If you would like to see an amazing modelling project of an American town from about a half century ago, then take a look at the below link. The old cars are the star of the show:

Wow!

At first I thought it was real - but I'm easily fooled.

Where would he get the 1:24 scale zombies? Probably would not hurt to suggest that he do a Pulp 1950's photo album. This artist, Michael Paul Smith, makes architectural models and museum displays, among other things. Take a look at more of his work here, including interior models on page 16:

Wow those are impressive shots.  All it really needs is a giant Tarantula or a couple of flying saucers.
