Apocalyptic and Post Apocalyptic movies

I have been watching a lot of Non zombie Apocalyptic and Post Apocalyptic movies over the last few months, I have a large DVD and Blu-ray collection which I have been adding to as I find new titles, I think the 1970s and the1980s were the heyday of such movies, here are some posters of what I think are the best cheesy movies in the genre.

TV Crew With Body Armour

 Here's my first painted 20mm metal minis, they are from MJ figures news crew set, they are all dressed in body armour and the sound boom guy has a helmet, all are unarmed, their are 2 more minis in the set, a minder and a photographer, the full 5 mini set cost a mere £2.50

Here's a comparison shot with a Caesar & a Pegasus 1/72 plastic

Pick Ups

I picked up two new cars today a  70 Chevelle SS Wagon and a 81 De lorean DMC-12, I was looking for De Lorean for sometime, I love the whole history surrounding the car, both cost 1 Euro 49 Cent each in Deals.

I love this film

re-purposed Mack Truck

I seem to be spending a lot of time looking in thrift store of late, I picked up this 7up truck a few days back for 20 Cent, It is very hard to find large vehicles like buses and Mack trucks for 20mm, so this was a lucky find.

Pick Up Truck

Here,s another battered vehicle  I picked up at a church faith for 15 Cent, I gave a black and silver paint job.

Caesar Miniatures Zeds Update

I noticed that Caesar have upcoming Police Men and Civilian sets coming out soon.

I sent them an E mail asking about Modern Zombie sets this is the reply.

Dear Mr.  Wayne:

         Yes, we have produced this product. Wait for a while you will see the products soon.

            Best Regards, Peter (Caesar Miniatures)

So it looks like their will be some 1/72 plastic Modern Zeds coming out this or next year. This is great news as Caesar are the best producers of 20mm plastic minis

 

First 20mm Zeds

Here's a few conversions I did using minis I had left over from the sets I picked up for my Irish Civil War game, the Nun is straight from the box, the other 3 have had some cuts. I have to say I enjoy painting 20mm over 28mm
