Wow Unclebutch, they all look great! Thumbs Up 

I can see why the Mayor keeps that thick brush between him and old man Railly Laugh  I can just hear Mrs. Mayor nagging the Mayor "Isn't there something you do can with that man!"  Laugh

I think you should show off more of your stuff in the WPT.

Wow, nice stuff you do.  I especially like the character of the little grey house with the yellow pickup.

The blue one looks like a real place.  I'm still trying to guess how you got such a nice tree in the front yard.

I'd be remiss in not mentioning that your attention to detail is among the best I've ever seen.

I have no experience with carving foam walls and you give me inspiration.

Your building are tremendous, I like the tar covered flashing at the base of the chimney.  I think you need to weather your rail though.

Old man Railly's shack right next to the Mayor's house - perfect! I bet the mayor gets hives just thinking about it.

You did a really nice job on the houses.
