Fabulous, John!
there's such a lot going on and so much to look at -more pictures please!
What an epic achievement- I would have been happy with any one element of it, the gun, the buildings, the figures, but it's all there. Your figure work gets better and better too.
Great stuff!

 

[outrunner]

John, that is really impressive, lots of stuff to hold the interest and very well made.

Wow Dude 2,

That's "Da Hammer" John!!!!!!! Loving every cm of it....Top finish and there are some fine, mean and ugly looking dudes in it!!! The facial expressions say it all. Gotta be your best yet Buddy. Like Neil said, more pics please and throw some B/W pics in there too, if you can!!!

Prost auf Dich
Allen

 

[Tim Marlow]

Loving that John. Great job. The interaction between the figures really brings it to life. The whole gives a proper impression of the gun’s size as well. It really was a huge beast.

Superb, well done JR.

Absolutely spot on in every way.

Award yer'self a goldfish in a poly bag!

Hi John
That is b****y brilliant. Each element is spot on and the whole thing hangs together perfectly. You have got to be dead proud of what you have achieved.

Awesome work JR. Really enjoyed watching this project come together. You have excelled yourself once again. A real credit to your modelling talents. Go and have a well deserved bevy my friend. Luv it!!

 

[Guest]

My, oh my, that is a wonderful piece of work John. Not only superb modelling, but lots of detail and little incidents to keep the viewer amused for hours.

 

[Ian M]

Great work all round Mr. Race!

 

[Si Benson]

Well it was certainly worth waiting around for!
The gun itself is such a beast, with the figures all milling around and the building in the background it helps to show it off nicely.
The building work is definitely up to your usual high standard and yet again I see improvement with the fine painting....Superb result mate, very nice indeed :thumb2:

 

[The Smythe Meister]

Dunno what to say Mr.R........ that`s simply STUNNING :thumb2: ,
The Guys have already said it,but the figures really do bring it to life.There is so much to take in that i`ve already been over it several times,and,each time i spot something that i`d previously missed!
Amazing stuff John,you must be well pleased.:hugging-face:

Well what can I say to each of you other than a big big thank you, really nice comments from you all.
With Neal and Allen aka Dude 1 In mind here as some more photos, many in B&W with some altered again to sharpen and blur to be more like real photos we see.






Above in it's new home.




Yes the bench is clear, some will be amazed that its tidy, this is a rare photo and should be enjoyed by those who are tidy !

Now onto Mr T's Memorable build.


Once again thank you
John.

 

[Neil Merryweather]

That's quite a body of work ,John, I'm very impressed- AND a tidy bench

 

[scottie3158]

John,
That is an excellent result my friend. Lots of things to see and a great story.

 

[Mini Me]

You realize JR, that just because you tidied up your bench once does not qualify for membership in the "Tidy Bench" Club. I'm sure that 570 would agree with my observations so don't get your hopes up, that is, until you are told the correct amount to be placed in a plain manila envelope along with instructions on where to send it. :rolling:

Thanks Neil, sometimes strange things do happen ( the bench ) , but I fear that won't last long :smiling3::smiling3::smiling3: .

Thank you Paul, appreciate your comments.

This saddens me Rick, but the times Jim has rejected all photos I'm now used to it. Having had my medication increased by Matron I can get over any rejection by the Tidy Bench Club. :smiling2::nerd:

I'm lost for words John. So much going on, with lots of detail in every part. Hats off to you, very very nicely done.
