So far....MARVELOUS! A very nice job. Make sure you post pictures of the completed work please. Do you have any in-progress photos you could share?

Cordially,

Dennis

P.S. Do you know if this was an actual event?

Cool idea, looks like the Nazi's were the original street gang. I hope to see it finished soon.

Congrats to this scene, well done so far.

Thanks all,

I’m not so frequently on forums like this because it takes me too much time to create a decent piece of English text. On the Twenot forum there are more frequently updates but that’s written in Dutch. http://www.twenot-forums.nl/viewtopic.php?t=13980





The real house









The house as model.



The first set-up. The street however was ruined because the clue between the wooden base and the plastic didn’t hold. After a lot of bad words and ways to correct the damage the hard decision was made to do it over all over again.



The furniture



A real photo of what I like to create.

All whit all still a lot of work to do.

All the best

Marcel
