Fantastic work! Love that martian villa. Those awnings are really well done. 


THANKS

[Dewbakuk]

Very cool. We need to have a chat later. I'm feeling an urge to make that dam again....

[Dr DeAth]

Brilliant!

Will you be adding a door so they can get out on to the balcony above the ramp? 

[Constable Bertrand]

Glad to hear your up and in a state of mobility. I hope you keep recovering well without any set backs.

What are the shade coverings? Loo paper and ova? They look very fragile.

Cheers
Matt.

[gamer Mac]

Lovely work
Love the toll house.
Have to got figures for the city Martians in the pipe line?

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks for the replies chaps 

Give us a bell this afternoon if you fancy Dean.

The door to the balcony is an awning and isn't quite dry yet 

All the awnings are industrial tissue paper soaked with watered down pva and then inked with brown and given a drybrush.

City Martians have been in the pipeline for a while now and we hopefully have serval avenues to explore 

cheers

WOW! Your terrain is amazing! Are your rocks made out of cork bark?

[Dr. The Viking]

Wow!

That's an amazin build James.


You'd be well off with some skirmish VSF, too, soon. Maybe next time? 

[OSHIROmodels]

Thanks chaps 

Are your rocks made out of cork bark?

For the most part, yes. I spend a bit of time choosing ones that look and fit right together

Maybe

[Furt]

They look great James - very "foreign" indeed! 

[janner]

Cracking work 

[Mason]

Cracking update, James.
Love the building with the mix of smooth, rounded areas and flat angular sections.
It looks great!
 

You have sold those tents to me all by yourself as well.
Hit them for some 'promotional' dosh...

[OSHIROmodels]

I think I might get some more 

cheers

James

[OSHIROmodels]

I did get some more 

But in other news, I've brought out some half started viaduct and made a small amount of progress (please excuse the dodgy phone photos).

With the airborne threat of the Sky Martians, waystations have started to spring up along the viaduct at regular intervals; not only is there a small telegraph post located in the little brick hut on the top, there are also a couple of quick firers to help ward off any roaming skiffs until a message can be sent back to New Victoria 

 


Still a bit of work to do and I'm toying with the idea of having railings around the edge similar to the tops of the bridge stanchions 

A few more sections and this should be about the right length for next years Salute. I'll also be hopefully making a mesa that the rail runs onto that'll include a tunnel entrance... We'll see 

Gonna need a whole lotta cork though 

cheers

James

Travel to Spain or Portugal. Find a plantation. You can work out the rest.
