One "CRASH BARRIER" finished - just needs a little cleaning up and then prime and RUST.Excellent. Don't forget the little hooks that link them together... Andy.
Very colourful,
Depends which shirt you are wearing.Very colourful,
Is that me or the floor ?????
I love a bit of scratch building ingenuity, why buy something when you can make it.
Much more satisfying.
It was good for putting Letraset onto round surfaces - the strange things I have done in the past - hohohohoBest not go there really.
This project is blowing my mind.. :oWhy? It's Martin and it's zombies!
Andy.
What are you trying to say Chris - hohohohohohoMe? Nothing!
I thought you had stopped modelling and gone into hibernation.
Turning rubbish into rubbish. You're a 'model' at recycling!!!!And what do I end up with ??? RUBBISH is the answer - hohohoho
Outside and inside of the front cover for the vending machine - yes Haddock it is soldered at the corners to make it strong - we don't want the zombies to break in do we !!!!!!!Never thought I would ever see a model of a vending machine.
Now off to make the main part of the vending machine.
Amazing what you find on line - just think about our club members and I find things like " I'm not a complete idiot - some parts are missing" and other things that make me think about you lot - hohohohoho - bet that one will get me another clip round the head from Kevin :( :( :( :-[
Thanks Zak will look better when the PVA dries clear and I have added some metal bars and barbed wireIs that to keep you restrained?
Just in case you change your mind Kevin - I have built a wall to hide behind - hohohohoThey look real. 8)
I am now looking forward to Christmas Kevin - hohohohoho
Some sweet wrappers to be placed round the open vending machine - will look like it has been attacked by Zak - hohohoho

The cleaners may be not at work - but a plastic box and wheeeelly bin now under construction, so somebody can clean up.Is that all your thoughts are worth 1p ( should really be 1d - what were they?)
I think you are being very very generous -1p or 1d for MY thoughts - think we should be looking at farthings - hohoho
Just to keep Chris happy now an industrial rubbish bin to put my stuff in -- now only need somebody to clean up all the sweet wrappers.
Yes Kevin but only when I can find a cheap robot.
Thank you for that Kevin, you can have 2 balloons if you find one - Steptoe rides again - hohohoho
Some colour on the bins and boxNice bins. What day do they collect...

Not sure about the support columns in the mall - should I use short ones just in the ground floor( the one on the right) or longer ones that go from the bottom to the top of the first floor ( the one on the left)???????Yes, depends if you want to support the roof.
Very good - hohohoh - no roof will be made or fitted to this model. So which columns will look best, short or tall ?????Yes,
I think at the moment, I will go for the tall ones and this will also give me more space to fasten posters to them.
I vote for the tall ones; ie the columns not the club members!
Back to the diorama Martin. How are the actual zombies coming along?
Yeah. Can't keep up with Kevin without a chair to stand on.I need a chair too but I have to stand it on a box!!!
How do you get on the chair?Yeah. Can't keep up with Kevin without a chair to stand on.I need a chair too but I have to stand it on a box!!!
Here's a thought... Why don't you make a model zombie show diorama. As in a model show with Zombie customers. We could all be in it. :oDon't encourage him!!
Andy.
There would have to be zombie models on display as well.Here's a thought... Why don't you make a model zombie show diorama. As in a model show with Zombie customers. We could all be in it. :oDon't encourage him!!
Andy.
He doesn't need much encouragement! Actually pretty close to zero.Here's a thought... Why don't you make a model zombie show diorama. As in a model show with Zombie customers. We could all be in it. :oDon't encourage him!!

Thanks Chris but slow progress -- just think how many shops Zak would have finished by now ????
Thanks Chris but slow progress -- just think how many shops Zak would have finished by now ????No ones as slow as me. :o Great work Martin.
Thanks Chris but slow progress -- just think how many shops Zak would have finished by now ????Yes Bempton would be inundated with shopping malls! Ho ho ho
Another shop front underway. The bow window is under construction with acrylic, another one has been made from balsa but is not great so will see how this one works out.
Join us Kevin its good fun - will give it a bit more time and then put up a list of the coversI was always a Eurythmics fan. 8)
That's NOT what Zak says - hohohohhoBind Moggling, says it all.
Thank you, what am I missing - everything most likely.I am saying nothing - I am in enough trouble. I have also done posters for all committee members - hohohho
Its a good job that you are such nice person - I don't think.Thank you, what am I missing - everything most likely.I am saying nothing - I am in enough trouble. I have also done posters for all committee members - hohohho
YoHoHo thank you, I think.Ohh arhh?
YoHoHo is the pirate Christmas greeting.
Last section of wall added and some zombie posters added.We need a less reduced picture really to see fully.
The center section is covered with missing person posters - can you find the 3 posters that are not really missing person posters ;) ;) ;) ;)
I think the whole committee is missing!Missing what???
Don't tell him Pike.I think the whole committee is missing!Missing what???
aahhh! now I see :oGrasshopper.
Have you seen your poster Chris - hohohhohoNo. I can't see it, if it's there.
Aye, fame at last! In a zombie diorama no less!At least you are human and not a zombie - now that's given me an idea hohohohohoh
Those men in white coats are coming for you Martin!They came and I sent them to your address - hohohohoho
Those men in white coats are coming for you Martin!They came and I sent them to your address - hohohohoho
Not arrived yet.Those men in white coats are coming for you Martin!They came and I sent them to your address - hohohohoho
And for the zombies?Don't encourage him.
And for the zombies?Still trying to find figures that look like the club committee members - hohohohho
Who me?And for the zombies?Don't encourage him.
Three figures primed black from below and white from aboveI am intrigued to know how this works, I have read about using that idea.
Cant wait to see your work in the flesh. ;DYou zombie you.
Look ok to me!That's because the photo is out of focus - hohohohho
That's a good idea - if it doesn't work well I can blow it up and just have the bits as a damaged sofa - hohohohoAnd have springs poking out?
Your thought patterns are getting very worrying Chris - you will soon be as bad as me - hohohohohI bow to the master.
Look forward to seeing Mk.II being made on Playday 5.Me too.

Are you just finishing off old models or visiting the shelf of shame?Just thought I now don't have a shelf of shame - I have 6 cabinets of shame - just ask Howard - yohoho
