Still more Kubelwagen updates!

Final W.I.P. pics of German Zombie Kubelwagen #1...I have one final figure to add and then I'll take some decent digital pics...all this is part of my Plan 9: Resurrection diorama...28mm (1:56) scale...there will be some other German figures in the final display, but at least this part is nearly done!

Plan 9 update

Update on zombie German soldiers...just some crappy cell phone W.I.P. pics...lots of detail and gore to add...but the frozen ginger German represents my very first attempt at a camoflauge uniform...28mm scale...for the kubelwagen portion of my Plan 9 diorama...

Sister Ellen-Zombie Nun!

Sorry for the multiple crappy pictures...my cheapy camera doesn't like bright white at all, so I had to take multiple pics under multiple lighting situations to get all the different elements photographed...having said all that, let me introduce you to Sister Ellen!
Sister Ellen is a zombie nun character in my upcoming diorama "Plan 9: Resurrection". I made her ruler myself, the figure came from Westwind Productions, and she's 28mm. She used to be a teacher in a Catholic school...and carries a weaponized ruler to aid in her spree! She used to crack knuckles and take names, now she cracks skulls and eats BRAINS!!!

ZOMBIES!!!

My fourth miniature...I went for a very muted color scheme on this guy..he came in a 5 pack of similar zombies that resemble the tar-man zombies from "Return Of The Living Dead" so I'm really trying to reign it in with the color...he's still not done...I MIGHT brighten him up just the slightest touch with a bit more dry brushing...and I'm going to add a bit of glossy gore to him...28mm...from Reaper Miniatures

Castel Mare diorama update-

I thought I'd show some progress I made on the medieval blacksmith brazier I'm scratch-building for the dungeon portion of the Castel Mare diorama I'm making...I started out with a 3 inch plastic hydroponic grow basket, as shown in Fig. 1. I cut the top of of it, and cut the exposed tines into points (as shown in Fig. 2-3)...they aren't perfect, but they won't have to be...Fig. 4 shows the bling I used for rivets...they are really for fingernails, but they are the size I want and I have some, so that's what I used...LOL. Fig. 5, 6, and 7 shows how I glued them around the basket...very sloppy glue job because the "rivets" are tiny and I ran out of glue gel, and you'll notice the stones don't match...none of this will matter on the finished piece. I also coated the whole thing with clear gesso. Fig 8 and 9 show what everything looked like after the iron paint was applied, and Fig, 10, 11, and 12 show how it looks after the rust effects are applied....I may still dry brush some of the high spots with a bit of orange...but for the most part I'm pretty happy with how it's looking...now on to the innards of the thing...and the stone pedestal I'm making for it to sit on!

Castel Mare Diorama Update

Some Castel Mare updates...tower bling and scratch built stairs! Did the patina and metallic effects on the bling myself...they are actually white resin...the stairs are made of Sculpey and heavily textured and also have several layers of effects and transparent paints.
