Hi Scottie
Figures are great and do add a lot to the dio. Love the idea of a sub-station, not seen that before.

Paul liking the look , have you any experience with comparing this material to the foam board that I use please ?
I've seen this sold in smallish sizes, where as the Kappa Line board comes in quite large sheets like 5 mm 500 X 700 mm @ £5 .15 up to 1000x 1400 @ approx £21.

Hi Scottie, been late catching up and haven't been disappointed, so much to see and the resin stowage equipment, decaling and painting sure makes the vehicle look lived in. The figures are not bad too...no need for apologies. I enjoy your builds as new improvements and detail keep coming at every turn. The electrical substation is something that's not seen before and will be interesting in your composition.

Cheers,
Richard

Mr. Jones thinks he's behind......I fell off the planet! Sorry for lagging behind on this Scottie. Looks like all the adjectives have been used up so I will just say that I concur with what's already been said and let it go at that. Rick H. :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2: :thumb2:

Hi scottie

I have just caught up whilst I'm in isolation from my little trip abroad.
It looks amazing and I think Simon would have loved it.

John, Not really mate I like the blue foam, I did try the board you use but didn't like it but that is probably because I forgot to take the skin off. Can't remember what I payed for my last lot, but it lasts quite well but there again my buildings are not on the grand scale of your builds.

Thank you Richard I am having fun trying out new techniques. Some more successful than others.

Rick, no worries mate it is very difficult to keep up with the very fine builds and thank you.

Marty, to kind mate I hope he would be happy with it. What ever happened to the chinook you were building or did I miss the end of it?

The roof has been made. First a square pyramid was constructed from stiff card, Tiles were punched from thin card using a tile punch. The corners were then finished using plastic tiles. All topped of with a ball bearing. Using various browns the tiles were picked out then all gloss coated ready for further work.

The building itself had the stonework around the base marked in with a pen. These were then painted in various tones. the upper part was pre shaded then sprayed with off white and again gloss coated.

A door and window were made from evergreen sheet. With the door handle made from copper wire and pewter sheet.
