Excellent diorama in progress Dave. I wouldn't want to tangle with the door gunners. Looking forward to completion.

No they came as part of an Italeri Battle set and are laser cut mdf.
They are produced by Sarissa Precision in a variety of scales mainly for wargamers, the same company also do Pegasus bridge and other well known battle field scenarios.
They fit together well.
I have enhanced the roof and some other parts.

I now need some foliage, maybe the dreaded elephant grass and some Vietcong to populate the diorama.
It seems to be getting a bit crowded, but I suppose selective compression does that.

Tunnel rats will be here - just for Martin, no Zombies though it may be Legend! (will he get the reference!)

Could be "The legend of the 7 golden vampires" - a kung fu/vampire  movie that made me laugh out loud

The diorama is going to be full.

I am Legend - Zombies, Will Smith movie!

Now adding some grass, several more layers are required yet.
The masking tape stops the road/track/path getting grassed!

Looking GREAT - when do you do the other 17 sections 
I had forgoten all about the Will Smith film - sad ending for him but good for the other peole that had survived the outbreak. Loved the animals and plants taking over the city - got me thinking about a model - NO MUST finish ALL the ones under construction first, but maybe soon, now who shall I model the mad out of control zombie on

Very nice indeed Dave. Displaying tomorrow?

Very nice indeed Dave. Displaying tomorrow?

No Castle and trebuchet tomorrow!

Wet days do wonders for modelling progress.
Some foliage and figures added, more to go, yes, figures and foliage!

[chriswil42]

Very nice indeed. It'll be fantastic when complete.

Adding some smaller details, packs, crates, barrels, plates and so on, the question is when to stop!
Oh, that's an attempt to build a sampan from paper.
