Some people just need a house to fall on them.

Jim great work
Thanks so much Paul, took outdoor pics first time ever, just to see.
I like what I saw and will experiment much more. Sub zero temps sent me scurrying back indoors though. :fearful:

Thanks for looking in...Jim

Hi Jim
Better and better. Love the outdoor photos. That's one cute little helper you have there on snow clearing duty.

Thanks Jim, once collapsed roof and interior floors are slowly worked in the whole scenario will become much more
dramatic.

A slow go on this one as such a detailed dio deserves a real attempt at authenticity.
Having great fun with this one and being able to switch back and forth between scratching up a convincing
rendition of this shattered barn and wrecked PZ IV and building an awesome Tamiya version of an iconic American beast (Dragon Wagon) is the best of
both modelling worlds.

Oh... that's the youngest of my little Munchkins... temp at time of photo... -4f......Brrrrr! :cool:

UPDATE;

Getting tank settled in, some debris on top.
Working out in my mind how I want collapsed roof and floors to lay out and after much mental wrangling
and sleepless nights I've finally come to the conclusion that I haven't the foggiest idea :worried:

Excellent work. just love the little fellow.

Matter of innterest we produce all these things but they did in afact happen.

My wife in the WW11 lived in Morden (London near Wimbledon). Her Uncle & Aunt lived a few doors away.

Siren went in the night. All people retired to Anderson shelter in the garden. Lots of noise.

Uncle & Aunt cam out of shelter as the all clear siren blared away.

Their house had disappeared.
