Buildings are really starting to come together
What are you going to do about the water?

[odd duck]

The water is being represented by paint and gloss varnish, I'm between coats as I write! Just blue sort of smeared/dry brushed over a black base coat.I'm using the same blue as my gaming table so it will blend in with the rest of my scenery.Use the blue table for naval games ,add green or brown boards for grass or desert with gaps between them to represent water features when required,but I'm getting off topic.I have all three buildings painted except for some windows and doors on the european building,have to finish cutting and painting some wooden pilings and miscelaneous wood trim,and most importantly finish off the brige which I've foolishly left to the last minute!!This is my last day off before the deadline,hopefully i'll make it!

that's brilliant! The fan for the bridge... and I love the incredibly easy way you make the boats... it is pretty lovely!

OK calling it quits for tonight,got the bridge painted,had some warping of the fan material.but it was'nt fataljust have to drybrush the doors on the warehouse and take the pics in the morning and send them in.I've had to postpone adding all the bells and whistles i had planned for this project till after the contest (Chinese lanterns,signs ,another stairs,pilings, a junk ect)next time i'll chose a smaller project
