This is what I'm doing.



The centerpoint of the build is a blacksmithy. The plan is to use a flashing led for the fire.

Just a quick blocking in of the shanties in foamcore. ;) they shall be clad in corrugated Card.





What's that sticky white and black thing? A removeable moisture condenser ;)

Cheers
Matt.

I like your idea of a flashing light.

I might nick this idea.

On your bike Eric ;)  lol  lol

Thanks lads.  :D It is penciled to fit in OW, Retro SciFi, Post Apoc, and a Goblin cavern town..  o_o

I'm mostly worried about timing to get this finished, but we will see how we go. Im doing a little each morning and night to let the PVA glue on the timber frame dry. So its progressing slowly.

I've also cut up some scale corrugated iron sheeting.

Next photo when I've finished the timber frame for the smithy.

I like your idea of a flashing light.

I might nick this idea.

Go for it Tony! Pop it in your build. :D

I think this will be a really good gaming piece Matt. I'll swap you a cold storage facility for it!  lol

See how we go, I may be attached to it after the month is through ;)
But if you win the comp i'll take you up on your offer  lol  lol  lol  lol

Cheers
Matt

Very quick! That is an awesome start. I'm beginning to feel a little out of my depth the more I look at other people's work.
