The Police Cars Weather the Zombie Storm

Some time back I purchased several Police Vehicles for use in Post Apocalyptic gaming. So while working on the next 5 Zombicide Walkers, I started weathering some of them for next months Campaign game, which is where vehicles are introduced.

So this is how they looked when bought, nice & shiny!

Of course with an Apocalypse going on there's no time to be worrying about washing them. So I started by taking a green Brilla pad & lightly scouring the shiny paint to tone it down. I didn't want to rub the paint off however.

In all I purchased 3 of this version. The Shiny one still needs to get weathered. I wanted to maintain a standard cruiser for the City's Police force. I liked this version for that purpose.

I recently purchased a bunch more graffiti decals, smaller ones rather than the huge ones I have for other purposes. So after adding a couple to one of the cruisers & the Sheriff's vehicle below, I began applying dirt, then mud. I then masked the windows  & headlights with masking tape & applied a dull coat overspray.

The Sheriff's vehicle received a bit more graffiti & a hand painted sign. The windows were given cracks. I see the decals need a bit more work as the edges can be seen

Unfortunately not all the vehicles have doors that open & close. Would have been nice to have a hood open, etc, but for what I paid for these at Walmart I won't complain.

As alluded to at the beginning, I have the next 5 Zombies drying from the Army Painter Dip & should have those posted tomorrow evening. Then I will likely get the Luke, Han Solo & Chewbacca finished for my friend. I also picked up the new Star Wars expansions so will likely crack them open to start painting as well.

Thanks for reading.
