Far too much. I'm not going to a show again as a punter, it's too easy to buy things  lol

It was very busy; due, I believe, to Colours not being on. Although it will be next year apparently.

cheers

It didn't help that you seemed to have enlisted Dr De'Ath as your personal shopper  lol

And just how did you both get past the security measures imposed at the door - we were on strict instructions to expel any LAF infiltrators?

Mind you we were so busy, as we had record numbers at Warfare this year, it's no wonder we missed two slender streamlined individuals

Double the patrols next year

Anyway glad you enjoyed the day

Been a while since I've looked at this thread; much excellent work in here. The balconies on the tower seem like a good idea. I particularly like the torpedo boat.

Thanks gents  :)

Didn't really need a personal shopper... I did well enough on my own  lol

Blodders, I was quite possibly one of the tallest punters there, you must be slipping (or were on a toilet break  lol ).

Got the balconies roughed out and given a very loose coat of primer to help them show up more.





Stone work to go on the balcony 'base', doors and windows of course and some masonry trim for the top and bottom to do. There are three like this and the fourth has a bigger door and will have some sort of protrusion to allow neffs to dock.

this looks fantastic!

but what will happen if the wind turns? Or are Neffs immune to wind?

Love it. :-*

Is it going to form part of the walls at New Victoria?

Could be a mission objective for the big January game... ;D

The tiny blacksmith did a good job with them railings, nice and even like. I hope he gets a pay raise.

Fine looking tower in the making there  8)

I must admit that I was expecting some kind of sandbag emplacements on those balconies but the railings look good… bit fancy perhaps ;)
