First..spend no money (it's an apocalypse you know)
« on: April 01, 2020, 07:11:42 PM »
Sooo...paraphrasing the Hippocratic oath so it's more in line with the 'wargamers who can't go to work oath' thought I would see what I could make with just the things I already own. I know..weird.
But any who my beautiful wife seems to have run out of jobs for my lockdowned ass to do so finally got around to doing a bit.

Bit of scenery, all made from scraps and bits lying around, toy car painted and wrecked and two salty looking dudes ready for the wasteland zone. Richards with fowling piece (solid slugs only please) and Barnes with 50.cal smg (need to take them mutants down in one shot if poss).

More to follow
Cheers all

They look great. Ready to take on whatever the post-apocalypse throws at them. (including those two ugly things)

I really like the colors you have going on the car in the first pics. Nice :)
a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

Ouch safe to say the cockpit crew didn't enjoy that landing much!  :o
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Nice work on the cars and terrain!
