So I ended up using a maroon color for Jacks Coattails.
Its a 1:1 mix of spattered Crimson and GW's Screamer Pink(which is more purple the pink)
The pants and vest I went with Dusky Skin for a nice mauve grey color.
theres a bump on the back of the cloak,which i thought was weird crease but I think its actually a molding error..but its in a recessed area thats curved..not sure how or if I should bother with trying to clean it up..looks like it needs a curved blade to ..
anyways here he is so far.

Jack the Ripper begins
zombie watson has a gloss cote drying and should be based tomorrow in the meantime I figured might as well keep this ball rolling and get a real villian done. Jack the Ripper suits the bill!
So cleaned him up and cut off the slot base and glued in the pins
Its raining here so used some brush on primer and a thinned down black wash to try and bring out the details for basecoating.
I'm kinda torn on the colors to use. Alot of figures in this series will have alot of black so was thinking of doing a deep purple suit color and just use black for the cloak thing and hat..maybe red for the bandanna..
Or..it could be that dudes wearing tails,its gotta be black..not sure..thoughts?

zombie watson continues
I've tried to blend the soft blue up to mostly ashen blue for the highlights on the suit..I think it looks ok..but i'm not sure if I need to add one more very slight brighter highlight on the tips of peaks..being a suit I'm not sure if that will make it look to shiny
Here he is so far.
applied another layer of highlights to the suit and highlighted the tie and metal bits
i think its better now..not sure if its abit to splotchy tho.

Zombie Watson continues
So Rocksmith 2014 might be sucking up alot of my paint time LOL..its a blast..much better then the original which is one of the only video games I still play..
Getting some painting in I decided to try abit more olive green in the flesh mix for Zombie watson..to mix it up abit and see how it works out..as well applied abit of white to the mix for the final highlights..I think it turned out ok.
Watsons eyes,.smallest I've ever seen LOL I think the dots will do tho they're abit lopsided.
I applied a mix of blackend brown and soft blue to make a wash and applied to the suit then applied one layer of softblue to buildup the midtone again. Might have to go back and apply one more layer...
so here he is so far.

Zombie Watson started
So got Zombie Holmes finished up and started on his partner in undeath Zombie Watson .
Got most of the basecoating done..went with softblue for the suit basecolor..gonna try and bring up the highlights onto that towards grey
I didn't realize he had a stethoscope around his neck at first but once I get some metallics done it will stand out better
