wow, this looks really great with the added details. the roof tiles are wonderful. top notch scratchbuilding my friend. the one small note is that the rebar should be sagging downward. i can understand that an explosion may cause the rebar to be bent upward from the blast but most examples i have seen indict that upward blast cuts away rebar and what you see after is "roof collapse" where the edges of the blown away roof has sagged due to no support. here is a pic that shows rebar fatigue and the concrete "clumps" that were suggested to add:



HI RES

hope this helps. interested in what others have seen on rebar. cheers, mh

hi!
looking good so far :-) one little tip from me is at the rebar, put small pieces of "concrete" attached to them as they are never completely clean, even big chunks of concrete can still hang on.


Hi Mats, thanks so much for comment and very useful about yours tip I certainly do that. Prasert.

Hi Prasert,
Truly masterful! I love the look of the building already. You are a real expert at the plaster work & have a remarkable eye for detail. I wish you could talk us through how you did it.
Vietnam city scenes are my favorite subject so I'll be watching this one all the way!
Keep up the good work, my friend. It's absolutely amazing!
Joe.

Hi bros and friends, I has step out from this preview for long time and some pics had delete by the original photo hosting web. Here with my revise of pics that had gone from the latest preview and a little update one of the household furniture that is electric roof fan. For the next update I am now making all household furniture that can add to the building such as display cabinet, table, chair, table fan, wall picture, separate room and etc. that can push it on. Some of this furniture I make it a little rough because it much come to the damage due to the destroy from bullets and bomb. Also with this electric roof fan it much be a little damage and hang down from the roof. I can show you my next update soon and please follow my next preview. Thank you to all comments and suggestions. Thanan.
new pics revise and new update.





I design to increase the specific sand bag bunker like this reference picture on the street front of the building too.



making roof fan
sculpt fan base from art clay

stick fan lid cover to the top and rear side.


cut out 3 pieces of propellers. I use aluminum sheet to make this.





This fan shall turn to the damage and hang down from the roof after.


coming up with next update about interior furnitures soon.
