Auction ended at 260.00; not bad.

I thought I did a pretty good paint job on it, tough to see the detail work from the pictures, a lot of dry brushing mixed with detail work.

The individual roof tiles are a joy to paint; the roof itself took about 10 hours to do...............{sm2}

The Priory turned out to be very useful hospital also. Robin.

Where did you get your backdrop from? Looking for something similar for the BOSS sets diarama I'm building.

This is excellent...so much going on with the figures.

Tables, chairs and bottle add a nice touch, and 'if' that is a 'table or counter top' they are all on, it works great.

The lighting from the left adds a 'morning' setting...like a sunrise.

Thank you for posting.

Nothing special, just a piece of White laminate board I spray painted with Blue, leaving some White showing to represent clouds. Robin.

You guessed it, set up on the kitchen bench, sort of looks like earth. This building and the church will be the last thing I will let go in my collection. These are the only ones in Australia. Robin.

That was a great idea Robin and looks superb:salute:: .....in fact it has given me the idea to get my JG Miniatures Rorkes Drift buildings out of storage for some Boer War settings^&cool

All the best

Wonder if the guy who won it the first time didn't pay, or if something else is going on???

A Conte Church sold for about 275.00?

The value on that thing really cratered, as has the value on a lot of larger scenic pieces............

Religion just ain't what it used to be.

Amen.

The Conte Church and Priority set complete with the resin tombstones, church accessories, priority accessories and the all important back piece that extended one the near wall of the church next to the priority used to fetch 800.00 to 1000.00.

That ship, like many toy soldier related ships, has sailed.........................

Based on EBay, it looks like the market demand for the Conte Playsets
and plastic figures has decreased.
