Its getting there. Now be a good chap and make another legation gateway

On it dear boy, on it

Station roof is done and I've just about completed two cars for the train; one passenger carriage and one defence bogie

The station clock tower needs to be complete but I've had to wait as this is where the battery (just about) fits.

And now for the train carriages. After looking at Michi's superb thread for this kit it actually hasn't been as bad as I thought although I've decided not to put lights in it, it'll take more thinking about than I've got time really.

The gatlings are from HLBS and very nice to deal with they were too

They're a bit wonky on the track as there isn't any yet and I'm still undecided as to the best solution

And now a beauty shot using (shock, shock, horror, horror) a backdrop

cheers

James

Very cool. The problem with this wall set up is it's just making me sit here thinking of things with which to breach it

That's not the way my army was supposed to develop....

Could always start another one.....

That's a Hotchkiss rotary cannon. I should know, I've got loads of them on my Venezian stuff

This is so good it's red-iculous... see what I... nevermind.

Seriously, this is amazing

All-in-all, pretty damn fine work

Brilliant!!

You can actually buy plastic rail that might do the job for the track. I got given some, but if you want I can find out where it's from?

If you wouldn't mind, that'd be great

ditto ...

... or at least find ways to safely get my troops inside the walls

Wonderful, that pic with the backdrop is indeed pure

Woulnd't it be quite easy to make the track from just normal plastic I beam?

Inspiring work, as always!

Thanks

Arhh the backdrop finally makes an appearance and it was most certainly worth it

Oh dear, James

That really does look the nuts now, James!
Absolutely splendiferous!

And that must be the ultimate compliment from the master of the art.
