--A lot of fun to create John, im having fun trying to find the suitable scraps needed to create my rural and demolition scenes, thats a challenge in itself but this time I have a lot more vehicles, and now people and hopefully much bigger diorama to work with, could take weeks/months but hopefully I can create a nice realistic scene.....or 2 or 3????????

--What kind of scraps are you after Steve?? Are you talking about wood off cuts, broken laserlite?JohnComment

--Even PC diodes once painted become 44 gallon fuel drums, sawdust become rough dirt/gravel roads, venneer becomes loads, or spliced, a old school country fence, it is endless I tell you!!!
Only limited by imagination mate, and finding suitable items that become something else!!!
thats a challenge, but ive learnt what works, and what dont, so it makes things a tad easier. "Sometimes"
