    Apologies Jim , I missed a lot of this .
    Great work overall, I esp like the work on the doors both in casting and then the paint work .
    Steaming the door frame WOW, that in its self is worthy of the dogs . I've done laminated bending in 1/1 but never steaming .
    Most impressive , you must be very pleased.

      Thanks John
      One of the nicest things about being part of the forum family is how you're encouraged to try something new. Your foamboard buildings were the push I needed to have a go.
      Thanks for your kind post.
      Jim

        Fun going into uncharted territory isn’t it Jim. After all, doing things outside of your comfort zone is the only real way to improve your skill set…..otherwise you are just practicing what you already know…

          I'm playing ketchup too Jim. What a wonderful setting you've created from scratch. For a first time, this is just fantastic. The woodwork, the colors, everything, right down to the kitty, is great. It's a full dio all by itself!!!....

          Enjoy your vacation and I can't wait to see what comes next when get back.

          Prost

            Hi all
            Completed at last. Thanks for all your support. Foam buildings were a first and a steep learning curve but I've learned a lot and will definitely be doing more of the same.

              Take a bow mate that is a cracking scene all round.
