Title: SoTR US checkpoint and Zombie diorama
Post by: Anatoli on 10 July 2012, 11:04:28 AM
This is hilarious and super cool at the same time. A friend of a friend had made this awesome weird WW2 diorama featuring Secrets of the Third Reich and Incursion German zombies and US troops. I got a CD with the pictures during our last gameday from a third friend who thought I would like it and perhaps consider posting and sharing it on my blog. Not really knowing what to expect I came home and popped the CD into my computer - I laughed out loud!

Depicting a checkpoint guarded by the 6th armored division about to be overrun by evil Nazi zombies the diorama hits exploitation overdrive with the remodeled "Gretel" miniature standing atop a V-gas dispenser machine. As if the original sculpt wasn’t burlesque enough!

Brilliant idea and full of goofy ideas, like the zombie crew trapped in the Hetzer tank, the zombies tripping into the pond and the signs adding additional comedy value.
 
I hope you guys enjoy the pictures! (40 pics on my blog)

Wow, this diorama is fantastic...I love the trapped Zombie in the tank, he's hilarious and the upside down zombie in the water is equally funny. Gretel now looks like she's the younger sister of Ilsa (Shewolf of the SS).
