      Morning Monica
      2 C here in the North of the UK, 43 C seem rather warm!

      Good start on the base and rubble

      Are the heads fixed to the bodies yet?

      The figure on the right seems to have a long neck?

      Is it the camera angle or still time to adjust?

      Looking forward to the base developing, though I guess it will have to be early and late to paint as it will dry too quickly?

      Regards

      Steve H

          Hi Monica, sorry am late joining the crowd. Have always wondered if anyone would do that iconic scene of the flag raising on the Reischstag. You're doing a good job of it. :thumb2:

          Was confused why Scotland was having a heatwave until I noticed you're now reciding down under in Aussieland. Will be sharing the heat soon when I'm with my Sis for 3 weeks in Sydney...she says she is already melting.

          Good of Simon to forward the flag image for you. Will you be painting it or making a print? The base already looks good with the painting of the debris. Glad you're enjoying this.

          Cheers,
          Richard
          very nice to have you along as well,Richard ,a bit slow going,but with the,move to get things,up and running ,need to
          be content,with the setup,

          oh,Steve,its a very hot dry heat we get,so I just stay inside,and hind,give me cold or colder and I,m happy,
          glad that your liking the base so far,still more to go,
          no,just tacked on for base coats,and fit,yes your right its a bit to long,soon to be piked for painting,
          will adjust it to suit,
          I tend to get more done,in the morning in 2 to 3 hrs,than the rest of the day,without can you do this or that,
          drop off,pickup,I need to go hear and there,never ending,and then the cats ,take over as well,never have the
          hart to move them,
          in that heat the paint drys on the brush,or on the plate before you get to use it,better today 19c,very big drop from
          43 or 46 it got too,

                    No worry sport, It will all come out in the wash. I have every confidence in you after going back in the archives and reviewing some of your previous builds.

                      Monica.
                      Love the colour of the structure, don't think you could improve. Those greys are spot on, exposed to the elements stone soon loses the original colour.
                      Going to look great .

                          You are doing fine Monica. Like as mentioned everything will come together once the wash has kicked in.

                          Cheers,
