Here is my latest completed project, it depicts 3 survivors of Nuclear war re-emerging from underground somewhere! The three figures I have used are all in 54mm scale, two are resin figures from Evolution Miniature, "Stalker 1" Postapocalyptic. Code number EM-35121, this is the bearded guy."Stalker 2" Postapocalyptic. Code number EM-35120, this is the guy in the brown coat. The third fellow climbing out of the hatchway is an amalgamation of an old Airfix French Foreign Legionaires body and an old Alpine head.
The wall is the Cinder Block Type A in 1/35th scale from Machine 1 Models. The gate is made from cereal packet cardboard and normal white stationary card; the hinges are from a 30 year old Verlinden photo etch set.
To make the large space behind the Cinder Wall more interesting I made 2 lengths of Barbed Wire (As per the Stan Catchpol tips from the Military Modelling magazine). On this wire I placed a a few pieces of Airbrushed Cling Film to represent the detritus that wire attracts. I added some pieces of scrap wood laying around to add some interest to this area of the model.
In my normal manner I have used acrylic paint throughout from Andrea, Vallejo, and Scale 75.
I enjoyed this model, the Evolution Miniatures figures are first class, very little flash, a very good fit of the parts and a good range to choose from.
Thanks for popping by I hope you enjoy viewing these
