The reason the workspace is extremely tidy is because it's the wife's table, mine is not a tidy.


That's much better ! ;)
Coming on a storm Andy....Top notch !! :-bd

Coming along nicely Andy

My only comment would be that you can save some dosh by buying ready-mixed filler from Poundland for...um...a pound  :) Cheaper than 'proper' Polyfilla & just as good - I'd recommend mixing a touch of sand in [for more depth of texture] as well as some PVA [to help seal it & give it further protection from the rigours of gaming]

Looking good though - these will look top-notch once they're done  :)

Hi everyone
                Ok I have now added a few more details some doors and removable roofs, I am still undecided as to whether to add more roofing material, anyway here's the pictures.

Does Pendraken do oil drums? And if so do you have a picture

Thanks Nick for the heads up on the Polyfilla from poundland that should saved me a few pound. :)

You're welcome  :)

As for your roof sections - I think some crossbeams here & there, maybe some corners still on & rubble in the centre of the buildings (where they've collapsed in) would be good - otherwise everything might look too 'empty'?

Hi everyone
To be honest not much progress, work family etc has all got in the way.  Anyway I have now added more roofing material, rubble, and done a little bit of painting.  However I am hoping to finish these over the weekend fingers crossed.

I totally agree with you about the buildings looking empty

Looking great,
for internal detritus:
Mix a tub of sharp sand and fine gravel, a few spent matches and cut off flash/spures spares, pour in, drizzle with PVA, leave for 48 hours, spray & highlight...

Practise in something else first so you don't trash your work!
