I have a feeling many Zombies will die on this board...

(They did once the board thread is complete I will start the painting thread, then the gaming thread as four games have been played already ).

Still looking very nice. Good too see you are having such an organized approach. I normally just build something new for each game, but since we don't do the zombies games that often, it sometimes takes a while before the next buidlings are ready..

Well, in a bit I'll be leaving for a week of hiking in Austria, but if you keep on posting with the speed, at least I know I'll have something nice to read when/if I get back.

Enjoy Austria mate, my family were originally from Wienn, love the country.

Anyway on with the thread:

More shots of buildings One, two and three:





(Jersey barriers OOP scenery pieces from Antenocitis Workshop, Jed's stopped doing these now which is a shame but Ian over at Fenris Games does some lovely barriers, will feature these in my zombie painting thread later).

Enjoy

silly sod!   

Anyway realised a few things on board two still didn't look right....



Added:

Proper give way at the bottom, evenly centred stop line above the garage and sorted out the uneven central line on the main road.

Garage and apartment.





Went for a straight standard build but then wanted to try an interior so made the ground floor accessible:



Interior sheets are really nicely detailed, just a little bit of planning and they fit together very nicely.



Will have a go at a fire escape to the second floor at some stage just so there's access to it and the pendants can't have a dig!

It looks great, I've often looked at their stuff and thought long and hard about, the thing that put me off was that I heard it can be a little difficult to resize the interiors to fit the exteriors when they're based on foamboard - is it at all?

Plus I'd hate to live in that apartment, looks like there'd be cockroaches 5 feet long in there

No resizing really just measure the internal length of the wall section minus the thickness of the foamboard. Simples!

Petrol station to follow.

Do you just cut off the outer edges then? Because I've seen someone (can't remeber who mind) that resized all the internal walls to get them to fit it was the mannor building they'd done.
