Today I decided to have a break from my Build Something entry for a few hours and played with my Zombies . I got everything out on the table and took a few photos and then play tested the rules I'm trying to use . Chris Peers Future Wars with some mods for Zombie fighting . Somewhere along the line I seem to have made a big change in my flesh painting which I'm not happy about . :-[

I've settled on a setting now which is England in about 30 years time , sort of like the Film Doomsday . The Country is now ruled by King Harry who has built a secure enviroment to find a cure for the Zombie Plague . He has his own private Army and research facility (I still need to mod my Town hall building).

I think I need a bigger table .


The bridge to safety (or not?)


Some Terminators .


I think we're #@#%$ed.

I've still lots of buildings to do and lots of detail to add but the contest is taking all my time right now.

Lovely work!

Are the two buildings on the righthand side/front scratchbuilt, or plasticville like the one front middle?  Any close-ups of the buildings....?

Where did the trolley/fences on wheels come from?

Very nice idea, bit more post apoc/future war but in a good way. (Like the Doomsday style Berlin Wall)

Question, (unzombie related) Terminator dogs: where from?

Where did you get those nice kit buildings?

So many questions  :o hope I answer all of them  lol

Akula , the only kit building is the plasticville one at the front , the rest are scratchbuilt . The yellow buildings are shown earlier in this thread.
The trolley fences on wheels are N gauge fences stacked three high with Nitto 1/76th scale Sherman bogie wheels and various 1/48th scale Tamiya PIV brackets holding it all up.

Commander , the Terminator dogs are from Amazon and called runaway dogs if memory serves me right . I loved Doomsday except for the Medieval bit .

Joroas , all buildings are scratchbuilt with the exception of the Plasticville house dead centre front . This does have walls made from Wills cobblestone roading though . The cobblestone base boards are made from Wallpaper and were made for my FOW Berlin project .

Very nice table, seems a bit hopeless for the non-zombies though ;)

I love the terrain and the little blue police box hiding away in the corner! A very inspiring project.

Hi Steve , thanks for the comments .
The jungle fighters are really easy to convert , however they do look a little blobby next to the lead figures . I reduced the muscles on the shoulders to make them look a little better .
I have been working on this project without a break for ages except for the Build something entry . I probobly have other figures not posted yet so will have a look to see if I can add anything .
Incidently , last weekend I went back and used a mix of red and brown washes to fix the flesh paint jobs that I had mucked up .

I managed to dig up this from the dusty recesses of the site.

Since I have enjoyed seeing https://www.facebook.com/MadMaxVsTheHumungous I decided to add a Road Combat element to my collection with weapons to match.

The Car is Mad Max's Interceptor with Warrior Woman providing some extra protection.





I have some more information and photos on my Blog.

Great job on the vehicles, the Disney buggy is a really nice mod.
