Hello Mark, from looking at your mockups, you have quite an ambitious project here. I am looking forward to your progress.

Thanks, Jeff.

It should keep me out of trouble for a while!

Cheers, Mark.

Mark, Cheers,

Those potential colors will look fantastic on the large structure.

Thanks, Tom.

I went into the art shop to get a couple of spray paint cans on Friday.  Hopefully I'll get some colour on this week.

Cheers, Mark.

Hi guys.

Photo 1 - I managed to get most of the parts washed and primed on Sunday.

Photo 2 - I took this snap shot from the other side of the peninsula and I think I've convinced myself that the brewery should remain a rectangle.  I like the flow of the road from here.

Photo 3 - I'm still mocking things up.  As I thought, I really need to mock up this entire corner to make sure things flow well, that the overall shape works, the eye gets lead around the scene nicely, before I decide on whether there needs to be alterations to the diorama shape/ size.  I am making progress.  In this photo you can see my new Tellynott municipal council buildings.  I'll post a bit more on this on my layout thread, as it will no doubt not be on this competition diorama.

More soon, cheers, Mark.

That's a lot of parts, Mark.  I hope you have plenty of glue on hand.
