          Well Burger me!
          That is outstanding Ron, everything just works to pull it together; even that wonderful blue sky. I would bet it would also look great with a dawn/dusk lighting, a bit of smoke from Mrs. Ron's pipe and bobs your mothers brother.
          Just one question: Just how many frozen pizza's do you eat!?! lol

            Cheers boys!

            Ian - 5*! Great stuff. Thank you....:thumb2:

            Scottie - Thanks to you too - Pull another pint for me!

            IanM - Good idea, but I doubt we'll see the sun for some time.......We've run out of wacky backy, so she's off the weed at the minute!:upside:
            Re- the Pizzas. The yellowerer buildings in the rear are nicked from my IDF M60 - A1 'Blazer Diorama, and are made from Pizza bases. The latest lighter coloured buildings are made from foam board. Simply because my wife bought me a whole pack of the b****y things for my birthday, so I gotta use them now.....

            Thanks again for all your excellent posts.

            Ron

                  Outstanding finish. You must be very pleased with the final look especially with the summer sun as well

                    Thanks for that Steve. I'm glad you like the model.
                    I must confess to being 'Well Chuffed' with the final result.

                    Cheers.
