several times :)
