She is looking' great! I really want this kit, being a train guy, I have had my eye on this kit, but it's a bit out of me price range at the moment. Looking forward to the next update.

Thanks a bunch Steven! Then you would appreciate the extra details on the underside for sure I think. There are a number of changes you will have to consider and one being the rod stock to brass rod as the plastic is tedious to clean up and brittle in nature. But a small change in the big scope of things. Very interesting subject though! Don't hate me when I'm done though!  |

Thanks Luigi! They do have a slightly different version about. Nothing confirming, you know how rumors are, but this one might be decommissioned leaving the other as the only one. This could do anything to the price of this one...go down due to inactivity in the shopping lines or go up for the rarity. Will have to wait and see.

My vote would be flipped over on its side and used as a Berlin street barricade or similar.  |

I think it's too nice to wreck. Make this one pretty and get another one to wreck. |

Well, it has been a while and this was my long term build but didn't expect it to go out that far though!  So.....it will not take a degree in astrophysics to figure out where I am going with this one.   So that is that in a nutshell! I still have plenty to do on this...the roof needs to be worked over and plenty of rubble...guessing I might toss a fig or two in there as well I suppose! I will be bringing this to the bench again in about two weeks. I am heading to Hampton, Virgina for the IPMS show next week. Myself and a good friend are working with Vallejo doing demos in the vendor room as well as a seminar...should be a blast!!! If you are in town for the show, stop by the Vallejo tables and say hello!! Thanks for taking the time to swing in an have a peek!!  |

ah that is what you talked about in the email, but no pic attached. Been doing some last minute things and now checked.
Well I didn't expect anything less from you bro, nothing like a bit of destruction to get the mojo level up. Looking great so far. I found a nice ref pic of a trolly car, might have to do it.
