These are looking great, I've just made some more compounds but I didn't get the roofs right. I did make a lift-off-the-top-of-the-building type, but the way you've done it, and I did on my first compounds, is much better.
The shops are great too, where did you get the air recon units from?

Cheers, guys

where did you get the air recon units from?

scratchbuild. they're just blocks of balsa wood for the structure.
I punched a disc out of a Britta filter (barely noticable, but the two outer circles on the bottom are mesh)

I then cut a piece of styrene to fit one side of the balsa block and punched a hole of the same size as the mesh.
sheet onto balsa, mesh into sheet and bob's your uncle.
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Oh blimey!  ;D

Do you think they could be casted from?

I'm about to bung a thread up featuring my compounds, see what thee think.

Dunno, I already had a hard time getting gesso and paint in those tiny holes, but I guess it would be feasible.

Ta, worth considering the aircons I think I could cast us both a few up and then you'd not have to make anymore.
