Hi Steven
Excellent attention to detail and very realistic.

A street scene does get more realistic when side walks are added more detail have been added to the front and rubble is in the process of being added
Still a lot more to do but I have added some pics of the end result with the two chaps who are taking a break from loading ammo

Really coming together..

Gets better every time.

Thanks gents much appreciated
Update: building is now fixed
And rubble is being added. right now I am concentrating on the front but have had time to do some work on the back as well
As.most modern Syrian buildings are constructed with a frame of rebarred concrete pillars and flooring but has cinderblocks in the wall sections I have included some whole plastic ones and some partially desroyed made from a plaster cast. technically speaking they are the wrong type but hey......
I am playing around with the placement of the ac unit and satellite dish as work with adding debris continue
Dish started as a being mounted on the building but as I was not happy with it I decided on having it tell a story of being blown of the mount - it is also a great way of filling empty space

Thanks alot for the kind words Gents :-)
The process of bringing wholesale destruction to the Rear of the Building is now almost complete and getting well underway at the front too- I am aiming for completing this part of the building process before the weekend , and start work on the reaming stages of construction on the T-72 during the Weekend.

Excellent work.

Thanks for the replies mates.
detailing around the building 99% complete: ammo boxes, electrical wiring parts of the shop interior the ubiquitous corrugated sheet metal etc. Well, one can always add more details but for now focus will turn to the other dominant feature of this little scene: the T-72...

Hi Steven
The detailing is superb. You have really modelled all the debris and broken fittings so well.

Hello Gents
thanks for the comments above

I am down with the Flu but before being bedridden I managed to do some work on the Turret adding wiring to both IR lights and mounting them - the co-axial has had its glas shot out - I have read that rebel snipers targeted these to limit the nighttime fighting of the tank so I thought it would be a nice feature - done with object glas used for microscopes.
Looots still to do right hand "rebar cage" is in the making and there still sigh a lot of PE brackets for the anti - Radiation coating as well a some Kontakt -1 blocks to do and the odd bits and bobs :-)
