Hey all thought i would post up some new pics of a few updates on the dio i have nearly finished the Panther it just needs some weathering and dirtying up so i placed the Panther in the base and cut a couple tons of bricks!!!  and stuck these to the base using pva glue it looks a bit ott at the moment but i am hoping once i have scattered some rubble and placed some i beams about it should calm down a bit. Also i have made a start on the ruined factory wall a couple more evenings spent on it should see it finished.    Dan B |

Looks good Dan, I'd only suggest to put some wall segments in the bricks too, to break up the scene, but that's just the way I see it...and I look forward to see some progress !

Dan, I was thinking of a window section, may be even a concrete ornament (roof decoration piece)...
It does look right mate, but adding something would spice up the overall look of the setting in my opinion...
Best regards, G.

While im waiting for parts to come for the JS-2 i have made a bit of progress on the dio of the Panther i started by making some different sized i beams i used craft card which was sealed with super glue to stiffen it up then stuck together with super glue i also made a walkway out of the same material and pieces of plasticard i still need to make some railings out of plasticard to finish it off. The factory wall has been finished and i decided on making a window frame glass will be added once it is painted.    Dan B |
