Hmm... Those are some nice models but why does it say "HÄLT" on the barrier? It should be "HALT", "HÄLT" would mean "is stopping" instead of "stop!"

... you are entirely correct ... the two dots (the whole word) is burned into the wood ... I'll be fixing that ASAP! :-)

Also letting 4Ground know so they are aware ... I was just filling in the lines ;-)

Love your checkpoint! Little things like this breath life into any battlefield.

That is great mate. Where did you get the roads?

Thats the nails that are holding the board onto the barrier

They are from Rick's Scenics (http://ricks-scenics.com/).  A bit pricey ... but the guy is local for me (in California).  The roads come like this (I repainted mine):



An alternative would be Wizard Kraft Terrain who also does similar type cobblestone roads at 1/2 the price (http://wizardkraft.net/Terrain/).

!!!! I wish I had thought of that response!

Thanks for the two links.  I may have to give those roads a closer look.  The shipping is a bit steep for a small order though.

He may be flexible on that ... I'd drop him an email to see what he can do for you.

That does look great. Crying out for a Steve McQueen on a BMW figure.
