Hi guys
Thanks for the positive comments!
Yep I make the walls, they are cast in Ultracal30 (a hard plaster) this lets me break them up. I sell Flames of War terrain as a bit of a hobby. These bits are from my farmhouse kit but it looks like they go together to make a pretty good 3 story office as well. The kits is modular but it looks like they are even more modular than I expected. I'm having great fun with the CD challenge. If chaps from the US and Switzerland would stop ordering stuff I might get it done a bit faster.
If you chaps are after any tips or tricks or are just stuck trying to work out how to do stuff with your Flames of War terrain just PM me I'm always happy to help out.
Hey Burbsee those bricks that make up the footpath are just tiny squares of thin cardboard. I put down a layer of PVA and then gently use a pin to pick up the squares and place them on the PVA. You gently push the pin into the little square of cardboard and it will pick it up. You then just use the pin to place them on the PVA and they will stick there not to the point of the pin. You will be amazed how quickly you can make a brick wall or footpath.
Cheers
Kim

Yesterday I dusted it off my CD challenge and continued work on it. Isn't it funny how motivation comes and goes. This is how it looks after a couple of hours work this weekend. I've added rubble and floor boards to all stories. I've used the thinnest balsa wood I could buy for the planks and floorboards, 0.8mm. I still need to do a couple of things before I paint it like adding brick work to cover up the thick card I used for basis of the floors and tiles to the roof. Cheers Kim

Looks like you're planning to use it as a display stand for a tank?

I think we need a scenery support network, kind of like AA.
"Hi my name is Kim and its been two weeks since I last touched my Stalingrad chimey."
Bruce "Remember why we are here, fish are friends, recite tha mantra with me now boys." "I am not a mindless eating machine, fish are friends not food"
Oh No thats a totally different support network!! :-)
