This Wastelander reminds me of a rodent, so I went with an obvious name, for now: Sewer Rat He's most comfortable below ground, and survived the collapse thanks to his knowledge of New York City's subterranean networks of tunnels gained from his years as a sanitation worker. His tools are...

Yea, that Hawaiian shirt is badass!

Well, they're formed up for some news from Bob:

Oh, and here is a partial group shot for you, Medd:

Thanks, Medd! I finally bought a 0 paint brush, which opens a whole new world of possibility, and I also have realized I need a smaller brush :) Here is the other guy I finished today: Here is my next Wastelander: Boondock Another Bucks Team member and a veteran of the 818th Recon battalion...

Here is my next Wastelander: Bucks Team Heavy Machinegunner, Lucky 33. Lucky was assigned to the elite Bucks team, but upon Bob's death decided to take off on his own as a mercenary. When the mold ruined his respiratory system, he found himself in the same situation as many Wastelanders. No one...

That's very cool, man! Much less Emo that he's been looking on the show lately.

Next up is another Wastelander... "A born leader, ApollyÅ￾n was a special operative with the 303rd Strikers. From saboteur to anti-insurgent, Apo doles out death and destruction, and continues to hold a hard line at the front of the Wastelanders. Armed with a pulse laser rifle...

Really great sculpting, paint, and custom work, Bronx. This dude is all kinds of awesome: If you're in the Bronx, I'm just up river from ya...

Thanks, gentlemen! Yea, Eddie you shared that tip with me back when I first signed up here. It is definitely easier, but I couldn't get it to lay right for me. KT, do it! Also, did you ever complete a tent? Were you attempting a flecktarn pattern?

Back to the tutorial… Time to get some paint on there. I use very watered down enamels, and frankly it doesn't matter what the quality is. Soak it, and let it dry… I use a hairdryer to move things along. Test fit… now it is starting to look good: What I do next is arrange the...

Now, with these Wastelander dudes I've been making, it just seemed appropriate for their aesthetic that they have cloaks or other covers to protect them from the environment they've been living in. Inspired by the work of Obi, and Kit Lau, I tried my hand at somewhat rigid soft goods. I'm...

Two more Survivors for you, before I get back to the Wastelanders. Phil and Manny, who survived with Carlos down in the cartel's missile silo. First is Phil. Phil was a chief enforcer for the cartel turned informant. He worked closely with Carlos whilst he was undercover, and their...

Hey, thanks for the compliments, Salty! I really appreciate it, and I'm glad you dig them. The VAMP is the first custom vehicle I made not to long ago. A lift and some mild mods, and the appropriate paint and weathering. Here is the original thread. I have another 50th VAMP and may make another...

Next up is the Wastelander everyone calls Sludgeworth. Thanks to his experience as an Armorer in the military, he's modified the Cobra blaster he affectionately named Stella. Old Stella turns her targets into a smoldering slop of human sludge.

Here is the next Wastelander, Lefty's right hand man, Bolt. Lefty and Bolt served together in the 2/319th Armored Division. The military trained him in BioMech maintenance and robotics, but his real talent is a MacGyver-esque ability to take a rusted pile of parts and build an effective war...

Thanks, Salty! Here are two of the Wastelanders, survivors who weren't lucky enough to escape the cities during the collapse. The Wastelanders had to ride out the storms and floods any way they could... First up is Lefty. After losing his arm in the Battle of St. Louis, he was discharged...

Next up are Pieterman and Dawi: Pieterman, a German paleontologist and Dawi, his South African companion. Dawi owes Pieterman a life debt after a run in with Somali pirates. Trapped in NYC when the bridges fell, they escaped up the Hudson and made camp north of Kingston.

Thanks, Tapper! Thanks, Medd! I dig the Renegades figures, and that Tunnel Rat is definitely a cool figure. I had two and am always lookig for good deals on more. They came with good accessories as well. I've used TR's legs on another dude from this team, and Mackie here is sporting a pair of...

So, going along with The Compound diorama, I have a rag-tag group of survivors in mind as the protagonists of the storyline. As I finish each dude, I'll post them up here with their bios and story tie-ins. They've survived the Weather Wars and the collapse of civilization, but can they survive...
