Zomtober! Week 1

 With the arrival of October, its now a month to focus on all things related to Zombie gaming! With that in mind, I've set aside several series of items to do for this Zomtober.

Starting out light, I've opted to just get a couple of 1/43 scale vehicles weathered for use in games. I likley snagged these at Walmart of a Dollar Plus store.


Here we have a couple of vehicles a VW Cabriolet & BMW SUV. So just some basic dirtying up on these. While I thought about adding graffiti on them, the odds are not everyone would have been interested in that when the world went sideways. You will see more of the graffiti on future posts.

 

 While first thoughts on a cabriolet not be a smart choice for survival, it does offer excellent firing arcs for passengers & the gas mileage is good! Just don't expect to be hauling any heavy loads.


The SUV on the other hand offers more storage for those 'must have' items.

Thanks to our Survivor & Zombies to provide scale.

    1. Thanks! I think this Zombtober will be mainly terrain/vehs etc for me, but we shall see how it goes. Trying to get more scatter & stuff done for Last Days/ATZ/Apocalyptic games in general.

  2. Great looking weathering on the vehciles, most of mine still look like toys!
    On purely asthetic terms I find enclosed vehicles better to imagine having occupants than open-topped ones!

    1. Thanks Zabadak, many of these vehicles will also be abandoned ones, which may or may not still have some useful items or a hidden zombie. At some point I think I will need to add some defences to a couple which will be the ones for players to use as their functional transport.

  3. I guess the car-washes aren't operating any more after the apocalypse occurs :-) !

    1. If they were, they would likely have been turned into bath houses. Water would certainly be a commodity once pressure in the lines stopped.
