Got the Base Coat down now just waiting to get some sand, shrubbery more paint and more foam for the Japanese Bunker. Got the Barbed Wire Done, Wall's are unfinished..did a home made howitzer using parts from Servo's, RC Shock Tower, RC Body Mount Post, Wire Tap's and wire holder's and Cut Carbon Arow Shaft's and a piece from my Tackle Box and a Skoal Tobacco Container lol oh and it only rotates Left to Right but not Vertical. Here's a pic of my U.S. Soldier next to the howie, I haven't opened the Jap Figures yet...I know it's not scale but it was fun building. Sorry only got 2 pics for now:

Just using this cabinet as a mock up of what I want to build. Got more stuff coming in. The 2 Gray 55gal drums are 1/16 scale and made out of a steel rod a buddy made.
