Richard Bruna
Plainfield, Illinois
For a postapocalyptic family portrait, Richard combined figures from Alternity Miniatures with a 1/35 scale Volkswagen from Ryefield on a scratchbuilt base. He shaved and thinned the car’s plastic so it could be dented and bent. Richard painted with Vallejo acrylics, Ammo by Mig Jimenez enamels, and artist oils. The last chilling detail was a mushroom cloud reflected in the goggles of the gas masks.
