Stern0,

I just went through this entire thread, and i have to say this is top notch work! Everything looks fantastic and right which is as important.

I always admire dio people as it take a certain amount of order to create this kind of chaos!

 

Will be waiting for more!

Absolutely VB...going to be lot more dust and debris when finished, thanks for the ash tip...the structure with the hole is burnt down, so ash will indeed be needed....thanks for looking!

Stern0 the details are adding up. to my eye you have even more more dust and debris to add. You can try fine ash from a cigar possibly (please note that I am not encouraging you to smoke it) that kind of thing. A building produces a HUGE amount of dust when it falls down. This is looking really good. Keep it coming.

Thanks Steve, it's has gotten a little out of control as far as the size....started out as one structure! The roofs were a pain and I'm not so sure if I am that happy with them, maybe it will come together with some paint and weathering, Thanks again for the great feedback!

Wow, this looks really cool, and BIG! I like what you are doing with the roofs. This is gonna be awesome for sure when painted up.

Hey fellas!

Another small update, been even slower than usual. have taken the time to add a little ruble and debris to building one and two and a roof for building one...the rubble will look a little better once finished and painted. Also a little work on the exterior of building three...thanks for looking and the helpful feedback!

Thank you guys for looking and you are too kind! The tiles kinda bug me a little because the process was a little bassawkwards...was hard to get the rounded shape because I glued them all down before hand...quite the PITA...I just think they are way to uneven ....thank goodness I use a thick foil, it made it easier to shape...now if I can get paint in all the cracks and crevices..Thanks again guys!!!
