Hi Guys ...honestly I am still here ....

Greetings after a long time away from blogspot ... some may have found me on Facebook but generally and very much guiltily I have neglected blogspot. So apologies and let me bring you up to speed on what I have been doing in the miniature scene, This is going to be a collage of photos on quite a few topics , some are updates and some are new .... well here we go ...

Start of a Large Project at last .....

 Hi All and Happy New Year and hope that you all had a restful and joyous Xmas. Well New year year new start on a new project. This one is going to be a biggeeee , so thought I would blog progress as it happens. Top left shows the first 3 modules the front entrance, left wing and central staircase. Top right is the central staircase in progress still deciding on a few aspects hence the oddity of the look so far. Centre left and right are the front entrance still be finished but the concept is there. Then below is the front of the right wing with features and texturing in evidence. The project timescale is to be finished by mid May so a lot more to do yet in between other projects and commisions. Will keep you posted .....Merry Miniing !!!

Current Little Project to Share

 Hey Guys .... yes off the cyber web again for a while a bit tied up with a few family matters so forgiveness is begged. Mind you I have managed some hours in the work shed and produced this 1:12 village school/hall/Chapel for a commision. Really enjoyed doing this as I did at one time attend a school like this ...many moon ago.

 Well it is not quite finished as I need to do a floor which I am thinking will be a parkee type floor or slotted boards. It is supposed to be a school but I have hopefully left it open to interpretation just in case. Staged as a Victorian school but as most of these schools are now tranformed into village halls now well its still essentially the same type of structure.
I will dedicate this one to my friends on blogspot that I seem to neglect ... but I will be in touch very soon .... I promize ( Monica :) )

New Model

I feel so guilty nowadays that I don't blog as often as I should so apologies there and welcome to some new people. I really do appreciate your comments and over the last year have used these reference and certainly encouragement .... Big Thankyou
Well I have been busy working on a new project ready for the next show this Sunday in Worthing , my lastest creation is of the fantasy genre and again different techniques but returning to the safe zone of mine the finishes on stonework. Although a bit too dark for my initial preference  the structure and concept I enjoyed making. Well I hope you like this one ... now the plans are on for the next one .... something medieval I think ...but then who knows .... TTFN

Ooops and sorry

Hiya ... Firstly apologies for the strange post yesterday ... with all the changes to Google and Facebook and Picasa so many new buttons to push and try out that I blogged without knowing it .... eeeehhhh!!

Anyway firstly welcome to the new guys following the blog and tremdously big thank you to the posts and comments made by my friends on the previous posts ... only apoligies for not acknowledging them ... ( there you go Monica have a field day with this spelling catastrophe all my own work ... hahaha). As Norma commented previously the last house was out of my comfort zone so guess what I've gone back ... featured walls. If you did have look at the Picasa album then these new ones are the Technicolour( spelling right me British ... haha) release. Each of the brick panels are removable and that will be the next step in the project ... blog when ready. Anyway these pics show as it stands with the colouring added but still awaiting top coating and polishing. By the way it started out as a Halloween grave yard scene ..... mmmm got lost in translation somewhere .... have fun ... Paul
