Looking good so far - I will be following your progress.
Neat looking structure & pier Ken.....
That's where I'd like to go to dinner today! ;D ;D ;D
Looks great love the roof
Hi Ken:
Looks good so far just needs a little detail. Maybe a nice roof sign. I'll see what I can find. something seafoody.
Karl
Hi Here's a few seafood signs. Maybe you can resize the crab sign for on te roof.

Made some progress on the dio for the Lobster Shack . I don't think I like the sign on the roof and I think it may need some signage on the wall overlooking the pier.
And I need to weather the O rings I'm using for tires on the pier I think thy look like inner tubes right now or use some tire castings I was cheaping out on that one

Very nice work. Great weathering, love the signage and the significant level changes.

Try some rtv rubber mold for tires and life rings. Once i make the mold I use the red bondo for auto body and add resin to it . That make it flow better. Supper cheap for all kinds of casts. Hope it helps.
Ken
Regarding the tires. Find some tires from matchbox or hot wheels or most anything that scales out well and grey them out and hang them where it makes sense. Tires on the small side will solve the need for appearance but not steal the scene.
See ya
Bob
