        Pics look good from here Sue.......nice bit of progress as well. No sweat on the boo boo as like you said, it will all be covered up. Try checking on line for model railroad scenery materials.......not sure what scale your tower is but you should be able to find something suitable that will work for you. :thumb2:

              Hi Rick. yes thank you for ideas , i had not thought or realized about the size scale of the tower to the scenery items i would love to add to this build to make it more realistic . I have looked ordered some items from miniature dolls house website only to find they are to big , :smiling5:. never mind . I will have a look on model railroad scenery and see what they have .
              Opps i did make a further another mistake on building no4 in new pics but i have took the building apart and built it up again so mistake is not more. Now to use the bricks the fun bit . ...... sue

                  I have not done much to tower build lately . In the pictures no4 building i had to dismantle and rebuild as i had built it wrong as you can see the angle of the building in the picture . The no4 building has not been glued done yet as a set of steps have to be built and put in before building no4 can go in and be glued down. :thumb2::upside::hugging-face:........sue

                    Hello Sue looks very nice an regards the scales for bits to suit your tower well now you are thinking like a proffecinal moddeler an giving it a bit of thought as that helps the finished model no end an does it say what the scale is on the box ?
                    hope you are well

                      Hi Sue
                      You're off to a great start. All the card building framework looks neat and tidy.

                          Hi Chris. The box doesn't say what scale it is, been looking online I carnt find any info to say what scale it is. I guess I will have to contact the makers aedes-ars and ask them. I will ring you tomorrow Chris I've got builder/"tradesmen in at the moment...... Sue xx

                                Hi Chris. Let's just say he's a trademan that I won't be using again. As for fencing I will do myself. I'm getting fed up with fixing stuff in the house and paying out.
                                Tha tower I'm so looking forward to putting the bricks on the buildings,
                                I think I will cut to shape a lot of bricks before I start building the walls. Thank you Chris and jen. X
