Heya

Would you care to make a run down of the colours used in the process of the buildings in white and the water tower please? :)

Re:Mississippi those are old Deadlands Great Rail Wars miniatures, you may have a tricky time finding them though since http://www.jeffvalentstudios.com/ seems to be downsizing at the moment. They were a range of rough, oversized miniatures but they had great character to them, hope they pop up again.

I'll have to paint some swatches for the colours since I've been using a bunch of house paint sample pots for painting terrain.

Damn Michi that tower is great, love the detail in the pouring pipe, you've done way more research than I have.
