Thanks, Eric!

They'll get another life all over again when they are planted with details.

Looks great Craig! Great job turning a cheap plastic kit into something really great. All these little structures look fantastic.

Thanks, Steve. Means a lot coming from you.

To be honest, out of all the builds I probably had most fun transforming that Kibri kit! More to come.

Thanks, Greg. And I totally agree — these smaller ones make the world that much more "lived in".

Craig,

The smaller structures really look fantastic. I agree smaller structures add much more than an extremely large kits.  Well done sir.

Thanks, Tom! Really appreciate it.

Hopefully I can get back to finishing the stone building soon!

Craig,

As others have said before me, nice work on the small structures.  Sometimes small ones take more thought processes than contemplating construction methods on the larger ones.  ;D

You did a great job on the four smaller structures. The smaller highly detailed structures really make a scene pop. It is all about the details and you created some great ones.

Rich, John — thanks so much. Pleasantly surprised by how many folks enjoy these little structures. They are a great way to get a quick fix and plan on many, many more.

Appreciate you stopping by, as always.

Nice small structures.  Especially the way you turned the plastic kit into a gem.

Craig,


I was just going over your Emporium Seafood Build pics (pg 23) and I'm speechless. The level of detail and care is absolutely amazing! The way the wood grain and detail paint and weathering holds up to close-up photography is as good as modeling gets in my opinion. Really well done- Hall of Fame stuff.

Jeff — thanks! I'm pleased with that little guy. Got some other plastic kits lined up already, including a couple signal towers!

John — wow. Thank you! That's some high praise indeed. My particular aim with most builds (especially true with these larger signature kits) is for them to hold up nice and true when under the scrutiny of a tight lens. Had so much fun with that kit build. I'll be making some more FSM real soon — in fact, the next one in the "Water Tank and Tool Shed".

Hey Craig:

I believe the stone building is A kit. I have one around here somewhere. I can't remember who makes it.
