Really coming together!

Terry37

I know I am quite for spells at a time, but the first dio has gotten to a point where I am doing the final details and assembly so it's not much to see. Once I get most of it assembled I'll share some updated pics. One thing I am going to do tomorrow is replace the original pins I put in for the Marines in the street. There is juts not enough to clue them too and have hem survive the trip. So, I am going to add longer pins, flatten hem and drill all the way up through the foot and bend it over and try to hide it with thick paint.  Hopefully that will keep them from breaking loose in transit. Having to do a little backpedaling for this.

More soon,

Terry

It's coming toward the end!!! All the figures have been placed except for the Bone Collector and he goes in during the final assembly. Also the little street sign will too, as well as the additional pieces of flying glass. and the door. But you can start to see what it's going to look like.







More soon,

Continued thanks for you kind comments and support. I continue to work on it, ever so slowly it seems, btu I am really down to final assembly and details. Need to add a little rust to eh street sign, spray the gloss coat and put on the decals and then hit it with some flat and it's ready.

I have made and attached he frame for the awning, and have made the template for the awning, so that part will be ready to go, but will also probably be one of the last parts done. Also, broke off some of the shattered glass, which has been an on going problem, so had to fix that. Needless to say, that shattered glass part is very delicate.







More to follow,

Brilliant, must take a lot of patience to position the broken glass

Great work. It's really coming together.

Thank you for the continued kind comments. A project like this is slow going, The shattered glass has been a real pain actually as it keeps breaking lose where it's glued. I probably need a different glue, one for plastic models, so am going to get some and add some to hopefully keep it from popping loose.
