Madame Moustache's...

I've been working on an addition to New Paddock City for a few days: the Battle Flag 'Bordello'. It's the most ambitious of their kits I've tried so far, especially for someone like me who's not especially gifted in the modelling area of our hobby!

As with my other buildings I've included some interior details from the resin range from Frontline. See what you think.

    1. Yes it is, I agree; in fact all of their kits are wonderful. I can't lay any claim to have done much other than solve a simple 3D jigsaw and add some bits and colour!

  10. I thought that there looks as if there has been a lot of 'personal' research gone into this to create the correct atmosphere! Are you sure Sue has been with you on all these trips to the states?

    1. Great to have you along Mr P & Family! I guess your Great Grand Pappy must have spent some time in New Paddock City as a young wipper-snapper?
