The Zookeeper, or just Keeper
It is wellknown that the government has long attempted to control the living dead. Every method from simple baiting to elaborate exoskeletons has met with complete and utter failure. Dr. Michael Cuthbert was one of the men involved in Project Dominance. The goal of Dominance was to develop a cybernetic interface between a handler and a goul in order for the living mind to take control of the walking dead. Cuthbert volunteered to have a Dominance rig grafted to his spinal column. A mobile unit nicknamed a "scarab" was designed to graft itself to the brain of the zombie and act as a relay. Though the project met with early success the brains of the dead were ultimately destroyed by the Scarabs leaving the corpses inert and useless as weapons. Cuthbert left the institute in disgrace, taking a small supply of scarabs with him. It appears that the Scarab was much more compatible with lower level living brains.

Love it. I said it before and I'll say it again. Thanks. Awesome stuff right here. You added a whole new level to the ATR story that'll be able to tie together a bunch of loose ends

Very cool all around.

Now that you've got Zoo Keeper, you need Captain Yesterday, Cloberella and Super King to thwart him.

That's cool. The implant on his back looks properly painful. I like everything but the glossy finish.

Great Custom...but when I saw the title I thought "Why in the hell would anyone make a Kevin James custom"

Thanks for the compliments guys. I look forward to seeing how SGC works him into his story. Especially since I don't think the doc is a good guy or a bad guy. He just wanders the wastes.

Yep, that connection completely slipped my mind during the naming. I hope you weren't disappointed.

The finish is from my ink washes. I haven't been able to work out a recipe for a satin finish wash. I still like the way it looks, I don't mind my toys looking like shiny new toys, but I am looking for a Satin finish recipe as well.

The animals are lots of fun. My one critique would be that the backpacks on the rhino should "fold" to match the shape of the body. Other than that, these are perfect.

they are rigid frame packs, rather soft rucksacks. :) Or at least that is what my suspension of disbelief tells me.
