Construction Zone & Some more Scatter

It turned out to be another great day to wander about Giant Tiger while waiting for my wife to do her shopping. Always on the lookout for things I can use for Last Days or Walking Dead style games, I stumbled upon these


 There are a total of 4 vehicles (I didn't see the dump truck at this location), so snagged those I saw. Also nearby were a couple of transports. There were 2 styles available. One had a boat & the other this....a helicopter! OK so thats a bonus right there, nevermind the transport.

 

Here they are posed with some survivors to show scale.

 




I also had a shortened paint session today as I was out picking up some items, however I was able to finish off these scatter terrain pieces thanks to Contrast Paints, which do a great job for anything wood or fur.

 


I believe these are all from Wyrd's line & got them from another gamer who was selling off some stuff.

 


Now I have some more functional, many gendre terrain bits.

Not sure what's next on the table, as Bloodborne is always catching my eye & I've been seeing some great painting of the miniatures on the facebook page. There is also my need to think about & get painted some stuff for Stargrave! Guess you will need to wait to see. 

Thanks for visiting!

    I love finding vehicles and I'm very jealous that I've never come across a steamroller !
    I may have to look into contrast paints as the effects you're getting is great.

      Thanks Zabadak, I've found its always worth a stroll through the toy section, as you never know what you will find. Here was one of the Youtube videos I watched about them https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oi7m90V-0cI

      Thanks Ivor, I am sure they will. Now I need to see if I can find an zombie dead pile that will fit in the bucket of the loader

    Nice find! Will add some very fun pieces to create a cool construction site.... OF THE DEAD!!!

    I've been umming and ahh'ing over picking up a toy school bus for my own zeds project. But I have yet to find the opportunity to play, so... yeah, one for the future.

    Like those crates'n'stuff too - those contrast paints can give really nice results.

      Thanks Dai! I am always keeping my eyes open in various stores Toy aisles while my wife is doing her shopping...I tend to wander about. Looking forward to when the townwide garage sales & swap meets can once again occur after this pandemic to find even more!
