Today I have another 3d Print – this time it’s a replacement for the simple “prison tower” tile from the standalone Prison Outbreak expansion.

As with the Black Plague Trapdoors from the other day, this one was a free STL that I found online – this time on Cults3D.

Painting was pretty straightforward. I wanted the whole thing to be an overall dull grey, no red brick or tiles, no warm wood for the rails – so I got various shades of grey and dull metal for the various components of the building, but then it seemed too dull, so the OH&S department came to the rescue with some safety yellow for the ladder, the guardrails, the door frame and the “stand clear” area on the platform floor – which then got dirtied up and chipped and worn.

Now the life-or-death struggle to survive against the undead horde can be done in a manner that’s properly OH&S compliant, as demonstrated here by Berkeley and friends wildly swinging their melee weapons while shotguns blast overhead.

It also turns out that this tower fits the “close enough” scale to be used in Marvel Crisis Protocol, which means that aside from Zombicide it’s got a use case for many modern game settings. It would probably work for WWII reasonably well with a different paintjob with more wood and less OH&S yellow!

Either way, I have another entry for Dave Stone’s Apocalypse Me painting challenge running throughout October!
