Board of The Living Lead Comp Entry part 2

In my haste to get the piece finished I took photos of it being painted without checking them and basically a lot of them where no good. Anyhow here is the finished piece. With figures added. Things like the barrels and bin bags etc are removable so I can re use them.

    I wish I had a "Tree Fort" like that when I was a kid.

    Looks good Simon and very unusual topic for a zombie copetition. Hats off to you fella!

      And me, Made plenty of shelters on the ground and stuff never could find the right spot for a tree fort to be built.

      Its a really good series just waiting for the final book to be released to see what the conclusion is.

    Great work, the corrugated iron is really effective, and I love the rope to get to the top. I mean zombies could climb ladders but rope, no way.
