Here's my latest L4D project- a Left 4 Dead, Ceda prepped, safe house. The Dio features scratch built, working, doors and various graffiti and items seen in the game.
The outside brickwork was done with joint compound. And as an added touch I used an Umbrella Corp advertisement for the billboard. (Thought it would be neat to tie the L4D and Resident Evil worlds together.)

Pics are with and without flash . . .

And a big thanks to DanOfTheDead for helping me find the graffiti blurbs.

This also completes my L4D toy types (I've now done figures, a vehicle, and now a play set. Shame on toy companies for not beating me to it.)

Also, here's the rest of my L4D customs . . .

Rockage, to the stratosphere. Again, you knocked that out of the park.

Since you didn't do the small room with the graphitti that says "You can't change them back." Would you mind if I take a crack at that one?

You are the master. Awesome. :-D

Eric,
I'd love to see you make one!
Also, I got a critique on another board to clutter up the room a bit more. And I"m going to try that out.
If anyone out there has a spare bunk bed, like the ones I used, it would be great to get a third. Just PM me.

Great job pulling together a playset for an NJC. I like how you used the inside and outside space.

This came out so awesome. I think the doors are my favorite part, but there's so much awesome stuff going on here!

When do we get to see some actions shots with your L4F customs running around it? :D

A lot of times with a playset it's the detail of the items that get put in it that make it cool. That's true here, but it's the detail and paint work, inside and out, of the "building" itself which truly floors me.

This one also got my vote, and it was a real treat to see in the NJC. I love this. Can't wait to move and start to learn a whole new area of customizing, inspired by you, Cap and Chief.

Dexter would not approve of the arterial sprays...
:D

Kidding, looks spot on from what I remember of the game.
