This is planned for Salute, but maybe seen out and about early next year - once Andy has had a chance to work on everything of course :)

This is looking amazing.
I bet you are very happy with the progress so far!

Great stuff Andy  8) 8)

Just a tiny bit of advice, don't use oodles of Bostick (other contact adhesives are available  ;) ) with styrene sheeting as the Bostick is a solvent and can make the styrene warp/bubble.

cheers

James

I've had absolutely no hassle with warping at all!! This the glue I'm using if it's any help....



Coming along nicely Andy. Is the plastic sheeting you're using for the sewers from Antenocitis? I like the uneven look about it. Also how do you hold the plastic sheeting in place when you bend it and glue it? I've got clamps (awaits an amusing quip from Malamute) but they'd be a bugger to use on a board like this.

Jimbibbly, I could have done with that advice a few months ago  :(  

This is the plastic card I'm using.....

Before the card is placed into the sewer tube I just bend it round on its self, roll it up, and the glue it in place. No clamps required!!

Wow! Great job on the board... Looking forward in following this project.

Love the UFO :-*

I'm afraid the UFO has to come out! By popular demand.....and it is a wee bit over the top and a distraction from the game!!!



I'm afraid the statue I'm using, Zwerch mit Ohren, is scratch built! I can't remember where the knight model is from. We all got a gift from the very nice Silent Invader at last years BLAM and that model was with.





It's eventually going to be this....

No! Just a saved favourite link to Antenocities Workshop and a melting credit card!! ;)

I've got one side of the Charles I statue done. It's nowhere near perfect and I can't work out what's underneath the cherubs!!!

This is what it's supposed to be....



And this is what I've got...





I'll try and get. Better pics, these ones don't seem great! >:(
