This is really progressing well. I want to try my hand at building dio's like this but haven't ever gotten past the start line. I am really enjoying and learning a lot from watching your process.

This looks like it will be a really cool diorama. Do the bricks come on a sheet? If so, where do you source them? They look good!
Cheers, C.

Thanks Lads Hi Creading yes the bricks ,sidewalk and road are all sheets of a foam type material easy to cut and glue,I have just used up the last of mine except for a few off cuts as my LMS has stopped stocking it , The company that makes it is Heki its mostly for train layouts.

This is quite the diorama setting in process. The workup is really cool to see in your photos. Amazing skills here, to achieve the realism in this scale. Looking forward to the next ones!
