Their believability increases tenfold when you see them together like this ... this can only get more and more impressive.

Most excellent.

Don't botch it up and take some knockout photos when it's complete. This will be like Playmate of the Year for most modelers. -- Russ

The growing family is looking very impressive Marty.  It already has some wonderful appeal and plenty to look at, but am certainly looking forward to seeing all the past life come into the scene as well.  Excellent work.

Cheers,
Dan

Gorgeous... straight up gorgeous.  Playing catch up on the thread - but love the evolution of the building, and it goes without saying that your 1/16th machines are among my favorites.  As big as this is - if you are going "roofless", maybe spread your wings with some Swedish style night lighting shots for variation?

Keep it coming!

I figured the ruled cutting mat was enough.......... :P

Laser done, holes are a scale 1/4" on 1" centers (.015" & .0625")
Thickness is a little more than the usual 1/4" (.025") but could be done a scale 1/4" (.015") if the edges were to be seen.
I was thinking about this for a junk pile.
This one is .025" so I can put the pegs in w/o messing it up.

This is a new laser guy who lives 15 miles from me!
He has LOTS of other things he is going to do for me! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
