Very nice. I'll bet that wasn't built in a day.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Very very nice, just went through the whole thread and very inspired by what you have done.
Roof tiles look great and it's a fine idea to copy.

You just need a mountain of clutter to make it looked lived in but I'm sure that's well in hand.
Cheers

Thanks for all the interest - it helps to keep me plugging along.

Late to the party as usual. Absolutely beautiful work, and I may have to steal some of your ideas.

One question though: where do you get the stone flooring found in many of the interiors Of your buildings? I initially thought it was the paper you can get for dollhouses but it has some texture to it.

I have a blog post about it here http://adventuresinlead.blogspot.com/2023/04/gangs-of-rome-food-shop-tutorial.html, but it is just DAS Air Dry Modelling Clay.

Thanks for all the nice comments - didn't realise people were still looking.  lol

So, how did the big participation game go?   Do you have any photos?

I have been very naughty - was meant to post pics of this a year ago (a year ago?!?!?). The participation game was a great success and had many people playing over the 2 days I ran it. I tweaked a scenario where the gang members were after the heads of the enemy gangs - the literal heads - and it went down a treat.

So hear you go, a dump of random photos from the day. Better late than never!
