John, Bob — thank you! I always work to make each angle it's own, so I'm very pleased you think so.

Craig,
Fantastic structure craftsmanship modeling and detailing work on this FOS kit.
Hope this commission build will help cover some of the costs of your future FSM visit.

Thanks, Tom!

It will certainly help a little. Then again, got a wife and infant to pay for (we are all taking the trip to sightsee CT & MA)

Given the awful cost of flights right now, I'll be making my pilgrimage in September, though. George was kind enough to set a date for the month over the phone today.

Top notch, Craig.

Looks terrific.

Cheers, Mark.

Looks great Craig! I love the elevation change.

Mark, Steve — thanks guys! Really appreciate it.

Beautiful build. I can see kids jumping up on the railing, and going up on the roof of the building. Inspiring work.

Thank you, Dennis! That's very kind. I'm planning on doing another diorama utilizing this soon.

Thanks, Mark! Love that you see that story. Little rascals probably pulled up the roofing that caused that damage, too.

Wow - I'm just getting caught up on the forum after a few days without enough internet to see pictures. Just plain beautiful work. Like everyone else said.

Okay - I'm going back and look at the pictures one more time.

S&S RR · July 03, 2021, 09:03:26 PM

Okay - after a second look I want to see the layout that will surround this beautiful piece of art.

Keep It Rusty · July 03, 2021, 09:23:03 PM

You're very kind, John. Thank you.

I'm having to reserve myself from a layout as we are due to move soon. Once we are fully settled though, I'll be full-force into one!

Beautiful dio Craig.....wonderful detail work.

Wonderful diorama Craig and a nice setting for this structure with the angles and elevations !!

Perhaps like John, I assumed that this was built for a client as you noted it was a "commission build". Did not understand that this was for you and placement within your eventual layout. Will be interesting to see this placed at some point.

Cheers,
