Thanks chaps  :)

For those at Salute, Nick and Mark will both be sporting very fashionable black eyes and thick lips  >:D

A progress report at just after midnight!  Are you pacing yourself for the 3 and 4am finishes?!  :D

Building up to it yes  :D

It's a pub frontage for the Victorian buildings I do and the yellow is paint wiped in the score lines that are on the front, seems to work quite well  :)

"That's a lot of work James you've achieved" or "that's a lot of work James you've still got left to do"? :D

Either way, best of luck - it's beautiful in the photos, can only imagine it'll be stunning in real life.

Both  ;D

I think I'll leave anymore pictures until after the event, it just takes up too much time to post them  lol

Of course, Salte isn't the end of the project, there's plenty more to come  :D

cheers

Took some decent pictures (yes, they need tarting up a bit) of the residency and the barracks which I'll leave here for you to enjoy  :)









cheers

Slick! The barracks would be useful for loads of genres. It would make a nice retail kit.

Thanks gents  :)

Seriously thinking about that  8)

Black eye for you too?  ;D

How did you do the lettering on the stack?

I got a font similar to the actual one and lasered a vinal masking film, stuck it in place, sprayed white and then removed and added a bit of weathering  :)

cheers
