Hey guys,
 Here is a link to my blog on the Dead Man's Hand town I'm currently working on. A town with no name as of yet, but I've got a few ideas!

Thanks for looking!
Ivor

I like all the little additions to make it more lived in.
I also like the partially built building in the background of some photos, I think I will steal that idea and add some partial cladding to my 4ground building.

Thanks guys! Burt, I'm going to put up the under construction building soon, you'll get a much better look at it then. It's turned into one of my favorite buildings! :)

Excellent work. How did you make the street or if purchased who makes them?

Thanks a lot, appreciate it! The streets I purchased at Historicon last July. They are made by Battlefield Terrain Concepts. I had seen them the year prior, but they are kind of expensive. They are like a latex rubber and they are really made to be used as individual roads. For my board I just put three next to each other to get a bigger "street", but I'd need a lot more to cover the whole town, and that's way more money than I want to spend! I'm going to try to make my own streets here in the next couple of weeks with a product I found called Liquitex Flexible Modeling Paste.

Hopefully this will work out and we can have a much cheaper alternative! I'll share the process on the blog when I start (Unless it turns into a disaster, to which we both forget I ever had the idea and will never speak of it ever again!).

Thanks a lot! It was, though to be honest, I wish they'd chosen some different photos. I think there are some that are much better than those :)

Here's another update - this time I took on the Sheriff's Office and finally got a chance to upgrade a stairway!

Thanks for taking a look!

Excellent work, best bit of decorating I've seen since Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and Handy Andy  :-*
