Hi Guys,
Here are some more photos of my dio i have done the bricks and the figures are completed
(the bricks aren't as red in real life) still gotta do the German figures and paint the front bricks and do some bricks for the drain.
All comments welcome

Andy,

looking very good. Glad to see you are definately "on the move"...

One thing puzzles me..... what is that circular for on the first wall ?

Andy,it looks great.Breaking some of the bric,ks near the wooden door can ake it more realistic ...
I think the front wall is the ending of a sewer-drainage system.

Good progress, this one is coming along nicely. Couple of suggestions - I would add some type of 'trim' to the wall next to the wooden door. And I agree with Graywolf - making the debris more representative of the wall would make it look contextual and as if the debris came from that specific wall. I like the look of the break on the left most board of the door, if you could reproduce that on the other doors I think it would enhance it a bit, don't forget to put the door debris in too.

Overall, looking good. Nice/interesting subject, I like the vertical feel and the multi level appearance.

Thanks Guys for the suggestions I will definatly be adding some wood debris.
Danny, The circular object is the end of a sewage systems as Graywolf said. There will be some Germans hiding in and around it.
Steve,the rubble is from a broken up terracotta plant pot that i found in the garden.

VERY cool looking dio you have going there!

I really like the two tiered look to it.. adds alot of visual impact to the scene. That looks to be shaping up nicely, and is a job WELL DONE so far :-) I hope my RMG dio is half as interesting as the one you have going so far!

Later-
