This is looking a million bucks! (Hope Glen doesn't get any payment ideas... )
Funny seeing one of his constructions with an Allied figure for scale for a change... :-)
Love the 'mezzanine' level in the 2nd and 3rd pics...Some nice angles for interest...
Cheers
Brad
P.S. In the back ground of the first pic I can see a line of scrimmage on the telly... Hope he doesn't have a flutter on the result, as I could see frustration taken out on your structure if he doesn't run the luck!!

Hi Brad,

Glen likes to watch the game on a Sunday and enjoy the odd Millars :-) :-) :-) .

These pics give a much better idsea of the overall building which I think is a brilliant piece of work. He still has some final details to add but it's looking grand.

Cheers

Between this and his full 1/35 ship, Glen Cheyenne is definitely looking at things in a big way. I wouldn't be surprised if he was over 6 feet tall as well :-)
Seriously, impressive work
