I didn't take any photos of the foam board cut into some sections. So this from the net is just as good !:smiling3::smiling3::nerd:

Stand by, buildings and base time. Had a good day cutting out the buildings and roofing card, that will be covered later in corrugated sheets. All taken down now ready for scribing.
Base stone sets done, tomorrow expert to get a little done on the walls, that's going to take some time scribing the bricks.

Beautiful masonry. Nice planning. Will be impressive. PaulE
 
So far nothing Flammable in the works.......and it appears there will be water nearby, just in case. Well done JR. Very impressive road work Sir.

John, always my favorite part of the build...now at least modelers will know the effort you put into the base and supports. This is background work most people don't fathom...the planning and measurement precision. I like the fact you've off angled the scene instead of at right angles to the base.

Of course I'm standing by with the extinguisher. :smiling6:

Cheers,

Have to say its mine as well Richard, decided this time to show how I actually construct Stand easy with the extinguisher as much as I had wanted the chance to set fire to part of it don't think there will be much need.
