Superb work Paul – a poignant and powerful statement about the stupidity & waste of it all, sooner or later they’ll have to clear up the mess if there’s anyone left to do it. The minaret’s a masterpiece & the whole scene with all its extraordinary detail must have taken hundreds of hours. Bravo

Wow! That is very nice - depiction is spot on... one question - did you scratch build the Big Wheel or is it from an accessory kit? I am always looking for bits like that for my vignettes...
nice job overall!

Wow! I really like the improv cage armour. Isn't building rubble just a lady though? That was probably harder than the entire rest of the build. Came out effective, though I would have added more dust on everything; that's what you come away with from places like that, smells, rubble, death and dust inches thick on literally everything. That and flies...
