SWS and Ruins

German Hetzer light tank destroyer and E25 heavy tank destroyer cover the intersection with the support of infantry.
The building in the back with the green plants is Stately Wayne Manor from Funko Pop Town.  I don't think it is based on any specific Batman series but several of them from the animated versions look like this building.  I think it also makes a good government building from the WWII era.
SWS halftrack from Roco and the E25 from Filament Fighters, 3D printed model.
The SWS has been detailed by adding a machine gun to the front of the cargo compartment and a Jerry can to the rear side.  It is a very old model but with a good paint job and a little extra detail I think it holds up well for being 50 years old.
I have a wire mesh table that is oval shape, so I took a couple 2x4s and two sheets of chip board and bolted them all together so my table is about 4x8 feet outdoors on my gravel patio.  It looks towards the property boundary which is marked by a barbed wire fence and treeline.  I spray paint outdoors on this tabletop and make no effort to protect the top from overspray.  It makes for a varied table color and with the irregular surface of the chip board works well for urban ruins.  I have no idea what the other buildings are, they have been in my collection for over 20 years and I source building from wherever I can find them.
