I'd just like to say that you are a craftsman, and that I hate you
I never seem to get the time to realize such projects in such detail, but that's the price you pay for having a wife and kids and mortgage and full-time job. If you now say you have all of the above I will have to hunt you down and
... grill you on just how you manage it...:dry:
Cheers, Craig. | |

Well I have a wife and 2 kids but only one still at home and a full time job i work at 10 to 12 hrs a day at lol and since I dont live with the wife I also have 2 sets of al bills and a house payment. I build a lot of times on my lunch hour and on the weekends. I also buil;d stuff from things that others throw away. like the post that holds the gas station's roof over the pumps up are old ink pens the building it self is made from a old plastic sign that was throw out to the trash. So far the only thing I have bought has been spray paint to paint the roads and the sheet of hard board only have around 30 dollars in it so far. My next buildings i will be making wil be a house that is not all the way built yet . want it to look like they are still building it . I will be useing wooden match stick to build it and printed paper for plywood and beside it I want to build a building being knocked down. not sure yet how I will do that yet. Any other questions or ideas please feel free to ask or say. thanks Tom | |

I think thats brilliant and very original Wolfen,the idea of a building site.Your whole town looks superb and you are clearly putting in alot of work!!.As paul said the interiors are brilliant and i love the church and graveyard,the water tower is a lovely piece of work. I look forward to seeing more:). I how you feel about working full time and finding the time to create,you totally put me to shame i know that. Nice meeting you Wolfen mate,cheers your mate :)tony:) | |

Looks great as always. Keep up the good work and keep us updated. BTW, what rules are you planning to use? | |

Member Posts: 17 |
I haven't pick the rules yet. I am thinking maybe Red Ops 5 from Rebel mini's or All things Zombies from Two Hour War game. | |

Nice work. Love the construction site. If I could start over, I'd go with 15mm. Loads of excellent choices out there. | |

Again more brilliant work wolfen mate,got to agree with Dentatus though 15mm has some nice choices.I was looking at the 15mm nazi zombies at Rebel minis whooo!! and the modern americans,and the 15mm aliens...must resist aahhh!!!!.
Superb yet again Wolfen,:)as always your mate tony:) | |

Thanks for the comments. The main reason I went with 15mm was the cost I cant afford to game in 28mm. It just cost way to much to make a army or horde of any thing. | |
