Great stuff Has.been!

Your barn reminds me of the Mystery Cave;

“But there’s  nothing in it.”
“Mysterious isn’t it”.

Thanks guys.
Fred, do try 'finishing off' a building or two. It doesn't take long, it makes it look a lot better and is a great way
of using up all those little bits that otherwise just sit around.
Blackwolf, I would tell you the story of the rancid butter, but I wouldn't want you to spread it.

Ruined engine. This has seen action as:-
Industrial damaged scenery in WW1, WW2, VBCW;
Scene of a drugs bust in the near future;
Long abandoned power source on an alien planet &
even as a mega big ruin in 6mm.

From an old campaign. PA Britain has been taken over by USA, hence the
name of both our (simple) rules & the campaign was, '52nd State'.
All things British became banned.
Telephone box, now disused and Tea is brewed in illicit (moonshine type) stills.
I do recall a certain PA figure, in bowler, WW2 gas-mask & rolled up umbrella
being one of the leading rebels. Much fun was had.

Is anyone else having similar problems? I tried (twice) to post these on 28th Oct.
only to be told there was an error, either picture files too big, or posting took too
long (neither true). I tried again just now and... it loaded it twice??!!!!!

I do NOT understand E-lek trickery! (apologies to Catweasle)

I had a similar problem with a post last night.
Love the wrecks by the way. Useful for anything from Pulp to SciFi.

Yes Codsticker, and they are so cheap at Car Booters & Die-cast toy fairs.
Plus you do not have to work out rules for moving them.
Nice to know that the machines are not just picking on me.

Pirates, just because they...ARRRHH!
Honest the gloss is not as noticeable in real life.
The Royal Navy gun crews are the Lamming's range. They were painted over 30 years ago.
I do have more recent Pirate castings to paint, but they are 28mm & these are more 25mm.
Somethings got to give.

Today a Greek theatre. It is a Vacuum formed one I bought from a trader that begins with an 'A'
at Salute about 4 years ago. Sorry but I can't remember their name. I also bought some of
their sand dunes (sold as 15mm, but hey a pile of sand is a pile of sand in any scale). They have the
added advantage that they stack together nicely for storage. Picked up a few of their 15mm
Arab buildings, again very nice.
As, I assume, with most of us these things sat on the 'get around to it one day' pile.
The theatre came, once again to my notice just at the same time as the lid from a broken box.
They fitted together fine & gave the Vac. form a good solid base.
Must drag out the Adobes with sand dunes & photo. them.
