Here's a sneak peak at my current project. I've done a lot of sanding on the building since this picture was taken, so the stucco stuff doesn't look so globby. I've got to add trim and other details in and around the house, some grass in a yard, some debris, and finally make some more figures to put in there. That thing on the right of the Mechanical Mule in the second pic is a Verlinden model of a Medic tending to a Marine. The base is wood with cork for the sidewalk, ground, and building. The building has Plaster of Paris for the stucco on the outside. I used a wood burning tool to burn grout lines in the bricks under the stucco.

Howdy Brad,

Thx for the 'sneak preview'. :-) I really like your dio setting. When I look at it I'm immediately concerned about the soldier walking point on the sidewalk! So, I suppose you've accomplished an emotional reaction which is one of the important things to do in dio building IMHO. Good on ya!

Tread.

BTW, love the playboy bunny.

Thanks for the compliments. Actually, that M-60 gunner is going to be giving cover for a guy carrying another wounded Marine to the medic station. They're going to be placed between the front of the Tank and the building. There's also going to be a guy behind them going to help the guy get the wounded guy back. Here are two photos of the figure kits I'm going to be using.

looking good so far, i think you would also need to build up more pieces of wall which your casualty is resting against. Can't wait to see this finished.
