Cheers Rick , getting to that point where I just want it finished. Anyone else get that feeling ?

I get that every time I build anything. Funny thing is, it goes away as I get to the finish…..

Thanks Tim, glad I'm not alone. When it's finished I then see parts they could be redone !

Thanks also to you all for the comments and suggestions, including buxom serving ladies.

Excellent work John. You’ve nailed figures now haven’t you…..the interaction of the groups is natural. I can almost hear the accordion playing in the background……

[Allen Dewire]

John,
Stand up at take a bow my friend that is an excellent piece of the modellers craft.

That is superb John. So much to look at and admire. The figures are great - you have really got figures sorted. As usual the buildings are spot on. Love the flowers. You have really captured the atmosphere of a typical French street .
