Hi Phil, That's a build and a half by what I can see, I love the way it all fits together and it all looks a good fit to which is half battle. The undercoating looks impressive so that will help with the weathering on the final finish, well keep it going and very well done.

Hi Tigerace, I do like this build and how your building it, it is certainly looking very strong, and now you have painted most of it makes all the difference, well done and I wish you well with it, looking forward to the next post.

Hi Phil, Looking good, and going by what you have built so far this will be a very large Dio with plenty of options to build and place yourself, the floor looks really good and the windows fit well. Regards Trev. PS. So how long is the build Work in progress: Tombstone (Scratch) - San Francisco 2. -The Mayflower ( scratch by plan).

That is going to be some size, and will look very impressive.  Are you going to put in shattered and bullet ridden holes in the glass windows? Mark

Hi Phil, This is a great build, coming together with interest, we can see the shape of how it will look when finished with all the bits added. Well built Phil Trev Work in progress: Tombstone (Scratch) - San Francisco 2. -The Mayflower ( scratch by plan).
