        Good morning fellow modellers! Im back from vacation! There is no time to waste so im back in business. While i was away the postman dropped of some kits for the project. So the next step is the construction of the wall for the military base and the gate or entrance ,For this i will use miniart village workshop because it will match the house I have constructed before. I will need at least 6 kit to create a length of 175cm . For the gate or entrance i will use From MTH a double tunnel portal , because I couldn’t find anything better which would fit the size i need ! So here are they[ATTACH]321724[/ATTACH][ATTACH]321725[/ATTACH]

          However the tunnel portal was a little bit too tall so I need it to adjust and cut the legs down [ATTACH]321730[/ATTACH]

            Also the other side of the tunnel was hollow! Luckily the kit comes with 2 pieces. So again need it some adjustments! I cut down the outer edges so i left with a flat panel which will be attached to the the back of the tunnel!

              From the miniart wall i will only use the wall section without roof and like I said i will need 6 kit 3 on either side of the entrance! Sofar i only bought 3 kits . The construction is done next step is to fill up the gaps and attach them together and after it’s ready for painting ! [ATTACH]321735[/ATTACH]

                Welcome back Danny.
                Nothing like going for it in a big way ! Like the modification of the bridge front. Surprised you've not taken up casting resin whilst on holilday.:smiling: with that number to do .
                Just how big is this going to be ?
                John.
