Great set up.

Thanks for the kind words chaps (and for not commenting on the various errors I can now see :o).

The brick paper is from here:
http://www.ebaystores.co.uk/starboc1

Basically it’s printed on embossed wallpaper so the texture doesn’t exactly match the printing but it gives the eyes the right impression and I stole the idea from Al’s Stalingrad build elsewhere on this forum.

I will be adding to this in due course - although I’d better get it out of the storage boxes and see if it all survived the move!

Thank you, I’ve been an admirer of your work for some time.
I should note that the buildings and vehicles are mine but the ‘set dressing’ and road is by the redoubtable Purple - the whole table is a team effort.

Thank you and yes, that church is on my 'wanna do' list.  But I have the church hall/village hall ready for it:

That's quite magnificent. All it needs are a few squads of Fallschirmjager running over it. I think I have a few lurking in unmade form somewhere. Now I probably should paint up my Home Guard too..  Any chance we will see it at a Scottish show in future? Carronade is coming up on 9 May  :D

That’s a cracking job on the village hall ..... and motivation for me to get mine completed!

Please post more photos if you get chance? Terrific inspiration.

As many others have already said, it's a great looking build. It's also nice that you've posted the source of the embossed brick paper. I've been struggling to find embossed brick paper that I like for my own builds.

Thanks chaps, you are too kind.

I’ll try my best although there may be a slight delay as I work through the other dozen projects I’m dabbling with :). Although if Tin Shed keeps showing those gorgeous cars it’ll jump up the list!

Tempting - although I need to sort out a couple of things before committing to show games again.
