Title: Desert Buildings Project
Post by: Lardy Rich on 28 December 2013, 10:32:42 AM
One of my many projects for the Christmas period has been the knock up a few desert buildings for my North Africa Chain of Command set up.  It's been a case of using up old left-overs rather than anything fancy and new.  You can read about the first part of my journey here:  http://toofatlardies.co.uk/blog/?p=2217

Apologies for some of the blue on blue images.  I shan't do that again!

Right chaps, just updated the post to show the painting and the finished job.  Hope you like it.  I reckon they worked out at about 50p a building.  Not as swish as some ready made stuff, but a damned site cheaper!

Nice work Rich. They have really turned out well. For an encore, can you show us how to do a small French cafe, with a 'little' tank parked outside? I fancy a scenario where I have to rescue the fallen madonna...  with the big boobies
