Nicely done. Your basing also displays the figures well.

Che (Mysterious Stranger -Haunted Gunfighter) and Chief Brody (Sheriff)





Che is from the Americano Mercianorios pack made by Pulp Figures.  I used GS to add sideburns and extend his mustache so that he has a glorious trucker stashe.  His Lewis Gun is a counts-as assault rifle with the large caliber upgrade.

Chief Brody is from Lead Adventure's Contaminated Seas model line.

Che needs to watch his step!  Great looking figures.

Superb basing too - love the little scorpion, rusty tin can and old cardboard boxes.

Thanks.  I'll take credit for addition of the scorpion, but I can't take credit for the boxes and cans.  Those features came with the bases. 

Micro Art Studio's Highway Bases are among the best post-apoc bases that I've found.  They are scattered with small bits of debris, but they are mostly flat so one has plenty of room to position the model and add some additional details, such as clumps of grass, a skull, a large bottle of moonshine, or a giant mutant goldfish.  :D

I use the 25mm rounds.  Below is an image from MAS's website.

I converted one of the Lead Adventure Contaminated Seas models to serve as a Milita Gunsmith armed with a grenade launcher.  The grenade launcher is one of my favorite weapons in the game.  Not only is it a blast weapon, but it's one of the few weapons in the game that can deviate, so it's possible for the shot to 'miss' but still result in a 'hit'.  Also, because you target a spot on the table rather than a model, you have a bit more flexibility when deciding where to place your shot.

Here's a photo of the model from LA's site.




The grenade launcher is a bit too large for the model, but I didn't have a better one in my bitz box, so I went with it

Ishmael (Militiaman) & Tashtego (Militiaman)






Like O'Connell, Ishmael is a Merchant Sailor made by Pulp Miniatures.

Tashtego is from Brigade Games' Post Apocalyptic Minis line. Originally, the model was holding a short barrel shotgun.  I removed everything but the shotgun's stock and added a rifle's action and barrel.
