Re: sidney has entered the building
thanks banjo, the rear panel was looking a bit too fresh so I added some grime and rain water streaks now it all sits more realistically. it however looks very old and knackered now, which is kind of a good thing, but I need to give some clean paint somewhere to prove that it has been actually "fixed"..its all about equilibrium (just need to find out where my equilibrium is!
by the way the tel number is the initial registration date!
heres a couple more

Re: sidney has entered the building
