Just needs a wizards tower lighthouse.

I'm watching you  >:D

Jesus, do you actually sleep James?  :o  lol

On occasion  lol

I meant to ask, you have a cut-away of what looks like the harbour wall, are you going to try some stormy waves crashing over it?

Shit no  lol

Unless of course the master wants it (which I'm hoping not), it'll be a nice, calm day in Dorset...

Little bit more progress for the harbour buildings...





I've also made a small start on the harbour walls themselves but I still need to think it through  :?



This will possibly go on hold for a short while as I've got other things that need attending to  ;)

cheers

Oh those terrace houses look really cool James, they are doing to work great in the harbour.  8)  8)

I really like where this is going. Make sure you have some fishing boats, cranes and nets. ;)

The different heights in the town look great. Some nice winding streets down to the dockside.

I like the harbour walls too.

At the risk of sounding all gushy (damp and garrulous not George like) those buildings really are the dogs bollocks. They really look like they've been lifted from a photo and magicked onto that layout. Dead impressive those are.

Thanks chaps  :)

Apart from Kev, who's definitely not getting any bits now  >:D

I'll let you off now then  ;)

Oh yes, lots of bits  :)

Just catching up on the harbour build; looking good. I've wanted to do a Staithes-like harbour for years so I'll be watching this with interest. I never came up with an idea that I felt worked for having a deeper water harbour placed next to a beach, though I was going to rock armour the outside edges of the harbour walls. It'll be good to see how you do it.

Well, need to get BLAM out of the way and then back to these.

For BLAM though I've finished off the smithy which is below and the pub is nearly done which I'll post when it is.

Looking good.

Certainly not a stupid question but the stupid answer is I don't know  lol

Just set dressing I guess  :)
