Nice work! I was hoping to see you do something with that Afghan building. Are those grunts from the Masterbox set?

I like the composition, the L shaped building frames the scene really well. It looks a little too clean for me, maybe dust things up a bit. Also maybe add a few objects to give a touch of colour, a rug, some fruit etc.

Thanks guys,
Most was done before hand and waiting to complete.
Yes they are the MB set.Still have 2 from Dragon "desert rats" I want to use.
Paul,totally agree,but as mentioned it was just the start to the finished work.It will be more dirty soon.Haven't added much weathering yet.Have to remember this is a compound,not a street scene so it will be fairly kept clean and fruit would be inside.New pics later.
