Morning all, so working forward - I have glued down the raised floor for the wood store (no real excitement as it will be mostly covered), but the next move is to work on the brick wall, I am making this a Belgium Grey wall (as it was going from local history and pics of the period) I have done a basic primer and stone Grey coat, next I will make a few different shades of Grey - Light - Dark - Sandy in a few pools in my wet pallet (flower pot drip plate) then randomly paint the bricks the different colours, after leaving to dry I will then add my dry brushing dust - leave to dry then after add a few dark washes. OC.

You have more guts than me for having a go at water spray etc - I think its really difficult to get right. OC.

Good day all, the wall is completed and dry fitted with me little man just for scale, the bottom strip will not be seen when I make up the layers for the grass and cobbles. OC.

Excellent work - really looks the part. OC.

Evening all, more work on my build - I have been detailing my wall measuring the brick spacing then engraving the mortar gaps. Its hard to get across the tiny size of the wall pieces about 12mm tall and 4mm wide and not very long was a real test on my engraving skills. OC.

Lovely work, the cockpit area was my fave part when I built the Revell version some years back. OC.

Evening all, the missing pics from yesterday, also I have started on the wall using Two thicknesses of wood joined together, it will create a left angle wall stepped down on the long run - with bricks scribed into it. OC.

Superbly done Chris. OC.

Evening all, bit more of an update - no pics as phone batt dead again, any way I have been cleaning up the extension to the wood store sanding it level with the existing part, I have also created a false floor to bring it up level with the raised ground (for when I start my ground works) I have also put a coat of PVA over it to lock the wood fibres in ready for painting. OC.

I have been busy again today - I have knocked up the extension to the log store and scribed the tiles (was tricky with the angles) it looks White (it will be later) but its just the same light pine look wood I have been using for the porch - patio etc - its just dry fitted in the pic. OC.
