Adriana's Last Stand

.
A quick shot of how my 15mm wasteland terrain is shaping up.

15mm Post Apocalypse Wasteland Outpost
& 'Adriana' (
ZH001 from The Scene)

Being the May Bank Holiday weekend - the emphasis of yesterday, today and tomorrow is definitely family orientated. So work on the wasteland terrain (all gaming) has come to a virtual standstill - but the wasteland terrain bases ground work has been painted and they are ready to throw on the table right now if I wanted- I'll catch up with the final detailing, rusting/weathering as and when during the week.

UPDATE:

If you feel suitably inspired, the van and cars in total came to around 40p, the oil drums are 10 for £1.50, the pipes are simply two straws picked up at Costa Coffee and CD from an old PC magazine. Including Polyfilla (spackle), glue and paint this terrain piece probably comes in around £1. Add liberal GW Washes, call it £1.50 all in.


Cheers
Mark

  1. You've inspired me, just last night I bought five cheap toy cars in order to make some wasteland terrain like yours. I couldn't find plastic though, so I will need to break out the power tools...

  2. Mark that looks great! I'm glad to see that, in your background, Adriana gets away from Silvio and is armed. :-)

    One suggestion on the cars -- the windscreens and other auto glass would probably not survive intact and would probably not rust ;-)

    Great work!

  3. Thanks for the positive and encouraging comments guys.

    Jon, true - but the car windows etc are simply moulded into the superstructure - I admit that did forget to mask the van windows - but I think the overall effect turned out better like this.

  4. Removing the "glass" on those model cars would be a pain. I'd probably just paint them black.
