Weekly Wrap Up: Plymouth and a Finished Fort!

By Upatdawn @lisakeva

Jamestown Fort


"Hey, isn't that the Powhatan Indian tribe and Jamestown settlers?"
" Why yes, it is!"
"Isn't this Wrap Up supposed to be about the Pilgrims?"
" Why yes, it is!"

Jamestown Fort


Our crew finished their Jamestown fort and wanted to put it on display first!
Working diligently, the fort and surrounding area was painted.  Inner buildings built, changed, rebuilt and glued down.  Trees and forest constructed and figures put in their places.
