Two awesome dioramas found on scalemodels.ru:

1/35 - Old World Blues (at least that's what Google translates it to) - More pics here: LINK



-----------------------------

1/35 - The enemy is gone! (translation again courtesy of Google) - More pics here: LINK

I don't know. It's just an abandoned greenhouse, but... wow. Totally floored.







Looks like a set piece from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games.

Old World Blues is one of Fallout: New Vegas' expansion packs so its highly likely that you're correct Logan.
