Sorry tried to look at your images but you need to register at myspace.

Sorry, I don't want to, or mean to, sound grouchy but if you want help and advice from this site then you need to ensure we can see the pictures without registering on another one.

You could upload them to your photos here or follow the link Pat has posted to figure out what the problem is.

I'm sure we'd love to help but most want to do it by the simplest and easiest methods, plus having it here means being able to refer back easier.

Look forward to seeing your efforts

Alan

Hi Kenny

What scale is it?

It looks quite big for a first attempt, hope you don't run out of steam on it as it looks like you've set yourself a lot to fill out.

If it was me I'd probably reduced the embankment length either side so to give more focus to the bridge, but that's not a criticism of your work just what I'd do if making it, personal choice.

Is there going to be water or earth under the bridge?

Good luck with it, and the wife

Alan

I'm guessing from the relative size of the tools behind that it's 1/35. You should be able to get some nice interaction going between the different levels. What vehicles and figures do you plan to include?

Never seen a pic of Hitler holding a baby.

its 1/35th and will only extend maybe 6 inches either side of bridge. it will ba a water feature underneath. the figures will be a patrol coming back into a checkpoint. sandbag emp on left with stop arm or blockade. the 1st hillside has mossy type cover ive trimmed down.
