Ah. Quite reminiscent of the late Captain Richards' work in that regard.

Wow, there's some amazing work. I can't say I've ever seen that before, and if he has passed away, the hobby is worse for it. A loss!

Excellent work. How did you do the wooden beams on the underside of the roof?

Amazingly good, something to inspire us all

This is good Thank you FramFramson... if nothing else, photo textures save an awful lot of brushwork!! 

Excellent work. How did you do the wooden beams on the underside of the roof?

Thanks Osmoses, the beams are simply thin strips of mounting board about 2mm wide which are then stained and dusted, took an age to stick them all on tho...

Many thanks Vagabond, much appreciated

I've just gone through the text rather than just being blown away by the pictures and was amazed that this is graphics not paintwork.
I have always had a soft spot for card buildings but this akin to paper buildings as Concorde is akin to a Sopwith pup.
I also realised that the other most inspirational Japanese building post was your village a few months ago.
You are amazingly talented.

Don't let this go to your head you need to keep practising, post your results for us to criticise.

Thanks. I feared as much. I remember doing the same thing with balsa many years ago, and it did take forever. I was hoping that you'd maybe discovered some miraculous material that came in sheets

Many thanks Vagabond... high praise indeed I do need to restore my MoJo...

Alas no Osmoses... it does come in sheets, but you have to cut it up!!     Many thanks...
