As a small break from doing Star Wars stuff, I've been asked to build a diner based on Al Macs Diner in the US....

It's supposed to be for zombie games so its going to be boarded up as if someones holed up inside. Also I was given a certain size base for it to occupy for it won't be a perfect scale model. Still WIP......

Top notch Mr M!
-
That looks so full of promise already!
is the wooden boarding balsa wood hacked up a bit with a scalpel?
-
Oh my good Lord! That is AWESOME! :D
-
That was quick
Great work :-* :-* :-* :-*
-
"I stand amazed" as someone in Blackadder once said! :)
-
Is there no stopping you Andy?! :D 8) :-*
-
Beautiful work. I live in awe of your skill. :D
What size brick plasticard have you used for the exterior? I've been unsatisfied with the last couple I've tried but that looks spot on.
-
Lovely drain pipe. There's a sentence I've never uttered.
-
Looking awesome already, can't wait to see it progress. ;D
-
As usual it's bloody awesome mate
-
Splendidly :D
cheers
James

That's brilliant. Will you be doing illuminated signage? :D

Yip.....and I've used a sharp pencil just to draw some lines on it, to make it look more worn.
Beautiful work. I live in awe of your skill. :D

No lights will be harmed in the making of this building!
Thanks Mark!
I've gotten a little bit further with this and I've also received a small care package from my client to use in dressing the base....a dumpster and a few trash cans.

Absolutely top notch. Love the litter and the extra detail. Are you building the interior or is this just a façade? Again top notch.
Snitchy sends.

Stunning and inspirational - love the small details that really make the model stand out.
Thanks LT! I wasn't sure if the pics were too blurry to make out the 'Zombie Crossing' sign!
Thanks chaps and chapettes!
-
Verra verra guid! Love it :-*
-
Top banana!!! ;D
-
The finished diner is ace.
The British bobbies look a little lost outside it though...
And the objective markers - those are so cool - the bags spilling white powder, the dollar bills falling out of the case, awesome.
-
This is so cool and really inspiring! The attention to details is extraordinary and the final product is just great.
-
Andy, you're an inspiration! Amazing building and all the details :-*
I am going to steal some ideas for my next project :)
-
Cheers guys!
@Prof- I can't wait to see what that project is!
-
Photobucket links repaired.

Thanks for fixing the links!.
I had never seen this thread before and it is simply wonderful!
