Dave_R Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 Hi All, The Clock Tower is finished. ...and here's the main buildings assembled. It's been a bit of a slog to get this far and I have to get my Gulf War build finished this week, so this will be on a short hold. The next step will be to make a base for the above and I haven't really worked out what I'm going to do yet. Dave. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterB Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 (edited) That is really good Dave - far better than the card buildings I knocked up years ago for my model railway. I guess finding somewere to put even that part is going to be a problem, and as for the rest of it the mind boggles - the Tower of Art on its own looks pretty spectacular if you get round to building it! Guess it would need to be glued to a base given the combination of height and lack of width - reminds me of my old Airfix Saturn V rocket!

Dave_R Posted June 8, 2021 Author Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Hi All, I'm back to working on this. The Library is finished. No Orangutan unfortunately. Dave. Edited June 8, 2021 by Dave_R 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kallisti Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 but... but but you can't fit the Library into normal space, it extends into L-space... ook Ook? OOK! (where's me dried frog pills?) Superb job so far love the details! I once spent a very enjoyable afternoon getting drunk with Terry at the bar of a convention back in the late 80s just before he became super famous, brilliant bloke and genuinely very funny. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helios16v Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Catching up on this. Loved the build. If they weren't so ruddy expensive now I'd be pressed into picking one up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
