World War Z Diorama - Part 2

I just realized that in my haste to post photos of my World War Z diorama months ago, I only posted one photo. My apologies for being hasty. Anyway, here are more pictures of the Battle of Yonkers. The 1:18 scale military vehicles and figures come from Target's Bravo Team, Walmart's Motorworks, and Blue Box International (BBI). The zombies are a custom painted (grey skin, splashes of blood) assortment of 1:18 scale figures (A-Team. Men In Black III, Bo Duke from the Mego Dukes of Hazard, a few star wars, and more Bravo Team military figures.

World War Z - Battle of Yonkers

For those of you who are fans of the Zombie genre and haven't read Max Brooks' World War Z, you are missing out. A fantastic book dealing with the zombie apocolypse on a global level. One key part is the Battle of Yonkers, the first organized military defense in the US.

It of course, ends disastrously. In this diorama, I stacked up the military vehicles side by side, as told in the book. Then had the beginning of the 10 million zombie trail coming up against the troops. Take a close look at some of the zombies, and you'll see some familiar figures. So hard to get a consistent scale these days for a large diorama.
