Ha, I have that same plasticville pond in a raw/broken state. Good to know it can be rescued.  lol

Yeah, I just wish I had only put two drops of green into the mix instead of four, because it is darker than I wanted.  There are actually snakes in the bottom, but you cannot see them, even with the light almost against the resin.  Still, I can totally see survivors making a park pond into a tarberry bog.  The leaves are actually findings my wife had in her jewelry making stuff she can no longer do due to her hands having been affected by a stroke, so I painted them green, and plan on using them up.  And tiny red beads make good berries.

Shame about the snakes, the result is still pretty great!

I can't read "snakes in a pond" without hearing Samuel Jackson's voice lol

Cool terrain piece. Definitely a nice change of pace from the normal post apoc stuff.

I like to add pieces that reflect the attempts to keep going - like the Ghoul-run Tarberry bog in a swimming pool from Fallout 4, or the settlement on an overpass for protection in Fallout 3.

And, hey, since I did a post-apoc Scooby Gang for the LPL this last time, I realized I wasn't entirely happy with an old converted ambulance as a Mystery Machine, and since there was one available from Armorcast...



The one in the background gets replaced with this one...

I plan to start this weekend - I am laying out the plans for it, as this will require some work instead of just winging it like my usual.

And here is the build for the chainsaw plot point.  Well, more of a small building.

This became one of my infamous one-day builds.  Once I get started, I won't put it down until it is out of my system.

That will be a great plot point.  A perfect implementation of  the commercial!
