lightningtiger Posted January 8, 2014 Another hardware store huh? *yawn* Nah I'm just kidding I love your town, would really like to see a riverside like the real Mannum. Yeah, but a different brand.....though it's part of the Mitre 10 group......very commonly found in small country towns......like Mannum it's self. Wait for the supermarket that will go next to it......oop's let the kitty out of the bag there eh ? Even another update now...... Keep watching ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know about the land down under but here in the states it's not uncommon to see seeds in a hardware store. Maybe we'll see some in your town soon.

lightningtiger Posted January 10, 2014 Question.....should the supermarket have a modern frontage or an art deco frontage ? I'm still working on the extra detailing for the Toyota dealer and True Value store.......keep watching for the next update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tomdobs55 Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Question.....should the supermarket have a modern frontage or an art deco frontage ? I'm still working on the extra detailing for the Toyota dealer and True Value store.......keep watching for the next update. I prefer modern, can't wait to see some more pics of the dealership. Can you also show some reference pics of actual Mannum? Edited January 11, 2014 by tomdobs55 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted January 11, 2014 I'm considering a modern design with tan walls similar to the buildings at the end of the street. The Toyota dealer will have a tyre rack as well I hope to build a 4x4 vehicle to go inside. Here are some images from the real town it's self..... More things to come......keep watching !

greg3 Posted January 11, 2014 Looking good LT... As i think i've said before, I love the way you combine realism with the classic open back style!! (I especially like the first pic looking down the street) Looking forward to seeing what comes next!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
