Custom Dreadnok Playset

i made sweet outpost for my dreads. i dont know how to post pics on my threads so youll have to go to my profile and look at my pics. i was very happy with it upon completion. its made from popcicle stix, rocks, and moss. makes a great hideout on swamp dios.
so if you got time, check it out let me know what you think

nice man!! you should put it in your sig like i did man, cus this thread will get buried if no one posts in it, that's why i posted in it so it goes back to the top for ya! cheers

thanx again man.

Very cool! I dig it.
I really like that rock work.
Nice work!

Finish it up with a really cool swamp base and you have a winner.

Looks sweet, dude!

Awesome job.

That is freaking sweet!!!

Now we know where Footloose and Spirit got their Stash from. HAH.. Looks awesome my friend!

Thanx for the kind words everyone. I do have plans for a swamp base on the thing, might be awhile before i complete it. Gotta either find some fake trees, or i think of a way to craft them. Anyone got any ideals.

here, not as cheap in price as popcicle sticks, but you can do a lot more an get really creative wit' this stuff man.. Building Supplies Wood

an here you go on your question Miniature Trees, model trees, architectural model tree and model railroad scenery.

youre right those wood supplies are not cheap. i cant afford that stuff right now, but thanx for the heads up. if anything id get some of those trees. i have a hobby shop not to far from my place ill have to go check it out to see if they have the trees there.
to everybody thank you for the kind words. it was greatly appriciated

how did you make the rocks?

i bought them at the dollar store, and super glued them on. the whole thing was really easy to make just time consuming

just started working on an out post for my joes tonight. the sniper tower is just about complete the whole thing should be done in about a week. woohoo

Sweet idea. I may have to take it. I've been wanting to make a diorama/playset similar to this.

Man if shanty was only 1 story and not 2 it looks like Jason's Shack almost in Friday the 13th movie

great set, nice use of moss. keep it up

maybe i should make a custom jason vorhees

Nice job! I like it, it's inspiring! If I had space around here, I'd give it a try.

That turned out really great. Very creative. I love the stone on it.

to everybody thanx again for the kind words. as soon as i finish my next project (joe outpost) i will post some pics on here. should be done in about a week

That's awesome. Love the scene set up as well.

Looks great, the moss and rocks look great, really realistic looking. The Dreads look right at home.

I don't know, I think it's missing something... It needs a table and chairs, and some chocolate doughnut and grape soda!

Seriously though, that is very cool, man!

there is a table in there, and a ladder, as for the doughnuts i just couldnt get the popcicle stix to be right.

heres a pick of a fake stump i got in my dio and some cheap aqaurium plants the stump isnt cheap but looks good
btw awsome job might have to pick upsome craft sticks myself

ill check out an aquarium store for a stump. if its in my price range ill pick one up.

Quite the cool dio! Nice job!

That is sweet! Really awesome work! That is exactly what I'd picture a Dreadnok post to look like.

Yes! Congratulations!

Did Copperhead go through a cloning machine?

Very nice... makes me want to finish mine. Someday...

great work esp with the rocks and the paint on the wood.

very well done

Looks great man and the pics are super clear which is nice.

That is really cool! Very creative.

Always like to see what goes on in the swamp.
This is very cool and I bet it was a lot of fun to make.

was tons of fun to make. was cheap and easy to make too. once again thanks to evryone for the kind words

very cool, you put alot of detail into this, i really dig it. great work.

you should check out a product thats called ez water, its made by some model railroad landscape company.
heres a pic of how it turnes out when i used it the first time.....though i later learned that by painting the river/swamp/sea bed before pouring the e water you can change the color of the water+ i used to little of it.
also: those are fake aquarium plants.

heres a taste:

Thats very cool and creative... good job!

ill have to check out some of that ez water that would look great on my swamp dio, think im going to pic up some those aquarium plants this weekend and throw some paint on them so theyre not so bright. thanx for the pointers.

sweeeeet!...i really like all the different materials...looks great man

killler. i love it and works great for them.

Very cool, i'm gonna have to start eating a lot of popsicles if I wanna take on a project like this.

just go buy a box of stix at walmart for $3. you get 1000 theyre in the craft section
