I nearly forgot to do an update on this build so here it is. I have started on the first building by putting three walls together and adding a frame work for the floors. Once this was done I added some stirrers as floor boards. I did have a bit of a set back as predicted by Moni when I removed the door. The front of the house basically ended up in four bits. Not to worry as I can make it look like it has been hit by a round.[ATTACH]103458.IPB[/ATTACH]

looks great Terry,sorry to hear that,had happened,but adds to the look of it all,


the the one thing i hate with plaster,it dose that,and will alway be a bit you dont wont it to happen too,


good use with the stirrers,i find them so hard to cut,the round ends i cut off with side cutters,the wood


is like steel,


all coming along nicely,

I am leaning more towards the two houses being joined.

Over the last week I have made a start on the LRDG vehicles to give me an idea on how I want the dio layout to look. I am going to add a couple of German vehicles to the mix as I want it to look like there has been a bit of a fire fight at an out post. As yet I am unsure which way I prefer the buildings (seperate or joined). Does anyone have any thoughts on this? [ATTACH]104694.IPB[/ATTACH]

My thoughts are this on either of the layouts I want a German truck parked behind one of the buildings with maybe a Kubelwagen out front. with both either having or had there insignis removed or about to be destroyed by the LRDG patrol.

Those buildings looks really good!!


My vote is separate... Anyway could be nice to add something to unit them...


I think the buildings must be the protagonists, maybe is not usual...because most of us add these or other items to accompany the vehicles


Excellent dio so far

[grumpa]

[Richi72]

Terry, how about keeping the main buildings apart, but join them with a simple arch / vehicle wide alley way, and have the flat roof going across to the tower as a sort of balcony complete with a concrete upstand around it? You could then put a doorway into the first floor of the tower.

Hi Terry I've just found this and I have to say iam impressed this is looking good so far.
