After I get the crane done I’m almost done with it I posted some new pics on it the other night. I’ll probably start it the itch is driving me crazy.
The crane is coming on well I look forward to seeing it finished.

So excellent Scottie! I understand the feeling. Maybe some windblown trash & leaves caught in corners/base of structures. PaulE

Scottie,
Have just caught up on your build - amazing work, well done.
As I read through the house build and looked at the latest pics, I agree with PaulE, you need leaves and dust in the gutter, plus a couple in the drain.
I do not know about the leaves, but I am blown away.....
Mike.

Michael,
Thanks fella, glad you like it. I agree it just needs a bit of debris.

having followed the advice I have added some debris and blown leaves. I have also added a telegraph pole covered in Ivy and some north facing moss. This is now done. I have been working on the figures, and I have come to the conclusion that I am really jealous of figure painters lol.

Scottie,
Mucho, mucho better.
Can I reccomend a book to you for your figure painting. 'Painting Miniatures' by Danilo Cartacci. Got the book a couple of months ago to help me out with future figures.
Cheers
Mike.

Sorry, I got bored while working on my figures and kept looking at the base thinking what does it need. Then I thought some signposts and a sign for the door. So this is what I came up with. The figures are in hand but I cant say I am happy with them but in my defence the moulding is not that good and there were a lot of seam lines and flash especially on the equipment.
