I've replaced the earlier photos of the minis as I did a bit more to the faces and selectively added some grime.

I've also decided to remove the foliage from the cars and replace it with rubble.

I haven't got round to a game yet but here's some test shots of what the minis look like on the terrain:

They look very nice indeed, especially in your ruins.

I really liked the growth around the cars. Do some of both?

We have been working on adding a bit more green to our post-apoc setting to suggest Nature hard at work reclaiming ground. Adds colour to the table while providing more ways to mess with LOS without adding in yet another piece of hard-cover.

Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing

Thanks  :D

I know what you mean about nature reclaiming mans' detritus but the challenge I have is to make it work with  early WW1 terrain. I'll have to experiment.

Thanks  :D

I've now got boxes of the Warlord Survivors (shame they are  quite so tall) which I'll be modding with Perry and Studio plastic sprues for less 'dressy' survivor. Also have the parts to make another urban tile for the Belgium board.
