Looking great!

Thanks, Phil.
I am glad that you approve.
 :D

A+

Cheers, Patrick.
 :D

Nice! I like the weeds coming through the boardwalk.

Nicely done.....needs a wanted poster or two though! Lol

Looks liken the sheriff is out of town with a run down HQ like that, I guess he's waiting for the train to arrive in town before setting up shop and cleaning out the cobwebs. ;) :D

It looks pretty cool Mason  8) nice run down effect. I'd imagine wanted posters drifting over the floor inside and out, more than neatly posted to the wall.

I wanted a little more of a 'used' look for this building.
I see it as one of the oldest buildings in town with many previous occupants.
Wanted posters and the sign will have to wait until I am back at work as I do not think I have the font that I need.....hmmmm, I shall have to have a fish around.




I wonder who the sheriff is?

Well Silent Invader is a Marshal(l)...
Close enough  ;)

It is NOT Silent Invader*.

All the characters in town are based on the username of the individual (which has certainly made it more difficult in some cases) otherwise the good Captain would have been the town Bank manager.
 ;)

The Sheriff will be revealed as soon as I sort the new sign out.
 :D



*Silent Invader shall be revealed soon, though.... ::)

The Sheriff's digs do look SPLENDID! AND, you have a real flair for the flora. VERY WELL DONE!

I thought that was pretty clever!

But alas, no!

I'll have to check the list and have a guess. I like your guessing games!

I bet the sheriff arrives with the first train to Upsheet Creek, to bring law and order :)

Looking great Paul, my vote goes also for few wanted posters here and there.

You've certainly got a way with adding character to your buildings.
Ive got a sheriff office awaiting construction, I will take a few pointers from yours.

Tufts do make it very easy, though.

It was but, like I mentioned earlier, I am restricting myself to usernames.
Guess away.

Excellent work mate  :-* :-* :-*

Cheers, mate.
Phil did all the hard work, I just farted around with washes and drybrushing and a few bits from the 'scenic crap' box.
 ;)

It is BLAM attendees only at present, so cannot be the Prof.
Unless you know something that I dont..... ???

I am watching you!

There will be, mate, when I get printing.... ::)

Just add a base and some 'scenic crap'.
It works for me.

Time for those piccies of the Sheriff's place....



















There is still the sign to come, along with the 'Wanted!' posters etc.
Maybe a little something else needs adding too... ;)


I am still not happy with these pics.....maybe take some more later.....

I've lost track of who is proprietor of which Upsheet Creek establishment so far...  o_o
Am I still the hairdresser? (Bugger!)

An up to date list would be nice  :D
(Think of it as the Upsheet Creek Chamber of Commerce directory... )
;)

The building looks gorgeous by the way. Incredible how well a bit of simple basing and set dressing helps set it off...

Weren't you the optician?
I had a look at the BLAM list and I really can't guess! If I have to I'd say Grimm or Ray Earle as they sound sheriffy.

iffy.

Yes, he is indeed the Optometrist.
As he knows full well.
 ;)

Neither of them.
In fact, those two have already been assigned 'other duties'... ;)

Yep, you are right, it is about time.

I shall post the Chamber of Commerce Directory* (so far) later....





*I like the sound of that.

I am glad that you seem to be enjoying it, Steve.
It is pretty good fun to work on too.
 :D

Grimm's Laundry?
Ray Earle Land Agent?

No.

and....

No.
 :D



Some better pictures of the Sheriff's place....















I DID get all the parts for the Train TRACK earlier, but it is going to involve a fair bit of working out before I do it, so I may well start on something else whilst I do the maths...

That's one fine piece of scenery, great detailing on it.

So will Grimm be the local farmer or farmhand, Mr. G. Reaper? Or perhaps the undertaker?

:)
