A little work done on the roof.Roof is just placed on it, going to be doing some lattice work so it can be extended to make building larger in future.This is going to be the factory which a locomotive and rail cars will be coming out of.The name of the factory will be Igor Stravinsky's wheel works...LOL.Factory will have a pile of machines(Verlinden) in it along with piles of T 34 wheels.The factory will measure out at 2' x 4' when finished.
I also sealed up the seam on wall corners with white glue and some plaster dust.

Thanks Guys!!!
Many reasons for doing this,but mostly because it brings us joy!!!
This build is being dedicated to my Beagle Luigi for bringing me the great joy that he did.As you know one of our beagles passed away a couple of days ago.
Anyone have a miniature beagle thay are looking to get rid of?I want to put it into this dio.I think someone makes one but cannot remember who???

Ok how about this??

Keeping busy my friends!!!

Put on some lattice work.
Roof went on,put up a back wall,laid down some ground work and got it washed.
Going for a cobblestone road next.I got a pack of DAS Clay to scratch build it.$8 for 2 pounds.Should be enough to make plenty of cobblestone roadway.LOL.Maybe make up some of them sandbags. Falcon did you post the how to on them?
Got a real steal on a bunch of balsa wood today also at hobby lobby 66% off on broken odds and ends.

Forgot heres some more

Falconbacker · « **Reply #42 on:** August 19, 2011, 11:57:53 AM »

Looking good, the cobble stone road out ot DAS should work well for you. I recommend putting a thin layer of elmers white or some wood glue on the board then the clay over it or just rough the base up with some course Sand Paprer and/or both.....

Slimedog1 · « **Reply #43 on:** August 20, 2011, 05:42:01 PM »

Since dedicating this build to Luigi

I have been working on this dio relentlessly.
Here you go buddy!!!!
Some more pics of what I did for you!!!

Slimedog1 · « **Reply #44 on:** August 20, 2011, 05:52:24 PM »

Now some close ups to show you the kind of detail that is going into it.
I hope you guys like the lean to shed.
Got some work done on the scooter as well.Figs are finished also.They will be going back into it as soon as I finish the scratch stowage for it.I made some bed rolls out of tissue paper.
