Reaper Miniature's Zombies - 77053
I painted these three zombies from the Kickstarter on Sunday while watching the original Resident Evil movie on Netflix - it was the perfect movie for this painting session! Call me a fanboy - I'm big on Milla Jovovich going back to her role in The Fifth Element (which ranks near the top on my list of favorite sci-fi movies).
I was able to crank out everything except the base which I completed tonight.
Again, the value of the Bones figures is pretty awesome - $5.49 for a pack of three bones. The metal figure is in their Legends line as 3598B and will set you back $3.99 a piece.
Painting instructions for Zombies:
Step 01: Undercoat model with black paint (not primer - it will eat into the plastic and cause tackiness)
Step 02: Paint all flesh with Camo Green
Step 03: Drybrush all flesh with Rotting Flesh
Step 04: Drybrush highlights on flesh with Pallid Flesh
Step 05: Paint tattered pants with Regal Blue
Step 06: Drybrush tattered pants with Enchanted Blue
Step 07: Drybrush highlights of tattered pants with Lightning Blue
Step 08: Drybrush highlights on hair with Shadow Grey
Step 09: Drybrush Codex Grey on base
Step 10: Drybrush Fortress Grey on base
Step 11: Drybrush Skull White on base
Kickstarter paint total: 44 + 3 Zombies = 47

Reaper Miniature's Mummy - 77144
Another Kickstarter model 77144 - purchasing this model from a retailer will have 3 in the pack for $5.49 or the original metal model can be purchased (2156) for $4.99. The Kickstarter came with only one of these in the Vampire package. I didn't overthink painting the model - again, the best purpose for the Bones line of miniatures from Reaper is to get them painted up for the gaming table - so this was a quick drybrush and a bit of fine detail on the face.
Painting instructions for Mummy:
Step 01: Undercoat model with black paint (not primer - it will eat into the plastic and cause tackiness)
Step 02: Drybrush Desert Yellow
Step 03: Drybrush Bleached Bone
Step 04: Drybrush Skull White
Step 05: Use Rotting Flesh on face
Step 06: Use watered down Sepia ink on face
Step 07: Highlight face features with Rotting Flesh
Step 08: Use Skull White on lower teeth
Step 09: Drybrush Codex Grey on base
Step 10: Drybrush Fortress Grey on base
Step 11: Drybrush Skull White on base
Kickstarter paint total: 43 + 1 Mummy = 44
