For shame I haven't looked in upon this thread for so long. You have made some fabulous additions. Love the buildings and the new fungus

Thanks for the kind words, Brummie! I''m glad you like the progress.
I don't comment as much as I should either, especially since I receive so may nice replies.

After much gnashing of teeth metaphoricaly & some expressions that the clergy don not know, I have Building #6 (The Hungry Eye) all done up in black & white.For ease of painting, I have the Beasty in pieces that fit well enough together that for the time being no gluing is required. SO it's photos time:
The interior of the upper floors:




...the stair well exterior:


...& interior:


...The Thing on the Ground Floor...insert B Horror Movie theme music here:




...the front door (this is going to be partially boarded up, but not enough to hide The Face:




...AND in its place in The Blight:














...there now, it wasn't that bad.

That's not an eye... (it's been a while since one of your photos has freaked me out, even for a second. Nice work.)

Thanks, von Lucky. I aim to freak...make that please. There are some nice bare wall sections that may get the freak out treatment.

The top of The Watch's Tower is now all primed & ready for paint & detailing:


...with a closeup for the door fanciers in the group:




...another door:








This is how it will fit in with the rest of The Blight Tenements:








...yet another door:


AND an overview of The Blight to date:






...four more small hovels to do, then it's on to the REALLY FUN STUFF! OH BABY!

[DeafNala]

The remaining buildings have been blocked out; i.e., I've done their basic shapes. This will give you an idea what the finished piece will look like...at least an image of just how crowded it is.










AND a couple of overhead shots:




...getting there is more than half the FUN!

I haven't had a really good look at this thread in a year or so (mea culpa...)—damn Alan, you're so prolific! And it's all such imaginative stuff too.

You must be running out of real-world house by now—are you secretly building all this so you can secede from the real world and move in to Smuggler's Cove? Heck of a retirement plan!

I'm glad you stopped by to checked out the stuff, tomoqui. Thanks for the reply!
I have been cooking along a a pretty decent pass for an Old Guy. It's seems that the more I do the more I want to do...that seems to be  the key.

[FramFramson]

Now that's looking like a proper slum.

Thanks, Fram; that is the look I was trying for.
I have some Froud/Henson/Burtonish denizens in mind for The Project.
