Seeing so many other members great creations inspired me to finish another one of my cameo scenes.


It is not based on anything special, just various figures that I have collected over the years and put together with the usual bits of scrap.
I just made it up as I went along and I think that the cart has come out possibly a bit over scale. Another thing that close up shots like this reveal is that horticultural grit is definitely too large for a general ground cover. But as always when viewed from six feet away it doesn't look too bad.

I like Sharp Sand for a gravel yard/forecourt.

That looks very good I like the cart is the building a model town one??

Jon, yes it is a Modeltown 4bay warehouse in half relief as I didn't have enough room for the full depth building.
A slight disadvantage as I discovered with half relief buildings is that they are not very stable with the winds that we experience here in Norfolk, so I had to secure it to the fencing behind.

Looks good Phil. I think the cart is OK size wise, but would it not have sides at least as high as the rear wheels so that any loading would not foul them. Just a suggestion!
