Thanks for the feedback once again.  :D

The warehouse has been completed just in time, along with a few other items.
Those of you visiting Colours in Newbury over this weekend will get a sneak preview before I get a chance to take & post some photos.

Stunning... o_o
Lots of ideas and suggestions.

Thanks God, you've finished your project.
Or not... ;)

Fantastic stuff! It's great to see this project back on track, and the warehouse is brilliant - nice interesting shape (warehouses can be a bit 'boxy' after all), good proportions, and clearly a lot of thought has gone into the utility of the piece, which besides looking great, is clearly a gaming piece too.

Looking forward to seeing a lick or two of paint on this!

I am just catching up on this thread... you buildings are simply amazing!  I especially enjoy the extra
detail you have added in the windows!  Please post some photographs of your game! :D

Question...  Is the PVC foam you use for your brickwork the same thing as balsa foam?

Topjob as always Paul - the attention to detail really makes the model come to life.

I was doing a quick scamper through the show when I encountered Paul - his game was being enjoyed by several players so I took a few quick pics with my trusty phone camera. I haven't had time to tinker with these and they are only from the phone but I think they give some of the flavour of what looked like a really fun game.

If he wishes, Paul can add some more deail to what was going on - I was only there for 5 minutes.

That's a beautiful layout. I think we all aspire to playing games on that standard of terrain.

Top Geezer indeed!

Look like a fun game. With a very high level of details to create the 70’s vibe…  8)
I really wish I could go to a wargames show one day…  :'(

What a brilliant board! Some of thos pictures look like still shots from a movie! Amazing stuff - and as some of the posters have already said, it's really something to aspire to. Really excellent.
