    Obi-Wan, just found this project and love every bit of it. Especially that damaged timber roof, Weird Wild stuff !! Inspiring to say the least.

        Nice roof job Wobble, as for the gutter frames I sometimes cheat using thick masking tape as it's easier to apply and once painted will look just as good as metal frames.

        Cheers,
        Wabble

          That roof damage is superb. Realistic damage is hard to replicate.

                Thanks all, been very slow modelling wise recently.
                Did manage to make all the window frames, not drying after painting. Next will be the glazing and fitting some bars .

                  Right I'm back with an update, sorry to be so long with anything worthwhile posting.

                  Been working on the main building, its taken a lot of time to produce some windows, glass and those gutters. Have to thank Wabble for his advice on attaching the guttering:thumb2::thumb2:.

                  With more ado the photos.

                                Man! That is GORGEOUS, John !! Whew, you do aim to please, no doubt! For me the two details that keep diverting my attention from the whole, are: the burnt damaged roof timber , and the shattered window panes. How'd you pull that off ? Geez... Top Notch work here.
                                Ditto on the B/W pics, looks so real...
