15mm or HO Scale Modern Vending Machines.

I like scenery and nearly as much as the models I paint, these were listed as HO scale (1:87) but I think they work fine for 15mm (1:100) and ten in a pack.

A little rough but nice all the same and I've include a couple of scale pictures....




Here's a link to the vendor

Back on nights, no Ray though which is a blessing as he's still on annual leave.

    Those are really cool. I think I would apply a real thin wash to them just to dull them down a bit, but that's about it. Nice find!

    Reminds me of the scene in the movie Dr Strangelove where the guy shoots up the coke machine to get coins for the phone!

    Coke and Pepsi in the same palace, Gen. Fran?

    I find that the slightly oversized (in scale) nature of HO compared to 15mm helps make things look more substantial. Vehicles look like they can be hunkered down in, machines and the like look like they can be hidden behind, etc...

    This was a GREAT find, and looks fantastic!

    These amuse me. Can grabbing a refreshment be valuable to a game? I imagine it can be made to be that way but.. does it happen?

    Whoever painted those did a pretty good job. They're rather detailed considering how small they are. I think they fit the scale quite well too.

    I know someone had a bunch of vending machines up on Shapeways which you could buy. Pretty sure they were scaled for 15mm.

    these look great Fran :)

    And as to your question on cameras for miniatures, any of those three compact cameras i recommended would do, although i doubt that there'll be a significant difference with your current setup. :)

    Since you've gotten back into zombies I've been meaning to ask you if you have your own Mayhem City. If you do can you post pics of it?

    These look really good.... but you better paint a little guy reaching up into the vending machine to get the chips that didn't fall down all the way... you know keep it authentic!

    Keep the Coke ones, toss the others. In the future, everyone will have accepted the wholesome goodness that is Coca-Cola and have rejected all the poor imitations...and accept no substitutes.
