Your welcome!

I like the pic of the old clock tower. That might be a good one to use.

Yah I like it alot...It would be so cool to make it so that the clock face fell off at some point and the inner gears are exposed to the elements...

That would be great to do. Clock innards are fascinating and fun.

I was holding back alittle on the conservatory because its in the front yard..But in the back will be private and i can really put some effort into realism..I can build as big and as elaborate as i want..Thinking about abandoned rooms with moss growing and trees inside bursting through...I could build the rooms open like a exterior wall has fell so you can see the interior.....

I can tell this is going to be another amazing project. Where do you find all those great images of the ruins?

I really like that last photo!

Each time I do a search i get these beautiful images of these places...I only have to decide which one...

Shape : Will your ruins be of one particular mansion or a compilation of many ruins so you can work the space as you want ?

Oh my gosh Shape! I am so excited to see this upcoming project I wet my plants! Thank you so much for you and your wife to share these creations.

I've been looking at images of old abandoned and ruined buildings. There are certainly incredible places out there. I can't wait to see what you do.
