Hi Bill and Peter,
Thank you.
Peter, I don't want to give away the whole description, then it becomes just too easy.
My hint go to a big art supply store with a big craft section, have a good look around, and there you will find what you are looking for.
Most of my modelling is more paint-oriented instead of producing an item in 3 dimensions. I will try and paint it, as I get older, my patience is getting less so fast and simple is better.
Cheers

Nice composition Kim. I like how the little roof between the dry goods store and the pub ties it together.

How do you make the corrugated iron? I've been making it by gluing 2 thin sheets of paper together and embossing them over a former before the dries. I can't roll mine like you seem to ba able to.

Impressive work indeed! And this sounds somewhat familiar to me.
But can we really go with an «out oft he box» kit anymore? :'(

Hello all, how are we doing?
My downtown is going forward on a scale of 1/35 to 1/32.
Downtown consists of the Hotel Anchor, the dry goods outlet and a church.
They are all in different stages, and there are issues, yes, I know it all sounds like a relationship
Paper is a big material for me these days, such an accommodating material for paint effects
Cheers

 EMODELS IN THE UK + Many others all do potage to the US     --- EMODELS list them under MINIART Military vehicles
But surely there are many model shops in the US that supply MiniArt models or has Europe stoped sending stuff to the US thanks to Mr T
