Title: What FOS should I build?
Post by: madharry on November 13, 2020, 04:49:27 AM
What FOS should I build next? I have three in mind - Dead Horse Bay, Bandit's Roost or Oyster Hill. Seabiscuits is finished and I will post final pictures soon. But I need some imput as to what to build next ............... :) Mike

Mike - I think you should just go ahead and send me all three kits. That's the best and most honest advice I can give...

In all seriousness, I'd love to see you build Dead Horse Bay as I also have that kit on the shelf.

I'm in love with Bandit's Roost (I don't own that) so that would be a close second. A nice kit with the multi-level structures.

Mike,

Anyone of the three will work for me. I don't have any of them, sold Bandit's Roost as it just didn't fit well in a Florida style scenery layout.

However, I'll go with Craig and the Dead Horse Bay as my first choice.

Mike,

I think you're faced with one of life's more pleasant conundrums.   ;D  I'm with Tom on this one.  Any of the three would be fine with me.  Looking forward to which ever one you decide to go with.

Mike, sounds like a pleasant enough way to make use of all that new inside time. 
I built Bandits Roost and really loved building it, and the results.  So I'd enjoy watching one of the others built, but of course the choice should be entirely yours.

Well - the main structure tumbling down the hill on Oyster Hill is one of my favourites, so I'd go with that one.  I know you like to build on a grade.

Cheers, Mark.

Thanks gentlemen for your imput. I like both kits. So next week when I visit the second home I intend picking up two sheets of gatorboard and then build them in tandem. Something to keep me busy while the house sale goes through.
