Be sure to get plenty of photos. It looks like another masterpiece in the making. Nice use of laser cut components.

Post by: OSHIROmodels on April 16, 2017, 08:29:43 AM: Going strong at the moment, main construction is done it's just a case of finishing the details/tidying up and casting enough roof tile sheets (another 24 or so o_o )

'Fraid not mate but it's a similar layout to the last time but with the addition of the tenshu and some other bits.

It's looking great. I hate the fact that I'd like a Samurai set up more and more everytime I see your stuff. :D

You should have. All the food vendors had huge lines and the machines were completely empty by midday. I would have willingly paid GW prices for branded water bottles I think. lol
