Absolutely blooming fantastic work there Trev and even more impressive given that this is all completely scratchbuilt! WOW!!  
That church scene looks absolutely spot on to me and the sort of thing you'd see in any Western movie?! Top notch work as always Trev, keep it coming and I eagerly await each of your updates as and when you can find the time.
All the best,
Kev

Hi Kev, Thank you for your valued comments, I will be posting pictures of a group of tents that are made from cocktail sticks and cloth, some will show how the tents were constructed,one has a first floor for storage, that's how it was in 1880. Regards Trev Work in progress: Artesania Stage-Coach.

Hi, Started to build a few Tents these are made from cloth and cocktail sticks, to make the tents I had to make a small jig to hold them in place till set, in the picture you can see mine workers, these figures will have to be hand-painted. Tents were commonplace out west with mine workers and people moving around trying to settle down until they found somewhere to live, also tents were used by the miners for gambling for some it was there last night. .jpg?width=590&height=370&fit=bounds) Regards Trev.

(Apologies for not posting) Hi all, WELLS.FARGO BUILDING. Started to build the Wells Fargo office for my Tombstone town, this will be made from Coffee sticks plyboard, Oak, and plastic for the windows, the entrance has a ticket desk on the Left and invoicing on the right. There will be a waiting area upstairs with small seats and windows. Also, the ground floor at the rear has a small workshop for stagecoach repairs. The picture below shows the main framework this is made from spare Oak I had from another build:   There will be more soon. Thank you for looking in. Regards Trev.

Hi all, Bit more progress to show, the back wall is now placed and behind will be a small workshop to carry out wheel repairs etc, also office furniture at the front and window frames are now fitted. The roof is now partly built but will be removable until the build is finished.    More soon. regards Trev. Work in progress: Artesania Stage-Coach.

Hi Trev, Yet another excellent update on a fascinating build.  With so many buildings in this diorama, I wonder to myself as to how large the base size will be. Will you need an extra large shed to house it. If it does and you have it sorted then crack on, cos I`m loving this scratch building master class.
