Further progress

There are now four small vessles alongside the pier - two for the jungle tours and two for the bay tours. More on that later.

Still hunting for that box of crates but found another box with greater variety - just primed for now (already done a while back) but that are the brown things on the 'floating' pier. Again, more soon.

Moved that 'yacht' to the mercantile pier. More...

Both of the warships moved to the navy pier - and the barracks and radio antenna added.

That is a 15 mm sailor in the conning tower of that '25 mm' submarine to show it is easily adaptable to 15 mm - and a gun to be added.

A closer view of the navy barracks and the radio tower. Will paint the tops of the buildings black - but leave the light blue bulbous elements. The radio tower is removable. I have a bunch more I can use to represent an oil field with a bunch of drilling derricks.

WIfe made a telling comment about crowding which really applied to the jungle so I've made it more open by simply crowding jungle bits into small clusters to open up more areas.

Some of the scatter terrain already painted and will be getting used here. Some of the other photos show more of the only primed scatter terrain - quite a few pieces to paint.

A landward view of the naval pier. Both of the warships should get some significant work to improve their look - time permitting. Tramp steamers are current primary effort so not until those two vessels are done since they are important to the game.

An overall view of the table - the commercial district now has the proper underlying texture as do both the industrial and residential areas. A close look will show a number of bits of greenery added to the industrial area closest to the waterfront - will provide some cover. Since they won't show very well in photos, I'll go ahead and list all the signs I've made to add to the game, some simple, some more fun: Carmina Burana Banana Warehouse One Carmina Burana Banana Warehouse Two Jitterbug Java Coffee beans without the civet So strong guaranteeed to give you jitters Oh, Wow, Cacao Sweetest Chocolate Bean Ever!

Una Promesa Solemne That last one is a new addition that I imagined into being yesterday - and using one of those kiosk buildings. Signs are all cut but I still need to provide solid backing before adding them buildings or piers. Just printed them up on my ink jet printer. Last bit of building work is to add some decking to the train station platform. Then it is all about painting. And paperwork but that is progressing nicely.
