More Mantic Terrain Crate stuff originally sourced from Mars Attacks again today – These were painted before the picket fences shown in yesterday’s post – these being painted in January and February – as with those fences, these are now available from Mantic’s various “Cityscape” sets from their modern/post-apocalyptic range.
I started cleaning these up in late 2024 with the idea to get them painted over the Christmas break into 2025, which is exactly what happened. As we’ve moved further into our campaign playing through all of of Zombicide 1st edition, including all expansions, all addons and all DLC, we got to the point of barricades a little while ago, but I only have the pair that came with one of the Kickstarters.
So since I had these, it was time to get some of them done. They’ve come up decently well in the end. I varied the colours of the various elements so they hopefully don’t immediately read as a pile of duplicated pieces. I do have a bunch more of these, but before I go near those, I’ve got a few other sculpts to paint and then mix in! In the meantime, these 14 pieces also qualify for Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 24-25.



Nicely done! 🙂 They look good en masse but even the individual pieces look good in their own right!

Thank you John. I had to stop myself from painting way too many individual dings and dents onto the boxes. They’re the background pieces, after all.

Great looking barricades mate, and the use of different colours helps blend away their duplicity.

Not to sound like a broken record but these are yet another highly versatile type of terrain to have in your collection. I like the variety of colors and hopefully that kept them from being tedious to work on. These are a fantastic addition for Zombicide as well! That’s a great in-game shot, in my opinion!

Thanks mate – they’ll be that much better once I get a bunch each of the other sculpts painted, so they’ll all blend together in a much more natural way.
