Curt great job on the saw shed and I agree with Rick the roof looks overdone.

Curt great job on the decks.

The roof looks a little bit to cooked like Rick said.

Afternoon All,

Thanks for following along and your comments Rick, Larry and Jerry.

I actually looked at images of old tin roofs next to salt water and there are a few examples of what I did so that was my reasoning for the roofing.

Ahh. I stand corrected.

Morning All,

Initial layout of components on one of the foam bases. The yellowish brown items (3) are resin sea walls. I did not put the warehouse/office on for the photo to see where the platforms go.

Curt that looks to be quite a large diorama. The areas that are NOT water going to be elevated at all?
Just curious.

That is definitely going to be a big diorama.
Nice to see it starting to come together.

Excellent work so far, many thanks for sharing.

Good Morning,

Thank you Larry, Rick, and Yannis for following along and your kind words.

The large platform at the top of the photo will be over water as will the bottom dock with the shed on it. It will also have a crane mounted on it.

The big gap with nothing in it is where the ship under construction will sit and the area will have an incline into the water.

The rest will be flat ground but I plan on seeing if I can make a small hill after I figure out roads and paths.

Anyway that's the plan.

Howdy Curt,

The layout of the scene looks good. I can't wait to see it all together. The remaining structures promise to be amazing.

Have fun,
mike
