That is extremely well done. You should be and have every right to be proud.

What movie is this?!

Fantastic staging Chris -and yes, almost as good as a movie, or from some virtual rendering – because we can really see the craftmanship here. Though the flames and smoke do nicely add to the scenes!

Thank you to everyone for their kind comments, they are very much appreciated.

Please note that the flames and smoke are real. I have burnt replicas of the Mumma farm / barn down and it's ruins will feature when Summers Corps appears at 9.00 AM.

Best wishes,

Chris
