Urban Camping Scene [UDK]

Hi again. I'm almost in the clear to start a new portfolio piece and thought I'd get started early and post an image of the scene I've decided to make.
It's set to be a dawn of the dead style post apocalyptic urban camping scene that's meant to show 'panic' as a main focus.

There will be several tents in the section I've highlighted in green, as well as coal lit fires and knocked over deck chairs etc.

I need more eyes in composition as I want to build a real, focal point, being the tents.

Any suggestions? Any ways I can make this EPIC!!!!!!

Cheers folks

first off i'd say make the green portion wider... and push the roof to the left of it further left.. that way it would be far more visible and a slightly better focal point imo.... also because the image has a very flat tone range (lots of whites and greys) i'd say make the scene a night/dusk scene and make the coal fires the main source of illumination making the whole camp area even more of a focal point.... just my two cents so far

Thanks mate! This is good stuff.

Ill make it night/dusk lighting for sure.
I've been toying around with adding height to the buildings in the middle too and using some pipes in the left foreground to direct the eye.
Width to the middle area is also something ill try.

Cheers
