I must say that along with the really fantastic models I really love your buildings. I have some of the 1st Corp emplacements which are made by you as well?

Cheers Chaps.

The camo net is very very simple to do (all though initially time consuming.)as the net is just a stamped out piece of clay with a grid pattern .The stamp is simply a grid scored onto plastic or milliput (I use several stamps of different sizes.)Then its just a case of adding thin laces of clay squashed/flattened onto the grid.
A bit of practice and its possible to do more complicated pieces like the AA lorry and the supply dumps (not painted yet)
The emplacements are quite old sculpts . I've an old master for a communication trench that I'm in the middle of repurposing into a check point bunker set. As the original had a set of barded wire built in.
Using the same sculpted wire as in the picture.
It's a product that was a limited edition(I don't even have a full set of it. I've only the bombed wire section.and its only Under coated .)
I was tempted to go back and rework the set into a set that uses the pseudo wire roles that are in vogue.As it might be of interest .I simply haven't made the time to pop across the road to my local club to test the waters with idea.
But if you intrested I'll take a picture of the wire set I have .and if your in the market I'll modernise it an ask Simon to add it to the range.
Mark.

I've managed to get the Infant's school .To the point its worth photographing although it still needs some detailing and a matt varnish.

That's very nice work. I am planning a small French village school, but still waiting to be inspired by pictures.

Very nice once again! May I ask what you used for the wall texture on the water tower?
