        If you don't do it as France, you will be in trouble with Matron for false advertising!
        It is titled as 'Street Scene France 1943 ish'.....

          France for me John, looking good as is to be expected from yourself.

            France gets my vote. Plenty of scope to use your skills.

              I too would vote for France.
              Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

                    As someone mentioned Italy, I'd be a little biased in expressing my preference.:rolling:

                      Thanks for all the suggestions. Appreciated
                      There is some thing just not right.

                      Will have to have a long think about it.

                          Late to the parade Papa John.Thanks for sharing about foam.Ive seen a few guys use it on youtube.Im wondering how much the hot wire cutters they use are.?.Some use really snazzy ones mounted on a plate with measurements on them.Like what you do with your buildings chum.I can offer tge rabble rice crispies cakes made with chocolate and frothy coffee from my Hotel chocolat velvetiser.
                          Got my opera glasses to watch from the orchestra stalls.Now play on.

                            Richard, you don't really need all the fancy stuff. Just as good a result can be obtained by using a steel rule and any sharp bladed thingy.

                            Cheers.

                            Sorry to hi-jack your thread a tad 453.

                              All dark arts for me Ron.Ive been tinkering with balsa and polymer clays on a couple of ruins.Not as easy as foam.Nightshift on youtube is the bod with fancy hot cutter.

                                Rich , the only one that appears to be any good is the Proxxon, even that is better after a better after market fence is bought.
                                I looked at several , most had problems with cutting large sections of foam , some were under powered . The Proxxon has a variable power out put .
