Lord Ferguson Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 My god... Damien... this just gets better and better - those shots with the lights on are 100% REAL.... I just love it mate - you really are the master builder. I think your achievements here are worthy of any award - like Garret said.. I've seen plenty of layouts... some good ones. some great ones, even some excellent ones - but this knock them all into a c0cked hat. I really don't know how you do it... I just look at the way you have placed things on the floor.. the oil stained barrels, the oil cans on the window ledge - I could ramble on all day... In short... keep up the good excellent stunning (ok... no word fits here... but you get the picture) work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCB BLOKE Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks for all the comments, glad you all seem to like it. It's taking a long time but I will get there eventually. It all takes time to do 'cos it's done from memory and imagination. Whenever we go out we are always on the lookout for ideas and inspiration, and then it's a case of trial and error until you are happy with the end result. It's not a matter of skill just patience and imagination. Cheers ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
