Barney,

1/35th gets to be more interesting all the time.

I look forward to seeing your progress.

Looks a bit drafty ... but very promising!

Stonework and shelving look good ... think I recognize the Verlinden stove. Neat stuff. -- Dallas

That stove is interesting, I've never seen one with fins around the exterior like that. It does seem like a good way to radiate the heat.

Excellent so far....that wall with the shelves look really great. Nick´s scrapbox seem to have an endless supply of that particular stone wall as it also appeared in another thread from the U.K. the other day.....

Nice start, Barney

Ref: Nick's Scrap Box - Yeah... how does one get access to this magic bin of organic legos?

The trick with Nicks scrap box is - when he looks the other way you dive in - you have to be quick.

Nice picture , Barnabus .

Jerry - its funny you should mention the name -that was my next question - now I know who's wall it is I can now send for some more its the best wall I have seen nice and fine and easy to re-work to the shape of building required and it looks fine for 1/35th scale -anything to avoid catching my fingers in a rat trap at the bottom of Nicks junk box

Marty is so right. I forgot about the new pieces he is making. And I have them already the samples along with Marty.
His walls are just the best being made out there. He can do any scale you need.
