Nah, I'll make my own (need to do it for the eventual Boxer range anyway)  :)

I will probably want some of those too.
 ;)



I rather like the woodpile. It could give a good vantage point for someone.

Yep, or roof access with a bit of a yump...

Both of those points were intended, as I really want to utilise the rooftops as much as possible.
The point of concern is not with it's height, but the amount of space it fills.
I may turn it ninety degrees and have it leaning against the rear fence.....hmmm, not sure.

It is not stuck down yet, so I have every option available.

The actual character that she is based on is from Monty Python's Life of Brian, which may not be so well known outside of the UK...
Monty Whatsit? Life of whowhatwhere? Never heard of it... But then again I live in mouse country, where a man can ride for days and days without seeing his aunty.

 :o That is looking good.  8)

I don't think it's too large, but it's certainly a tidy pile. The proprietor must have minor OCD, and not be afraid of termites infecting his goods and eating his shop. Perhaps he should raise his stock off the ground on bricks, and keep it from touching the store. ;) lol

Cheers

Cheers, Matt.
Dont worry, that pile IS raised up on blocks and is not stuck in place, so does not need to be resting against the wall.
There is more to do to it, adding a tarpaulin cover for one and there are plenty of loose planks to be thrown around in a haphazard fashion once all the rest of the crap is in there.

Really loving this model bud.  The wood pile is a great stepping stone to the roof for sure.   

Nice job.

Knowing you, mate, that is EXACTLY what will happen.

Thanks, mate.
I do want to encourage players to use the rooftops.
Things seem more cinematic that way.

Rock!.....Upsheet Creek for BLAM 2014 UD:09/05

Just a small update...

Something else arrived in the post yesterday, another aquarium rock formation.
Not as big as the last ones I picked up, only about half the height, but it should provide a nice bit of variety.

It has had a small adjustment made to it as the topmost 'rock' was balancing rather precariously in a totally unrealistic way.
I pushed a bit of foam in the gap, coated it in green stuff to blend it in with the existing structure and slapped some paint on.




Stylistically, I think it will blend in quite well with the others once it has been based and scenic 'crap' added.....




Well, that is the plan anyway, fingers crossed that it works....
