Really nice piece of work. I really like the idea of the retrogressed Geezers.

[Amalric]

Brilliant!

Thanks for sharing.

Regarding the lamp, there is a long held belief within Police circles that Victorian police stations did NOT have their lamps stained blue as Queen Victoria did not like the colour, so they were left as clear glass. I cannot confirm the accuracy of this, but it was a very commonly held theory. I know for a fact that the police station in Hyde Park always had a clear glass light, and this was the reason offered. The build itself is lovely, and really looks the part.

It looks just like St James Park police Station.    I wonder if the model has 3 floors below ground like the real one.   

Its a stunning build

Well if you want to save the bother of building it yourself whilst getting a near identical result, there's always this:

and as it happens not only do they come in two differnt brick colours, they also work  well with 28mm. Pretty cheap too.

A truly gorgeous build, I can't wait to see what else you have in store.

Carlos, that's the waiting room I based it on but I cant agree with it working for 28mm. I bought one and it's too small, that's why I built my own. I'll get a comparison pic up later on. Mind you, that whole Skaledale range is very handy for gaming 20mm VSF.......... now there's an idea........

Jimbib, agree with the door comment, I'll cut a bit deeper.

No need to old bean, just paint a bit more of a highlight on it 

cheers

I think they like it. Its a greta looking model, I like the little touches, the poster and lamp. Most excellent.

Excellent job
Some lovely detail and a cracking paint job. You will need to post a build thread to tell us all how you made it.
The window is particularly nice and really gives a feel for the time.
Did you scratch build the lamp
I agree with Svennn, I don't know why you are getting him to build you stuff when you can do as well as this on your own.
I think you must just be lazy

Great work TC. Very tidy.

Me lazy? Noooooooooooooo!  Okay, I am a bit but I'll stand by the fact Svennn is far better at the bigger builds (which are about to be painted up).
The windows are from Antenociti's, I think you gave me the idea to look there. Not bloody cheap though!
The lamp is from Langley models, I bought a set of four. Again not cheap but worth it.


I'll get a build thread up later.
